🔥 X (formerly Twitter) is recovering after a global outage this morning — following a data center fire in Oregon earlier this week.

⚙️ NetBlocks confirmed the disruption wasn’t due to country-level filtering, and Downdetector showed tens of thousands of reports dropping back down by midday.

👨‍💻 While most users are back online, degraded performance remains, especially for login systems like OAuth. This highlights how vulnerable SaaS platforms and social networks are when physical infrastructure — like batteries in data centers — is disrupted.

⚡ As organizations increasingly rely on cloud and SaaS, how prepared are they for sudden physical failures? Should we rethink redundancy and crisis response?

Cloud APIs should be predictable and transparent—not black boxes with hidden side effects.

We asked AWS to resize a volume.
Status: "SUCCESS"
Result: Nothing changed.

No error. No warning. Just a hidden constraint in the config.

We dug into the problem and shared the fix so you don’t lose hours on it too.
