Yet here we are.
I just don't feel comfortable with you defending the trillion dollar company as if we owe them something, or as if they're somehow the victim in all of this.
I can buy that there's more demand for service, but;
A) They are the ones pushing the AI hype (microsoft especially but github too)
B) These issues existed before the AI hype anyway
and, obviously:
C) We're not saying they're bad engineers, we're saying it's become a bad service... THAT is everyones problem, managements especially. We're not attacking the developers specifically, we're attacking the state of a core service that is failing.
Pointing out that attackers are targeting the wrong area is not defending anyone my friend.
I’m just saying that scaling is very likely the issue, no reason not to believe their own statements on that. And yes they are to blame for their own success here.
