GitHub Actions and Pages are experiencing degraded availability

man.. again?

Can't wait for the Graphite/Cursor alternative (Origin) to become available. Actions being down for an hour in the middle of the US East workday is crazy. It's super frustrating to be an enterprise customer of Github, seems like we don't get any dedicated resources or additional stability. At this point our only option is self-host github enterprise or move away.

any 9s left?

there is one 9 of uptime, but the dashboard hasn't been updated yet: https://mrshu.github.io/github-statuses/

Once this goes in, I'd expect to see 89%, which is zero nines. (I'd like to say, "a new low!", but sadly we've had this before)

Someone needs to work on improving the way Actions deals with resource exhaustion like this. Today it exploded all the CI jobs with "failed" and an inscrutable message about "The job was not acquired by Runner of type hosted even after multiple attempts" then "Internal server error". It should say "Timed out due to no runner available, our apologies, try again later, or pay $$$ here to get priority for runners".
