I can't comment as to multi-region, but we saw issues last night at around 6pm UTC, which look similar to the ongoing issues we are seeing.

We've been having 'fun' with ongoing issues for a site since 6pm UTC yesterday, which got dramatically worse this morning...and having been recurring during the day. Having multipl…

Yeah, it's terrible. You can't give read only Oauth access to private repos....it has to be read/write. Which means if you want to use online CI tools with those private repos....y…

From the fine article: 1. Customer places an order. 2. SYN: Can I charge $30? 3. SYN/ACK: Yes. 4. ACK + SYN: Do it. 5. SYN/ACK: I am gonna do it. 6. ACK: I see that you're gonna do…

The slowness appears to be caused by continual directory scanning. For me at least, turning off the "Refresh when files change" option, and so having to do "view, refresh" or Comma…

This is actually quite revealing. Some people think that PHP is just used for the same small web pages it was used for 15 years ago. Other people would like to use PHP more as a ge…

PHP has had type-hints for parameters for several version, but they could only be used for classes. The new types-hints cover the 'scalar' values (aka not object) and are int, floa…
