AVHerald is always the best source. The only problem is they publish the complete accident reports months or years later when they're actually ready. And by then the "engagement" crowd has stopped caring.
They can't log in to update the status page about facebook login because they use facebook login for auth on the status page!
Joking aside, I wouldn't be surprised if this was the case, because during their last major outage (something related to DNS iirc) they were having issues pushing fixes because they couldn't login because their DNS was down.
EDIT: seems like the status page was recently updated.
I have been using Addic7ed [0] in cases where I need subtitles. Any new shows/series get their subtitles uploaded extremely fast, and as I understand translations also happen there (when already not available from a streaming service).
On the other hand I was using VLSub, a VLC addon, which downloads subtitles automagically. But now I see it used opensubtitles :(
[0] The story is set in the future, after the 'Gene Wars' have turned the Earth into a blighted wasteland. The inhabitants of Earth live a tribal-like existence and offer tributes to the Sky Lords. The Sky Lords live in giant airships and are the rulers of the people below.
Issue is solved. The context for anyone interested from one of Scaleway Engineers [1]:
> To give some context, there are a lot of possible path between Cloudflare and Scaleway : France IX in Paris, NL IX in Paris and in Amsterdam, AMS IX in Amsterdam, and the transit in both region (Cogent, Lumen, Arelion). Cloudflare is announcing some prefixes only on some of these links.
> We were trying to find the root cause since Monday morning, but as we did not have any errors visible on our side, it was pretty hard to identify the faulty path.
Another fun fact from Scaleway CTO is that Cloudflare started answering ... just ~30 minutes ago. [2]
Hopefully not because of this submission, some more updates started flowing on the Scaleway side [1], but nothing solving the issue.
The are some workarounds (from Marco@ [2])
> moving workload out of scaleway to other datacenters and keeping all cloudflare CDN and features working perfectly (seems to be affecting exclusively scaleway/online.net)
> disabling all cloudflare features (DNS only) (some people can’t do it as cloudflare could be integral part of webapps flow and servings)
But applying those can't be done in all cases (i.e. disables Cloudflare WAF, CDN, etc.).
Based on discussions with friends who have been medalists from International Olympiads more than once, there is no need of any real linguistic knowledge.
General knowledge of language groups may be helpful, but often the problems were for some language used from <1k people. And usully you wouldn't have heard them at all, or would not have additional information where it is spoken.
