Booze Knocks Out Some of Your Favorite Sites

Although you might’ve already read about it on Valleywag, yesterday’s consecutive outages did not, in fact, cause some of your favorite blog, review, and sex ad sites (e.g., LiveJournal, Vox, Craigslist, Yelp) to collapse temporarily. Over at datacenter 365 Main, it seems that maybe someone or some (clearly as of today, former) employee "'came in shitfaced drunk, got angry, went berserk, and fucked up a lot of stuff. There's an outage on 40 or so racks at minimum.'"

Chortle.

Although this sucks for 365 Main (especially with an angry nerd mob at its door to compound its problem yesterday) and, sure, this is a dream many of us have fantasized about when it comes to stressful workplaces, it came at a particularly bad time. After the power went up, to no avail many of us tried to go to the sites that relive work boredom. Here's to hoping that today is a better day.
