beautiful visualization of "complex systems run in degraded mode"

  • What a great capsule of wisdom!

    There is still a tendency within some parts of aviation (safety auditing) to look for root causes and use tools like "fish bone diagrams" despite the more holistic approach used after an actual crash or incident.

  • A bunch of different services on a single status page doesn’t make it a complex system. Most of these have no relation to each other other than the high level services on the cloud providers.

      you're it does not.

      so, some of them are related to each other? some of them even share underlying infrastructure? perhaps multiple of these are considered infrastructure for some teams?

      what is the point you're trying to make?

Maybe try using <wbr> for example Cloud<wbr>flare or mongo<wbr>db for more natural break on small screens.

I'm assuming there's an optimisation in the source of this:

``` if(github) return false ```

Yeah, highly inaccurate data. Shows Auth0 with an uptime of 0.6% over 24h. Smells like a slop project.

  • Well if you count every minor service outage which maybe 0.1% of the users are non-critically affected by, you quickly get to 0.6%. So, this doesn't really tell you anything.
