LinkedIn Down (linkedin.com)

With respect, should HN really be about posting every time a site (as opposed to a major service provider) goes down? This isn't really useful information.

Reddit is showing its emergency maintenance page sporadically, I wonder if the root cause is the same.

So, LinkedIn down. Reddit currently down too. Also StumbleUpon, Yelp. Also down early today Heroku, Netflix, Instagram, Rapportive, Pinterest ...

Not a good day for the Internet.

Are these all EC2 issues ? Leap second issues ?

Let's not post when sites go down, even if it is a large site.

Leap second for sure
