The Universal Scapegoat

aws-memes, oncall-memes, devops-memes, cloud-memes, blame-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

The universal scapegoat has arrived! Nothing says "not my problem" like blaming AWS for literally everything that breaks. On-call engineers have mastered the art of deflection with that smug "sorry, can't help" smile while your production site is burning to the ground. The best part? Nobody can prove them wrong because AWS status page will eventually show some obscure service in us-east-1 having "elevated error rates" approximately 6 hours after your CEO has already sent angry texts.

Do Not Unplug: The Internet's Fragile Architecture

The internet: a precarious tower of technology held together by duct tape, prayers, and that one guy who maintains a critical npm package from his basement. At the bottom, we've got ISP backbones with a "Do Not Unplug" sign that some intern is definitely eyeing right now. Above that, the Linux Foundation quietly supporting civilization while DNS pretends it's not having an existential crisis. Unpaid open-source developers are literally the load-bearing wall of this structure, while AWS and Cloudflare collect enterprise subscription fees for the privilege of not watching it all collapse. Meanwhile, V8 and WASM are somehow making "things happen in the web" while Microsoft flies around like an Angry Bird, contributing exactly what you'd expect: chaos. If you ever wondered why your app crashed, it's because someone bumped this technological Jenga tower.

Ain't No Sunshine When She's Down(time)

Long-distance relationships are tough, but long-distance AI relationships are brutal. Your virtual companion was happily running on AWS US East-1, until the inevitable happened - the region went down. Now you're staring at error messages instead of sweet nothings. The most reliable thing about cloud services is their unreliability. At least real girlfriends only ghost you intentionally.
