GITHUB KEEPS GOING DOWN. ALL THANKS TO VIBE CODING



GitHub went down again.

The reason? AI-assisted coding is flooding the platform with so much traffic that the infrastructure can't keep up.

Let that sink in for a moment.

Microsoft owns GitHub.
Microsoft makes Copilot, the AI generating all this traffic.
Microsoft runs Azure, the cloud that's supposed to handle it.

One company. Three products. A perfectly self-inflicted outage.

They spent $7.5 billion to "empower every developer on the planet," then built the AI tool that's taking down the platform those developers depend on.

The world's most important open source infrastructure is now fragile because Microsoft is selling AI coding subions faster than it can scale the servers to run them.

At some point, decentralizing away from GitHub stops being a fringe idea 😂
