yeah sure, if your business is one of the 500 startups on HN creating inane shit like a notes app or a calendar, but outages can affect genuine companies that people rely on

I've been involved in public outages (i.e. major newspapers wrote articles about it) on one more than one occasion due to an outage, one was nearly 5 minutes long, the other only 20 seconds, both were terrible.

I learned that with crowdstrike. It completely changed my understanding of what's important for C-Suite and C-Suite wannabes that want to be in middle management

I tend to sell to a wide variety of customers. They tend not to give a crap if a cloud provider is down, its still our problem to make it right.

any company offering services with SLA that does not have this as a caveat is just crazy to me. "we guarantee our services will be up and running as long as the 3rd party services we run on top of are running."
