Comment on GitHub is down

Comments

Mine looks like (on git push):

  remote: Resolving deltas: 100% (4/4), completed with 4 local objects.
  remote: fatal error in commit_refs
  To $REPO
   ! [remote rejected] main -> main (failure)
  error: failed to push some refs to '$REPO'
Status Page: https://www.githubstatus.com/ -- actually shows red -- it was almost updated as fast as HN.

I think we should applaud this when it actually happens. Far too many services are terrible for this. While I'd rather the service not be down, it makes me feel a bit better if they don't lie about it.

In a world of green, an accurate status page is a radical act.

It's funny when a company like Amazon, which many would think is on the cutting edge of automation, implements their status page as a manually updated static page.

It's not on accident. There's SLA's and other things on the line when the status page officially recognizes an outage.
