Re: GitHub is once again down

I've been sitting here waiting for a critical deploy to happen via GitHub Actions (I know, hour fault, we should have left ages ago). My patience for this bullshit is gone, I'm going to be pushing very hard to get us off of GitHub entirely except for public code mirrors going forward.

Edit: oh look, their site says all good, but I still have jobs stuck. What a pile of garbage.

I'm so sick of this.

Fuck sake. Again?

Sorry, I realise this comment isn't up to HN's usual standards for thoughtfulness and it is perhaps a bit inflammatory but... look, I'd bet the majority of us on this site rely on GitHub and I can't be the only one becoming incredibly frustrated with its recent unreliability[0]?

(And, yes, I did enough basic data analysis to confirm that it IS indeed getting worse versus a year, two years, and three years ago, and is particularly bad since the start of this year.)

[0] EDIT: clearly not from looking at the rest of the comments in this discussion.

GitHub goes down at least once a week as I said before. [0] thanks to Copilot, Tay.ai and Zoe chatbots wrecking the platform instead of humans maintaining it. If there was a prediction market for when GitHub experiences an outage every week, then you would make a lot of money. [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47487881
