Well, luckily I have a full clone of my entire repository's history, just sitting here on my hard drive. Good thing it wasn't Beanstalk that went down.

Yep! We also keep an offsite disaster guide, just in case - http://ozmm.org/posts/when_github_goes_down.html

We apologize for the outage, there was a dual-disk failure on the SAN, but no data was lost. We're going to be working with Engine Yard to make sure this doesn't happen again.

Irritating pattern: 1. A free(mium) hosted service becomes popular 2. It inevitably goes down one day 3. I hear about it from every blog, tweet, and news site.

I have always hosted my own email and webserver so when it goes down, instead of blogging about it and complaining, I just fix it.

I run my own power station if it ever goes down, instead of complaining I just replace the spent fuel rods.

Wow, thats pretty lame, I use biofuel for everything, I stick plants in one side and my computer comes on. I have to find new suns periodically...

i may do a little hacking on thanksgiving but I can't imagine most programmers working today; it's a decent day to be down (unless you have a shopping or leisure web app)

edit: o yeah I forgot that some users may be international...
