10min troubleshoot time * 10K devs troubleshooting GitHub Actions right now... there goes one year for comunal dev productivity.

Balance that against the time saved by having GH actions instead of managing your own Jenkins server or something and it’s pretty fair

And yet, I doubt those 10K devs could collectively produces something in that 10 mins that would come even close to me and a random other person putting in 6 months.

This probably holds if the random person is actively working against whatever the collective goal is.

I spent a good 20 minutes trying to figure out why actions weren’t running for my PR. Almost lost my marbles until I saw another PR in a different repo also not running actions and I decided to check the GitHub status page. It feels like there should be some sorta warning or alert on GitHub.com when there’s an outage of a component of the site.
