Getting intermittent 500s browsing repositories right now.
Hugs to the GitHub ops team.

We have a slack channel that monitors GitHub availability. There’s content there nearly 3-4 times a week. It’s amazing how awful this has become.

In the old days we had mirrors for many online repositories.

And just as we're about to migrate 4 kubernetes clusters with a total of ~4k pods. Terraform in github actions on selfhosted runners and argoCD is failing.

Happy I'm not in a hurry with any specific work items today. Hope it's not too much of a mess to figure out for the github peeps. Much love to them.

GitHub having issues?
Sounds like all in good order then ...

Wouldn't it be wonderful if the most popular version control system was is decentralized? This is achievable, and is the correct solution.
This way your git repo could be located on: - GitHub - Your Closet (...) - UCLA's supercomputer - JBOD in Max Planck Institute (...) - GitLab
Doing this with a simple file with "[ipfs, github, gitlab]" on it would be revolutionary, especially for data version control, like nn weights or databases that are too large for git and cost too much on other services, as they would be free on ipf/torrent.
Then no one is phased by the inevitable failure of various companies.

Still having regular incidents at GitHub in 2024, even with Microsoft's infrastructure after 5 years since the acquisition with something always going down.
Just expect GitHub to go down at least once every month as it is that unreliable.
This certainly has aged well: [0]

It really feels like the frequency of this happening has increased lately. Are they facing high employee turnover?
_Maybe it’s time for rewriting it in Rust._
Edit: RIIR was said in jest. I forgot HN doesn’t support markdown.

Whoops guess that was one too many PRs.
Sorry everyone!

Phew, I thought it was because I am in Puerto Rico. Has GitHub or Microsoft done any bigelayoffs?

Run for your liveeeees!
The fact that Github has been so unstable for so long is absolutely insane to me. I know ops is hard, but this level of consistent outage points to an endemic problem. Is it the legacy rails/mysql stack that is the largest culprit or is there systemic rot in the engineering org?
