A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

This is second-hand, so take it with a grain of salt, but I've seen mention of a bug that sometimes causes the same graphql query to be executed in an infinite loop (presumably they're async requests, so the browser wouldn't lock and the user wouldn't even notice).
So they may essentially be getting DDOS'd by their own users due to a bug on their end.

Ha, that's hilarious. Absolutely not a surprise, though
