#52so annoying, what am I paying for if this goes down like this? oh wait...
You say that sarcastically, but I imagine that many brands, who have advertising campaigns scheduled for one of the more lucrative days of the week, will be less amused.
With a PPC/CPM model Twitter is internalizing all the losses...
Do they have different models?

"var d = new Date();
var n = d.getFullYear();"
That's what most people used JavaScript for before AJAX...

#56Gah. I'd just posted a really good reply to three people, then had a followup when it died. The essence of comedy is timing.

#58There will be a lot of graphs that don't look great around the operations team. I wonder how much of an impact each minute that the service is down has on their uptime %.

Well, that's simple math: A year has roughly 525600 minutes, that makes one minute about 0.000190258752 % of the potential uptime.
Monthly, weekly, daily uptime calculations are left as an exercise to the reader, as well as proper calculations for leap years.

As far as I know, it doesn't have to (shouldn't?) be updated for the current year if it doesn't change.
From http://www.copyright.gov/title17/92chap4.html#401:
If a notice appears on the copies, it shall consist of the following three elements:
(1) the symbol © (the letter C in a circle), or the word “Copyright”, or the abbreviation “Copr.”; and
(2) the year of first publication of the work
If they haven't touched this page since 2012 (totally reasonable), I think it should be 2012.
This blog post (http://www.photoattorney.com/qa-what-year-should-i-use-for-m...) also mentions that you can use a range for when it covers multiple years of publication (like a blog).

Hm, why the down vote? If updating when the topic in question changes isn't contributing, how are the million "twitter's down" dupes?
