Good thing git was designed as a decentralized revision control system, so you don’t really need GitHub. It’s just a nice convenience
You just lose the "hub" of connecting others and providing a way to collaborate with others with rich discussions.

Re: GitHub: Git operation failures
#112I have a serious question, not trying to start a flame war. A. Are these major issues with cloud/SaaS tools becoming more common, or is it just that they get a lot more coverage now? It seems like we see major issues across AWS, GCP, Azure, Github, etc. at least monthly now and I don't remember that being the case in the past. B. If it's becoming more common, what are the reasons? I can think of a few, but I don't kn…
I think it's cancer, and it's getting worse.

It certainly feels that way, though it may be an instance of availability bias. Not sure what's causing it - maybe extra load from AI bots (certainly a lot of smaller sites complain about it, maybe major providers feel the pain too), maybe some kind of general quality erosion... It's certainly something that is waiting for a serious research.

#114Centralized internet continues to show it's wonderful benefits.
At least microsoft decided we all deserve a couple hour break from work.

#116It is insane how many failures we've been getting lately, especially related to actions. * jobs not being picked up * jobs not being able to be cancelled * jobs running but showing up as failed * jobs showing up as failed but not running * jobs showing containers as pushed successfully to GitHub's registry, but then we get errors while pulling them * ID token failures (E_FAIL) and timeouts. I don't know if this is re…

Looking around, I noticed that many senior, experienced individuals were laid off, sometimes replaced by juniors/contractors without institutional knowledge or experience. That's especially evident in ops/support, where the management believes those departments should have a smaller budget.

#119I remember a colleague setting up a CI/CD system (on an aaS obviously) depending on Docker, npm, and who knows what else... I thought "I wonder what % of time all those systems are actually up at the same time"
