Facebook was down, because their config-correction-feature corrupted the configs. But the WTF is that the clients with invalidated config cache caused increasingly more traffic, even when the original problem had been fixed.
I recall a lesson from past year titled "Feedback loops in TCP-based networks"... How are we ever going to build skynet if so many fail at solving 30 year old problems?

That's what happens when you don't check your config values
I would've rebooted the whole system after the first 30 mins of downtime
When in doubt reboot
Luckily skynet will fail because of a buffer/stack overflow or floating point calculations errors.
Division by zero will happen when they have exterminated all humans
Or a timestamp oveflow (that will take a lot of years with a 1024 bits processor)

Skynet thinks The Matrix is a reality show.

But what if failing to solve the 30-year-old problems is what causes Skynet to be built in the first place?
