Loads for me Unless it is cached Edit: I could even login
Same. I'm in Europe and it loads slowly but it gets there.
And it seems like loading HN is even slower

#42Down for me as well, Operation Timed Out errors on all attempted SSH connections

#43If they used AI to rebuild their system and migrated it Azure, I bet they would stop having all the problems.

#44So down right now...I wonder why they still use https://www.githubstatus.com/ that reports everything is alright when it's not!
If it takes someone to manually change it from green to red, that does seem to defeat the purpose.
Yep, and when money comes into play when you're supposed to meet SLAs, you certainly don't want it being automatic.

#45Seems to be a fairly catastrophic failure. https://github.com/ fails to load. https://www.githubstatus.com/ shows all green as of this writing. Nothing on the twitter yet https://twitter.com/githubstatus edit: The outage is now acknowledged on the status page https://www.githubstatus.com/ edit: EU folks appear to have things working so it looks like a regional network fault
Even the status page isn’t loading for me currently

Possibly, but sometimes with failures this bad you can't get to the page to update it.

No it doesn't. The amount of false alarm alerts you can get with internet based monitoring is more than 0. You could have a BGP route break things for one ISP your monitoring happens to use. You could have a failover event happening where it takes 30 seconds for everything to converge. I have multiple monitors on my app at 1 minute intervals from different vendors and ALWAYS a user will email us within 5 seconds of an issue. It's not realistic for a company to have automatic status updates trigger things without a person manually reviewing them because too many things can go wrong on the automatic status update to cause panic.

Status page is red now, it probably only checks once every couple minutes.
