GitHub Actions is just a way to build a remote single point of failure into your pipeline. I don't get why people do this. If GitHub goes down, or has problems for whatever reasons it can interfere with your deliverables to customers. I learned early in my career not to trust 3rd parties as any part of any mission critical process. 3rd parties will always fail you, it's just a matter of time.
- kelseydh 2y agoWith widespread dependencies like AWS or Github, if they go down.. you benefit from everybody else also going down. Downtime of that kind means a lot of media coverage and an easier/more understanding conversation with your affected customers. The worst kind of downtime is when you go down but nobody else has.

- quantadev 2y agoI think it was all about "having excuses" for one's bad decisions, to avoid taking responsibility. lol.
