AWS averages about one major outage per year[0].

Google's own status page[1] list near 100 incidents in the past 365 days, only one of which ended on HN frontpage.

Both of these AWS outages made it to the HN frontpage (and neither are listed in that AWS timeline):

Good correction: the outages do happen at a fixed rate. Regarding GCP, I only see a couple events that have lasted more than 8 hours, not sure how many of those affect more than one subsystem.
