If I Go Down I'm Taking You With Me

Ah, the perfect digital murder-suicide! Your service crashes, but instead of letting the world know about your incompetence, you take down the monitoring service too. It's like unplugging the smoke detector during a house fire because the beeping is annoying. That Cloudflare logo just makes it *chef's kiss* - because nothing says "high availability" like being the single point of failure for half the internet. When your status page is hosted on the same infrastructure that's currently burning to the ground, you've achieved peak DevOps enlightenment.

Dont Build On Google Products Guys

Ah, the classic "payment failed, delete everything" approach. Google Cloud apparently runs on the same code that powers my ex's memory after an argument. The best part? They didn't just nuke $80B worth of data once - they went after the backups too. Like a digital toddler throwing a tantrum: "You didn't pay? I'll delete this... AND THIS... AND THIS TOO!" This is why multi-cloud isn't paranoia, it's survival. And why the most important line in your codebase isn't the clever algorithm - it's the exception handler that doesn't rage-quit when payments hiccup.
