Would you mind sharing your setup with me or pointing me to some resources on it? My friend's wife using the Dexcom G7 and I wanted to look at some alternative's with them. I think she uses the Omnipod for a pump

While highly unprofessional, the "Who's a good boy?!" status message makes me like them a tiny bit more

I just grabbed the tagline of the article. I hadn't gone searching for the card yet and found the hack to be the more interesting topic

I didn't say they fixed everything within those 14 updates. I'm pointing out it's disingenuous to say they didn't start working on the issue until start of business when there are 14 updates of what they have found and done during that time.

Sure, that timeline looks bad when you leave out the 14 updates between 12:11am PDT and 8:04am PDT.

The initial cause appears to be a a bad DNS entry that they rolled back at 2:22am PDT. They started seeing recovery with services but as reports of EC2 failures kept rolling in they found a network issue with a load balancer that was causing the issue at 8:43am.

George Vaccaro was a Verizon customer who, in early December 2006, had a customer service phone call where Verizon had a legendary "math fail" as it would have been dubbed at that time. This is a viral tale from the early/modern internet age of the oughts. In the calls, the Verizon employees repeatedly fail to acknowledge the distinction between 0.002 dollars and 0.002 cents because they think "0.002 cents" is $0.002; in other words they think $0.002 is 0.002 cents simply because the 002 comes after the decimal point.

Ironically this site falls into my company's content filtering and was automatically blocked
