Failures in production remain expensive.

I wish they were. Displaying an error message to the user, asking to try again later, is way too cheap in my opinion.
Do they, though? AWS and CloudFlare recently had the worst outages in their history, and GitHub is flirting with zero nines of uptime these days. Doesn’t seem to have cost them any business.
