When you're a public company the risk of your automated system saying something that invokes more fear than is necessary gets a lot higher.

- dmitrygr 6y agoYup, that is also why the status page now says things are "9/10 up" and for the first 20 minutes said "something is maybe slightly kinda wrong" nad not "outage". As if pretending nothing is wrong will make things right again.
- _jal 6y agoYep. I would be surprised to learn of non-infrastructure companies that wired their public outage notice directly to automated monitors with no human confirmation.
