I feel for the people in the trenches on this one. It’s got to suck bad.

  In the immediate short term, yes, obviously - stress, long hours, etc. In the immediate aftermath, probably too: Burdensome mandates from management that isn't always aware of reality to "make sure this never happens again". But if the organization is functional, in the medium term, this may also mean staffing understaffed teams, hiring SREs, etc. - which can mean less stress, no more 24/7 pager duty, better pay etc.

    They are still a public company so I guess we will see the damage on Monday. Might be an opportunity to buy low.

    > Burdensome mandates from management that isn't always aware of reality to "make sure this never happens again". When something like this threatens to end the entire party (no one pays or get paid) you god damn want to figure out why and not make it happen again. That’s not burdensome, that’s business.
