I remember I was at an IBM sponsored hackathon around 2015 where it was a requirement to use Bluemix. Over the course of the weekend the service went down for hours 3 times.

Literally this morning I was wondering what ever happened to it, like did it die a quiet death? Oh it rebranded to IBM cloud in 2017. Now this news.

I think there's an eponymous law named for this sort of thing.

That's funny. I've had the exact same experience with Bluemix at a Hackathon in the past. It was down for almost the entire weekend, screwing all the teams that didn't pivot early enough.
