Ask HN: GCP Outage?
I’ve reached the error page of the image of the error page for the error page. We’re too deep.
Also: very sad, but it would be great if it was just imgur doing this; it's the whole internet.
Something went wrong is what they will tell you and expect an answer. Doesn’t matter how fancy and detailed the error, you will get back, “it’s broken fix it.”
“xxx doesn’t work. I just get an error”
They would never tell me what the error message actually was. And when I asked, the reply often was “I don’t remember. I’ve closed it now”.
It used to wind me up rotten. I can forget non-technical people not understanding the error message. But common sense should have kicked in that the error message is important to share with the person trying to fix said error.> If too many of these happen, someone will be paged. If you still see this after half an hour, send mail to xxxxxxxxxxx@google.com
(For curious folks working for Hooli, the magic number is 472481)

The fact that google's engineers cared about doing that it's pretty funny
