    Meta had a SEV-0 outage today... less than two weeks after Meta's most embarrassing undetected-for-too-long account takeover (also an outage) It's impossible to unsee Meta pushing AI for code + reviews and the end result being more massive outages vs before They are connected

    lmao. Facebook's down because... *drumroll* ... they didn't lint the program that sends its json, and now its malformed. Another classic from the golden age of AI slop code. [image]

    Sorry, yes should have added teams losing ~50% of HC the last few weeks. Mostly as forced reassignment to AI training, then layoffs And yes it's stressful, motivation v low for those not working in the AI org

    @GergelyOrosz Or maybe all those massive layoffs are having a major impact. Sure, the two are connected, but I feel it has more to do with the remaining workforce being too stressed out, overworked, and demoralized.
