That makes a hat trick of failures today: first United then NYSE, and now the air conditioning on the Fitchburg express commuter rail.

I’m not saying outages are anything deliberate, but those “Emergency Stop” buttons on servers look an awful lot like Staples “Easy” buttons.

Re the @NYSE and @united outages today: this is what happens when people get a three day weekend and then have to go back to work again.

OK, this is a crazy day. First UA grounds its planes. Now the NYSE halts trading due to technical issues. marketwatch.com/story/nyse-hal…

Whoa: United Airlines grounded its entire fleet for 75 minutes this morning due to automation issues. 1.usa.gov/1dLTXK7

Stock market having another hissy fit today. Guys, get a grip; the world isn’t that much worse than yesterday.
