Shouting will not prevent errors, and you are only creating a hostile work environment where not acting is better than the risk of making a mistake and triggering an aggressive response from your part.

Cloud in general was a mistake. We took a system explicitly designed for decentralization and resilience and centralized it and created a few neat points of failure to take the whole damn thing down.

It took me a while to understand it, but the beauty of it is that when it fails, lot of things fail.

Almost no one gets mad if your site and half the internet were down.

Looks like the status page is suffering too because it can't load jQuery:

(index):64 Uncaught ReferenceError: $ is not defined at (index):64:3

Wow, so much is down. Nothing Cloudflare protected is loading for me in Indiana, and the Cloudflare dashboard is broken as well.

I hope it gets resolved in the next hour or two, or it could be a serious problem for me.

Everyone laughs when AWS collapses, everyone is silent when Cloudflare collapses. Why? Because the place to laugh has collapsed.

This would be true in the past but now most people are not on Twitter.
