My favourite part of this is the "All systems operational" in green at the top. Yet, all systems are clearly not operational.

I have the feeling that this is happening more and more these days. And it's a mayor problem when a large part of your infrastructure is depending on services like Github (composer, etc.)

That's the system that's not operational.

A shame... And the github status webpage says everything is fine.

Let's see how long it takes for people to realize how good an idea it is to rely on this single point of failure for potentially critical systems..

Didn't Github comment on their blog recently [1] on how they were improving and reducing failure detection times? Doesn't speak well for them if it's first on Hacker News and not their own Status page.

tl;dr; > One of the biggest customer-facing effects of this delay was that status.github.com wasn't set to status red until 00:32am UTC, eight minutes after the site became inaccessible. We consider this to be an unacceptably long delay, and will ensure faster communication to our users in the future.

EDIT: "We're investigating some issues with our databases".
