Heroku Down Again

Wondering how low their June uptime is going to be. Glad not to have my applications running there, but feel sorry for those that do. It sounds like an awesome system, but with outages being so frequent, I really wouldn't be comfortable using their services.
It is especially frustrating because my site is running but I need to push a pretty critical update and the api is shut off.

Yes, Heroku is down. They have a status page that lets you know about that sort of thing. It seems like folks like to keep an eye on certain service status pages and post them here real quick for some easy karma or something. This is HN, not the Heroku/AWS/PaaS/SaaS service status page. Those pages are easy to find and now there's one less spot for a really interesting article on the front page.
While I to some extent agree with your point, it serves as a reminder to those who say Heroku/AWS/whatever is the one-stop solution to all your uptime, stability and scalability needs.
These things goes down as well, and when they do you are powerless to get your stuff back up if you rely on them to operate.

The error you get when you try to push to Heroku isn't one that suggest that Heroku is down. Took me a while to figure that Heroku is down (after many futile attempts I decided to try to create a new app instead but they this time said that the api wasn't available)
I'm pretty sure karma means nothing to many including myself. Good karma - so what?
Just trying to help those who are facing the same problem as me, hoping they'd read this and realise that the issue isn't with their app or development machine but with Heroku.
