Here's why I think this is fake:
A company with 40 devs and over 100 employees that lost an entire production db would have surfaced here from the downtime. Other devs would corroborate the story.

I'm also skeptical, but this isn't necessarily true. There's plenty of software being written outside the HN bubble that's totally invisible to us. What if this was some shipping logistics company in Texas City? We'd never know about it; they wouldn't have a trendy dev blog on Medium.
Good point.
Assuming the CTO was honest about what happened.
