Lol.
I think target found a new employee.
Not a bad diagnosis, sounds like a nice theory.
What I don't get a company so big with orders being placed by the minute should have a team set up for errors like this. Where in a matter of time or in one day there should be an alert to say 500 members bought 20 oils each? And that never happened in the past 15 years, or all of the sudden people became health freaks and ordered orders of 50 jars oatmeal from 1000 members..
Target has been having technical troubles this entire week. This is nothing compared to what happened when all the store registers across the country went down for two hours this week. They lost an estimated $50 million in sales. They are failing badly in the software division.
That said, thankfully there aren't 500 people doing this. Vehamayvin Yovin.
Really interesting. A small pricing error or whatever I can understand but such a breach? Almost like dan and his tesla forum takeover.
As someone who is familiar with writing code, I can tell you that this type of breach is actually very easy to occur. What stops these kind of breaches is writing good code and rigorous testing, multiple times over. I can understand that integrating Shipt is a major project, but it should never go live until it's tested by a large team of people that actively look for problems, not by some nerds sitting at a desk.
