Wonder if this is at all related to the GCP outage

there is also some kind of cloudflare outage: https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/


And as a general timeline (IF status times are accurate. I trust the AWS the most due to the down detector stuff, which means it really could be all at the same time anyway due to lag in self-reporting incidents)

~1:00 CT: AWS outage start, GCP outage start

~1:15 CT: NPM registry

~1:19 CT: Github & Cloudflar


registry.npmjs.org is cloudflare, so that's probably it

although I wonder why multiple independent platforms are affected all at once?


> registry.npmjs.org is cloudflare...

source? looked briefly for info on this but came up with nothing


whois the IP it resolves to

    whois $(dig registry.npmjs.org +short | head -n1)

Right on the day that I cancelled all meetings to have a productive coding day!
