I have the feeling that this is happening more and more these days. And it's a mayor problem when a large part of your infrastructure is depending on services like Github (composer, etc.)

My favourite part of this is the "All systems operational" in green at the top. Yet, all systems are clearly not operational.

The graphs show the downtime even while the green was at the top. My guess would be that its just something that someone as to toggle.

Let's see how long it takes for people to realize how good an idea it is to rely on this single point of failure for potentially critical systems..

It's an issue for people at large to have this shared point of failure, but not for any particular individual.

It's kind of ironic when one realizes that one of the major design goals of git was to be distributed, to reduce dependency on a single point of failure.

Being down for the equivalent of 3 days/year isn't great.
