If you listen closely you can hear the sound of continuous integration builds around the world breaking

Yup, a coworker was wondering why a build failed, a minute later I saw this.

Well, it's not like we have invented binary and source packages two decades ago, so people don't need to re-download and re-build their build-time dependencies every time they start compilation.

Oh wait, we have.

scary... "remote: Unexpected system error after push was received. remote: These changes may not be reflected on github.com! remote: Your unique error code: 7527a6e1bbc9fe126d51c97feac7b4e3 remote: Unexpected system error after push was received. remote: These changes may not be reflected on github.com! remote: Your unique error code: 7527a6e1bbc9fe126d51c97feac7b4e3"

Regardless, most dependencies are on GitHub which breaks bower install for most people. It's crazy how much infrastructure relies on this single point of failure.

Aren't npm installs actually hosted on npm? This shouldn't affect npm installs.

Oh wow, color me surprised. I edited my comment.

  while true; do curl -s https://status.github.com/api/status.json | grep good && tput bel || echo -n .; sleep 1; done
