alt Hacker NewsExactly. If my build and test CI takes several hours and it gets interrupted, it really doesn’t matter how long the interruption was. It impacts me all the added time of realizing it stopped, investigating and confirming why it stopped, triggering another run, and continued monitoring.
If anyone was tracking that time they'd realize running your own build servers is cheaper. But capex is kryptonite to MBAs so you get a shitty unreliable cloud service instead.
