"We'll be carefully rolling this out starting shortly" .. oopsie, debug mode in production commence.

The question is how are they gonna fix it without stackoverflow?

Circular dependency confirmed. Now we need someone to start StackStorageFlow and archive stackoverflow with search function to avoid this circular dependency.

Well it would be a bad time for another significant service to unexpectedly go down at this time wouldn't it?

Time to get out Dash Docs or UNIX man pages then.

"We're having a SQL Server instability issue and digging into it now."

What's up here? I don't see any updates on their twitter or blog.

What am I gonna do the rest of the day??

Time to go home

In case anyone is in need of immediate assistance, Experts Exchange is still working (make sure to include the dash.)

Does not seem like planned downtime

Yeah, not routine at 9am pacific.

Is it just me, or is the site extra fast now that it's finally back up?

Correction: Now they’re back up, but in read-only mode

I wonder what the global GDP impact is of StackOverflow being down.
