Downdetector is down
Downdetector is down
When half the websites I visited wouldn't load this morning, I figured I'd check downdetector (https://downdetector.com) to see if Cloudflare was down, but I couldn't. Because Cloudflare was down.
Distributed systems sound great, but the way the industry rushed to crown a handful of winners like AWS and Cloudflare had the net effect of merely increasing the number of single points of failure in the chain.

A cruel irony of coding agents is that everyone who blew off automated testing for the past 20 years is now telling the AI to do TDD all the time.
But because LLMs were trained on decades of their shitty tests, the agents are also terrible at testing.

In just the past week or so, Russia has bombed a US factory in Ukraine, bombed an EU office in Ukraine, and jammed the navigation system on a plane carrying the EU president, forcing the pilots to land using paper maps.

Deep in the Russian heartland, hundreds of kilometers from home, Ukrainian prisoners of war were tormented by a sadistic doctor. Reporters set out to unmask him.

Earlier, many accounts here wrote about a small boy being rescued from the rubble to the joy of his parents. But they didn't check. I did.
