- viraptor 6y agoBut it becomes uninteresting, which causes self-censorship. How many times did you hear about someone's server running for 12 minutes? How many times about server running for over a year? Nobody posts about the first one. (Unless it was a spectacular failure for some reason) Similar issue comes with estimating how reliable things are. People are more likely to respond "I had an issue with X too, here's my story" rather than "all good, nothing to report".
