first they roll out this awful notification ... idk what to even call it, monstrosity, now they're having issues with availability. I hate Microsoft so much, and I hate the guy who sold it to Microsoft even more.

They must have been anticipating this happening more often, given the replacement of the raging unicorn with a sad squidcat (or is it a catsquid?)

Geeze, so many outages/impacts (12+) in the last 90 days. The status page looks like a Pez dispenser. https://www.githubstatus.com/ https://www.githubstatus.com/ Usually companies put in place a release freeze or "Code Purple" when there are such demonstrated problems with releasing stable code.

  These may be the challenges with a "Continous Deployment" approach. Companies usually fill these unknowns. Gitlab releases a version once every month. Not sure how they deploy on the hosted version.

If only there was a version control system for distributed software development that wasn't completely reliant on a centralized client-server model and frequent check-ins.

  git enables that. git is a dvcs. centralized Github is your bottleneck. DevOps/SysAdmins usually plan for SPOFs (single points of failures) when using a service, but having github as the central store defeats that purpose. This again comes back to tools and integrations offered.

    My comment was sarcastic if that wasn't clear, pointing out the massive irony of the entire current development ecosystem that's often highly centralized yet built atop a system designed at a fundamental level to be decentralized.

Ha, I'd seen all these on HN for the past week or two but was lucky and unaffected. Our CI/CD is currently failing due to an npm dependency that lives on Github. Time to start looking into that NPM mirror thing folks talk about?
