>Right now someone who works for Facebook is getting tens of thousands of error messages and frantically trying to find the problem before the whole charade collapses. There’s a team at a Google office that hasn’t slept in three days.

Still true right now this very moment I'm sure. Let's light a candle to all the sleepless sysadmins helping keep up this rickety thing built on top of hodgepodge code we call the internet.

I see this as an opportunity and as a challenge. The one able to detect and sane the system should be heavily paid. Is an opportunity for the team to design better software. An opportunity to grow. The only and big problem I see is how to measure the team performance to avoid giving the credit to the one that don't deserve it.
