CrowdStrike, the cybersecurity firm that crashed millions of computers with a botched update all over the world last week, is offering its partners a $10 Uber Eats gift card as an apology, according to several people who say they received the gift card, as well as a source who also received one.

On Tuesday, a source told TechCrunch that they received an email from CrowdStrike offering them the gift card because the company recognizes "the additional work that the July 19 incident has caused."

    In 2004 we had a Mexican lunch spot that ran $2 lunch specials (when most lunches ran $6 to $10 in the neighborhood.) We had to "correct" some engineers who thought they should still tip 15% to the waitress who brought endless chips and salsa and kept the drinks full.

    Still, the big plate of flaming fajitas with shrimp and steak has never been cheap.
