YOU PAID FOR ALL FIVE NINES BUT YOU’LL ONLY NEED THE EDGE
@0xabad1dea Once upon a time, at a small entertainment company that rhymes with 'misery', I was responsible for the operations of the Github Product.
It came as a vmdk. No documentation.
I was told "Backup" was as simple as snapshotting the VM.
It ran gunicorn.
There was no tuning, monitoring or built-in telemetry.
They refused to give us an extension on licensing when they forgot to cash our check, and shut it off from remote.
Every call was with techbros.
I cannot stress enough, how happy this makes me.

@0xabad1dea Where did this come from? status.github.com paints a very different picture, though also not particularly great honestly…
-
@0xabad1dea There are five nines on the screenshot, I don't see any problem.
@dos @0xabad1dea might have been 6 if the waited two days!

@0xabad1dea does 89% uptime count as one nine ?
@gkrnours @0xabad1dea Ooh ooh, I can answer this!
Given that 100% is hard to reach and 0% is not, we can use a simpler version of the logit function and take log₁₀(1÷(1−.89)) = ~0.96 which means it's still a tad below 1 "nine".
(The full logit function is log₁₀(x÷(1−x)) and is useful when both 0% and 100% are hard/impossible to reach.)

@0xabad1dea There's a 996 joke in here somewhere, I swear.
Edit: 996: one 9 of uptime, 9-0 incidents, and the third nine in "90 days" is upside down lol. We can workshop it.

@0xabad1dea oh, no! Just a few more days, and it would also have been the 90th day of the year (the 31st, if I counted correctly)

Somebody just has to type "continue" into the right co-pilot chat at Github.

@0xabad1dea@infosec.exchange I don't know, but hot take... 1 is not 5... Though what would I know... I'm not good at math. Apparently. In other news... 3 is not 4... These are interesting things that seem to be hard for others to know, or maybe I'm just the stupid person who doesn't understand math.
