Obviously anyone can "take credit" for things like this, but if this[1] is true, then jesus.

Edit: Since it's topical, I enjoy listening to Chuck Rossi in interviews or presentations. Releng 2014 - Keynote 1: Chuck Rossi, Release Engineering, Facebook Inc. | Talks at Google [2]

I restarted my modem and router two times before I realized that the network was fine and that it was just Facebook that was down. Props to their ops team for uptime that is so reliable.

Restarting your modem is step 1 in troubleshooting internet connectivity problems when Facebook is down?

It's almost like he mentioned it because he realized it was silly after the fact and wanted to share that bit of mirth with us.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

$7.87 billion in 2013 / 365 days / 24 hours / 60 minutes / 60 seconds is about $250 a second. Edit: using more up to date data: $3,300,000,000 in the 3rd quarter of 2014 / (365/4) / 24 / 60 / 60 = $418.58

$1.5M an hour!!! But considering this is not the peak time in North America, it's should be little less.

Yeah but I wonder if actually more people will net log in because everyone is talking about it being down.
