Hell, maybe making today's tech workplace more about getting work done instead of the series of ritualistic performances that the average tech workday has degenerated to might help too.

Many companies on Vercel don't think to have a strategy to be resilient to these outages. I rarely see Google, Ably and others serious about distributed systems being down.
