You can see the cascade effect on their status page graphs: https://status.github.com/

What is impressive is that with a website 2h down, they can still announce a 97% availability for the day even so the graph clearly shows the 2h of failures in the day... :-/

The 97% you see on the status page is for the past 24 hours. That doesn't include any of the outage being discussed here.

Unless I'm mistaken, 97% of (24 hours) = 23.28 hours.

[mirekrusin]

yes, it went down to 89% or something just after the problem.

Interesting that their exception logging didn't get turned back on until this morning, from the looks of things.

Well, if exception logger was going off nonstop due to the outage, yet not providing any new information, it would make sense if they disabled it until things had returned to normal.
