What Are You Doing Right Now
-
I was scheduled to be off 20 minutes ago... but it seems like a lot of people in my organization are affected by the Exchange Online issues happening right now, so I'm going to stick around and see if it gets resolved soon. Mostly I'm just here to catch people reporting the email outage and say "I know but thanks" as I don't really have much I can do to fix it on my end. #JustCloudServiceThings
I'm mostly spending my time wondering when the last time Gmail for Work went down...
-
Been manually sorting DDoS logs.

What Exchange Online issues are going on? I have not seen any yet.
-
My personal office365 Exchange is down (not my work email).

Current Status: The investigation determined that a portion of infrastructure which facilitates authentication to the service is experiencing higher-than-normal resource usage. Engineers are analyzing service telemetry to determine what is causing the high resource usage.

Mine appears to be working, if that is of any consolation.

Neither my OWA or Outlook Will work.

So far none of my test emails between Outlook, OWA and my Gmail account have reached each other. I got OWA to open my inbox, but both it and Outlook have failed to actually send any of my test emails.
The weirdest part is that the emails sent to my own Exchange mailbox show up in the Sent Items section but never arrived in my inbox. So people might think they're sending out emails but no one is receiving them? There's also no mailer daemon response on my gmail account to inform me that my message failed to reach its destination. So even though it keeps cycling between "trying to connect", "disconnected" and "Connected" on my Outlook, it's really disconnected the entire time and can't update its inbox, send mail, or anything really.

Welcome to email. This is how email has been since inception many decades ago. It is an async protocol where the sending happens separately from the receiving. Under no conditions does a successful send imply a successful receipt. Email just doesn't work that way.

Fair enough, I just thought it was strange that the emails I sent to my own email address from the Outlook client showed up in my OWA sent box, implying they had been received by the Exchange Online server somehow, but didn't show up in my OWA or Outlook inbox.
Either way, looks like everything's back in business so hooray for that!

Mine's still not up.

Score. That doesn't come along too often!

I bet that was fun! I usually pay all my bills right at the first of the month... That way I know how hard to cry for the following three weeks.

Finally setting up Gravatar.. Or - at least trying to.

We just rolled up to 1.3 million views. It's a long, hard road getting noticeable views racking up on our biggest thread but it is happening, slowly but surely. The top NodeBB thread anywhere is up to 1.9m views but has no one actively talking on it and does it by having very explicit content making it very big on a Google SEO hit. But they were at almost 1.4m when this thread started. So it appears that we are racking up views at roughly 150% to 200% of their speed and we are actively posting. There is a very real possibility that this is the single longest thread in any NodeBB system anywhere. I've seen nothing that comes close.
