Sorry... we probably should have put a CDN in front of our humble Linode box earlier. Here's a cache link: https://web.archive.org/web/20200629103627/https://nimbleind... Edit: Cloudflare seems to be working now. Wow, that was really easy to setup.
Its hard for me to trust your products if you didn't even have a Cloudflare in front. EDIT: I don't imply the product is bad, sorry

#62It could also mean that they are more active and creating more chaos due to more changes. shameless and useless advertising.
That's pretty much their conclusion > [..] GitHub has been down more since the acquisition by Microsoft. But that could be all a part of coordinated effort to be more transparent about their service status, an effort that should be applauded.

:-) Cloudflare is amazing, yes. Everyone should use it by default, I say.
I vote for more diversity rather.

> (a bunch of comments about the UX redesign) I agree. I'll add one: README files with tables now require horizontal scrolling, and that's utterly disappointing. > The "explore" and "trending" functionality I do work in ML and computer vision, and this is how I discover all of the new models and code people are using. It's awesome. > Not sure about others, but i used GitHub as a git host and issue/MR tracker. All the…
Many of my projects have a fixed scope and thus are 'done' at some point. If you develop like this, CI/CD is rarely worth the effort. Its better suited for projects that suffer from scope creep or regular upstream breakages.

They're still averaging 99.81% up-time over the last three months. This means they have been down for a total of 4 hours out of 90 days. I don't think it's all that concerning.
The gold standard here is 5 9s, not 2. They have paying customers that are being inconvenienced by this. We lost time over this multiple times in the last few weeks. So, not good. IMHO they are having some major issues with their release process that they need to address. Standards have slipped there; they used to be better at this.

I imagine this is just for their blog, which is probably an afterthought.

Wow, that's stark. I count 6 in April-June (2 major outages) and only 1 in January-March (0 major outages. I wonder if COVID has affected this somehow. Anecdotally I've heard of at least one other ~peer company with a large rise in incidents/outages since April. Strange since both companies previously had a strong culture of remote work (maybe 1/4 to 1/3 of eng was remote) going into the pandemic, so I'd be quite sur…
If GitHub's been migrating to Azure infrastructure on the backend, it's possible that everyone else moving to all-WfH helped to cause it. Teams use massively increased during lockdown for obvious reasons and that's definitely Azure-based. If Teams managed to overload Azure capacity, I could see that having knock-on effects on GitHub.
No, MS prioritising Teams land grabbery is what caused it.

This is just clickbait. The "GitHub down" schadenfreude has really gotten tired.
