    “As we roll out more Generative AI and agents, it should change the way our work is done,” Jassy said in a note to employees in June, per Reuters. “We will need fewer people doing some of the jobs that are being done today, and more people doing other types of jobs.”

    Haa ha

      “Guys look out, this might lead to job loss.”

      “JOB LOSS? UHHHH…” Fires a bunch of people, for some reason

      It’s got the same energy as being warned that your house could burn down if you let your kid play with matches so you pour some gasoline on your kitchen floor and make a bonfire.

      Also I love how these people will do this shit without even checking if it would actually work but a 4-day work week, which we know will benefit everyone through many case studies, is apparently too much of a risk. Executives really are the dumbest, cruelest people humanity has to offer.

    Probably undoing whatever it was they did on Monday (and badly patched in the meantime)

      Regardless of the cause, this is not gonna help their reputation. Most people will see this as a 2nd outage soon after the 1st.

    The issue appears to be DNS related so that takes time to propagate

      DNS again?

        A haiku:

        It’s not DNS. It couldn’t be DNS. It was DNS.

      It does, and looking like their internal DynamoDB api’s are the main symptom of it/

    Do we know why yet? can I get odds on AI generated code being pushed without review?

      It literally happened right after they fired a bunch of humans to lean more on AI…

    Nice misinformation.

    AWS reports no issues: health.aws.amazon.com/health/status

    Also downdetector just spans 24h<br> The outage was 4 days ago on Monday.

      It reportedly took the AWS status page 7 hours to figure out their services were down during the 1st outage, so I wouldn’t put too much stock in that

        In case folks aren’t aware, AWS status page is not live. It is a human-driven page that is updated manually.

        The fortune 100 company I used to work for would be notified prior to the status page being updated for an issue before the status page is updated.

        Do not rely on their status page to tell you there is a problem.

        No it didn’t. It was less than 15 minutes. Image
