  • GitHub Actions upkeep is down to one 9. I miss the days big tech aimed for four or five 9s of reliability :(

  • > Update - We've identified an issue with a database primary and are failing over to a replica immediately

    Seems like a weird thing to post on a status page. Shouldn't this have happened automatically and therefore precluded the need to inform users of it?

  • >Update - primary failover briefly improved performance but did not fully mitigate, we've throttled inbound traffic and are investigating upstream Vitess issues

    And now they're blaming their upstream vendor! Embarrassing stuff to be writing on a public page.

  • Things can go wrong, but really, its been a lot and we're normalizing that to an unhealthy degree...

    I wonder if it was down that much, if users would get credits the way we pay when we use the services - its kind of ridiculous for a critical service to be down that much and all we do is "ah okay, its just github". Like, as if that was normal to be down that much...

  • Fun read about Azure and having 173 agents running a node: https://isolveproblems.substack.com/p/how-microsoft-vaporize...

    Probably just a coincidence that Github started to have issues after beginning their move to Azure at the end of last year.
