Completely AI written unfortunately

"The crash is the short story; the slowness is the one worth writing down."

The horror.

I'd rather read a "badly written" and to the point story, than a clone of the last 20 postmortem-ish/incredible discovery stories I've seen this week.

It sounds like there could be something extremely interesting in this article, but the writing style is really off-putting.

> "on staging first and then on production at 23:40"

Why does the reader need to know the exact minute-to-minute timeline?

That's how postmortems have been written for ages.

It'd be great if it were written as a postmortem, but seems like that's almost the only moment where a concrete hour is mentioned. Except for the screenshot footnote.

I tried to read this article but something about the writing style made me go cross eyed. That being said, it sounded like something I had heard before and lo and behold...

I'm not sure the real intention of this blogpost, but my takeaway is "someone who has no idea what is going on finds a problem <LLM OF CHOICE> left for them, like a little code land mine".
