My mind went completely diff direction after reading "Incident AT".


Mine as well. I understand that Slack is widely used and I appreciate seeing their post-mortems discussed on HN but I don't consider image uploads issues with no technical explanations news-worthy and valuable enough for HN.

Have you read the status entry? Among other things, calls is also affected.


been seeing 100% failures on webhook event subscriptions too. that's only reason I noticed right away.


Still not an "incident at Slack".


Disagree. Last outage was a slow degradation in usability. I appreciate when companies are transparent and upfront.


It seems you are of the minority... it's on the front page


A 404 link with a catchy title and "Show HN" raided from Twitter were also on the front page in recent hours.


Same, this read like workplace violence. "Outage At" would be more accurate.


Yeah really bad choice of word. “Availability” or “Degraded” is what they’re looking for.


I am equally puzzled by this. Whether it's a vanity stat to grab attention or whether there's some substance to then number given CloudFlare name (or some combination of both as I suspect).


I'm no virologist or scientist but I'm going to need a sample size greater than TWELVE PPL. ffs.

"The research considered blood plasma samples from 12 participants"


I don't see why it's AS big a scandal given what CEO stated and reading accounts from reputable news sources.

My quick take: France tells Switzerland who then compels PM to START tracking account holder(s) and prevented PM (by law from what I've read) from telling account holder. Per PM CEO this type of Swiss order could not be disputed with the way PM has disputed other claims.

To me, it's not logging of the IP; it's when did it start and from my reading they started after being compelled to do so over a period of time between compelled to and this coming to light.

To me, strong pushback (for those who feel passionate about it) should be directed to Switzerland for complying with France for what many think is not a high enough bar to compel all this tracking. Maybe they did scrutinize it and maybe they didn't.

Any meta-data saving isn't secure but sharing that after being compelled to track account holders isn't surprising.

There's a line in their agreement that says " If a request is made for encrypted message content that we do not possess the ability to decrypt, the fully encrypted message content may be turned over.".

Maybe I'm missing something in my logic.
