us-east-1 was blowing up a bit tonight with ec-2. Maybe it's related.

Was in the middle of a server firewall change and reboot, killed the kernel, booted me out. Had to sweat the recovery a bit.

Something is on fire. Literally or figuratively.

Also... One of the only industries/products where unusable product/seevice (token / context burned) is neither refunded let alone even acknowledged. I wonder how many millions of dollars of inference have been stolen during these outages? First you lose the work in flight, then you lose the time, and finally you lose the token burn for a second time. What a fantastic time to not have any regulations if you're rich and greedy!

Just like a software engineer who gets sick or has to pick up their kids or has an appointment. We're used to this, oddly.

It's called compassion. We accept that humans are imperfect because we too are human and imperfect and it's the right thing to do.

We should hold corporations valued in billions to a higher standard than a single person trying to care for their family.

I'd argue that it's not even corporations anymore of which we should try to hold accountable. It's very clear who is making these calls as the players involved (Musk, Zuckerberg, Altman, Amodei, Thiel, Karp, Luckey, Langley, Nadella, Bezos, Pichai, Tann, etc) want nothing more than to be in the limelight and "preach" to the masses that they know best. They're more brazen year over year as they gain confidence in their unchecked power and continued accrual of wealth. The more money the more disconnected from reality and the stronger assumptions they build. And they have zero compassion. All of these people are dangerous to humanity individually, but when you start to realize how many have emerged and have no filter or checked powers publicly that becomes a truly terrifying thing.

I've recently started reading "End Times Fascism" [0] and it truly encompasses where we are at, how we got here and the bleak future we may be in for if we don't get in front of this now. But this book definitely highlights a lot of what some of the tech community has been seeing and hand waving about for years. The worn out trope that we should hold corporations accountable doesn't work. We should hold the people at the top accountable like other nations do because if they want the limelight then they should bear the responsibility that comes with abuses. The US is becoming a caste system by design. National surveillance, erosion of access to resources for personal compute, bought and paid for politicians and laws that don't apply to the wealthy.

It's actually nothing like that, and is surely not how it's marketed or sold. I guess you're OK paying a monthly fee for Internet and having the access be unavailable for random parts of your working day because you want to anthropomorphize it? The defense with which people will go to bat for these shitty companies is wild.

problems with Grok too ... so i guess Grok 4.7 tried to escape and took control of Colossus datacenter.

When something happens regularly, is it really front page of HN worthy?

Everyone at Anthropic is interviewing a new Claude model which they are about to hire and forgot to monitor their old model and thus it goes down.

If outages like this happened on every major deploy at any other company; this would be viewed as unacceptable, especially if it was something like Google Search going down on every update.

Proof that vibe coded or not, people pay someone else mostly for liability.

I think thats more for being able to have the status page not tied to your own infrastructure.

It’s super easy to just run a totally disconnected synthetic check.

If you host it yourself, an outage on your side might end up taking it offline too.
