Why are there outages everywhere all the time now? AWS, Azure, GitHub, Cloudflare, etc. Is this the result of "vibe coding"? Because before "vibe coding", I don't remember having this many outages around the clock. Just saying.

They fired a ton of employees with no rhyme or reason to cut costs, this was the predictable outcome. It will get worse if it ever gets better.

The funny thing is that the over hiring during the pandemic also had the predictable result of mass lay-offs.

Whoever manages HR should be the ones fired after two back to back disasters like this.

GitHub is pretty easily the most unreliable service I've used in the past five years. Is GitLab better in this regard? At this point my trust in GitHub is essentially zero - they don't deserve my money any longer.

FYI in an emergency you can edit files directly on Github without the need to use git. Edit: ugh... if you rely on GH Actions for workflows though actions/checkout@v4 is also currently experiencing the git issues, so no dice if you depend on that.

FYI in an emergency you can `git push` to and `git pull` from any SSH-capable host without the need to use GitHub.

FYI in an emergency you can SSH to your server and edit files and the DB directly.

Where is your god now, proponents of immutable filesystems?!
