Obviously just speculation, but maybe don't let AI write your code... Microsoft CEO says up to 30% of the company’s code was written by AI https://techcrunch.com/2025/04/29/microsoft-ceo-says-up-to-3...
Time to leak that.
Why are there outages everywhere all the time now? AWS, Azure, GitHub, Cloudflare, etc. Is this the result of "vibe coding"? Because before "vibe coding", I don't remember having this many outages around the clock. Just saying.
I think it has more to do with layoffs. "Why do we need so many people to keep things running!?! We never have downtime!!"
I have a serious question, not trying to start a flame war. A. Are these major issues with cloud/SaaS tools becoming more common, or is it just that they get a lot more coverage now? It seems like we see major issues across AWS, GCP, Azure, Github, etc. at least monthly now and I don't remember that being the case in the past. B. If it's becoming more common, what are the reasons? I can think of a few, but I don't kn…

I thought I was going crazy when I couldn't push changes but now it seems it's time to just call it for the day. Back at it tomorrow.

FYI in an emergency you can edit files directly on Github without the need to use git. Edit: ugh... if you rely on GH Actions for workflows though actions/checkout@v4 is also currently experiencing the git issues, so no dice if you depend on that.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
FYI in an emergency you can `git push` to and `git pull` from any SSH-capable host without the need to use GitHub.
FYI in an emergency you can SSH to your server and edit files and the DB directly. Where is your god now, proponents of immutable filesystems?!
I started packing things into docker containers because of that. Makes it a bit more of a hassle to change things in production.
