#7The fact that Github has been so unstable for so long is absolutely insane to me. I know ops is hard, but this level of consistent outage points to an endemic problem. Is it the legacy rails/mysql stack that is the largest culprit or is there systemic rot in the engineering org?

#8Still having regular incidents at GitHub in 2024, even with Microsoft's infrastructure after 5 years since the acquisition with something always going down.
Just expect GitHub to go down at least once every month as it is that unreliable.
This certainly has aged well: [0]

More likely, it's efforts to migrate away from the previously solid Rails stack to MS's preferred stack.
They've had a long history of this kind of stability issue when migrating or trying to migrate acquisitions from their previous stack to an MS one. This happened with Hotmail (Unix server -> Windows server), LinkedIn (custom cloud -> MS cloud) and others since.
