Yeah, Gitlab has had its share of downtime. Github has had shockingly little until the last year or two. These things come and go.

- tnorthcutt 3y agoFWIW the typical phrase is "en masse" (which is French). The English translation is "in mass".
- CharlesW 3y agoThe English translation would be something like, “all together, at the same time”. “In mass” isn’t an English idiom.
- krapp 3y ago"en masse" is the term used in English as well.
- CharlesW 3y agoYep, just noting for anyone who may not realize that "in mass" isn't really a thing in English. As you note, en masse is common — enough so that you even don't need to italicize it (although you can).
- capableweb 3y agoIf you're brave enough, you can italicize whatever you want.
