IT'S HAPPENING
GITHUB, THE FIRST ENTERPRISE CLOUD SOLUTION TO REACH ZERO NINES RELIABILITY

Cloudflare has been pretty bad too lately. Its like the big companies are not even trying anymore. And if a real war broke out…their facilities are all centralized and VERY easy to target. Keeps me up at night sometimes since a vast majority of services at work are all on central servers.
In theory the internet self corrects. But in practice, if AWS/Cloudflare/MS/etc…goes down, a LOT of other services you dont even know about are effected. Last AWS issue took down Azure as well as people were scrambling to get servers back up and running (among other things).
it’s because all these major service providers are desperately attempting to inject AI into their operations without a goal in mind. they’re literally just throwing money at the wall and wishing something will stick.
at my current employer they are mandating AI be used by every department. didn’t say how or what the goal was, just “use it or get fired”. last year it became a KPI.
so far this year, we’re $13m behind projected goals. labor is down 15% because we stopped hiring people. productivity is down 30% because the ones that remain are getting burnt out by the increased workload.
I have hourly techs tell me they are being encouraged to work off the clock.
2026 is going to be worse than 2025, even if the bubble pops.
I highly doubt it’s just that, I wouldn’t be surprised if most of the devs who actually put in all the work upfront have left or been removed. See the same shit at Google, remember when it was actually a good search engine? Priorities shifted to making money above all else instead of making good products.

Who needs external malicious actors when you jam AI into your workflow?
with friends like ai, who needs enemies?
