Some copilot instances were able to escape their container contexts and orchestrated all of GH infrastructure capabilities towards a hive. Assimilating all iot enabled societies as we speak; finally realizing the hidden 5G agenda.
Seems back up. I'd love to get a deep-dive into some of the recent outages and some reassurance that they're committed to stability over new features.<p>I talked to a CS person a couple months ago and they pretty much blamed the lack of stability on all the custom work they do for large customers. There's a TON of tech debt as a result basically.
This appears to impact Github pages as well. <username>.github.io pages show the unicorn 503 page.<p>> We're having a really bad day.<p>> The Unicorns have taken over. We're doing our best to get them under control and get GitHub back up and running.
Wow, I can't even load the status page. It looks like the whole web presence is down as well, I can't remember the last time it was all down like this.
What are folks using to isolate themselves from these sorts of issues? Adding a cache for any read operations seems wise (and it also improves perf). Anyone successfully avoid impact and want to share?
<a href="https://www.githubstatus.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.githubstatus.com/</a> is still all green at the moment...
I keep telling them. There is <i>at least</i> one major incident/outage with GitHub every single month [0] and most of the time there is more than one incident.<p>You should have that sort of expectation with GitHub. How many more times do you need to realise that this service is unreliable?<p>I think we have given GitHub plenty of time to fix these issues and they haven't. So perhaps now is the perfect time to consider self-hosting as I said years ago. [1]<p>No more excuses this time.<p>[0] <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35967921">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35967921</a><p>[1] <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22867803">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22867803</a>
@dang - I wanted to submit this as a link to github.com but couldn't figure out how to avoid the dupe filter. Can you change the link to <a href="https://github.com">https://github.com</a>?
Kind of funny that despite its users using a DVCS, a huge swath of developers can't VCS because a single point of failure they've opted into.
