Did you really go through the trouble of creating an account just to spit trash? Damn!

This is not good. One major outage? Something exceptional. Several outages in a short time? As someone thats worked in operations, I have empathy; there are so many “temp havks” that are put in place for incidents. but the rest of the world won’t… they’re gonna suffer a massive reputation loss if this goes on as long as the last one.
Absolutely. I wouldn’t be surprised if they turned the heat up a little after the last incident. The result? Even more incidents.
IMHO, the main advantage of github is that it is an ecosystem. This is a well-thought-out Swiss knife: a pioneering (but no longer new) PR system, convenient issues, as well as a well-formed CI system with many developed actions and free runners. In addition, it is best to use code navigation simply in a web browser. You write code, and almost everything works effortlessly. Having a sponsorship system is also great, you don't have to search for external donation platforms and post weird links in your profile/repository.
All in one, that's why developers like it so much. The obsession with AI makes me nervous, but the advantages still outweigh, as for me, the average developer. For now.
> a well-formed CI system
Man :| no. I genuinely understand the convenience of using Actions, but it's a horrible product.
Tři oříšky pro Popelku. There's no competition.

The tone is off. Cloudflare shared a post-mortem on the same day as the incident. It's unreasonable to throw a "I wish technical organisations would be more thorough in investigating accidents".
With that said, I would also like to know how it took them ~2 hours to see the error. That's a long, long time.

João, you're going to have to work a lot harder than this to cancel Matz.
You misspelled accountable.

Did you stop reading 2 sentences in to my last comment?
Do you want to debate or continue with the gaslighting?

> have a lot of respect for Rich, but he wasn't a maintainer.
LMAO
No. He's one of the few people on the planet that could lay claim to it's copyright. He also gave the insight that Rubygems has literally ALWAYS been a part of RubyCentral.
Copyright? WTF are you talking about? Who's talking about copyright? Did or didn't RC perform a hostile takeover of the repos?

Why in the everloving cosmic fuck did he not tell them? In a great many circumstances what he did is a crime. Nobody's coming after him on this but if this was me I would paper the everloving fuck out of what I did so there wasn't even a possibility that the owner of the account had any uncertainty as to what happened.
I don't know what happened with "the repos", is why I haven't offered an opinion about it. I have a professional interest in stories about people gaining unauthorized access to accounts. I assure you, the law doesn't weigh one party's transgression against the other the way you suggest it should.
I find your obsession over Andre's fault and disdain towards the stealing of the repos by RC amusing.
And you know what? I think you're right! What Andre did could constitute a crime. Any serious organization would lawyer up and go after him... right? RIGHT?
Good luck. Give the avionics guys a call if you solve this at the language level.
