AWS, Azure, now Cloudflare, all within a month, are hit with configuration errors that are definitely neither signs of more surveillance gear being added by government agencies nor attacks by hostile powers. It's a shame that these fine services that everyone apparently needs and that worked so well for so long without a problem suddenly all have problems at the same time.

- lc64 11mo agoAWS was not a configuration error, it was a race condition on their load balancer's automated DNS record attribution that caused empty DNS records. As that issue was being fixed, it cascaded into further, more complex issues overloading EC2 instance provisioning.
