    Yep, we lost outlook functionality. I’m curious to see what the cause of this is… a nationwide outage affecting the entire world’s enterprise is no small hiccup.

      It’s going to turn out to be shitty AI code causing the crash. It’s all part of a slow rolling train crash, and this still is the beginning.

      Status: Investigating We’ve determined that the elevated load isn’t driven by an overall increase in traffic, but by a large number of servers being unexpectedly unavailable, which is shifting load onto the remaining infrastructure. We’re investigating what’s causing these servers to become unavailable while we work to safely return them to service.

      They followed this one up to say the automated health checks were causing the servers to go unavailable.
