Sidney Harris' classic single panel comic on "artificial stupidity" comes to mind; I found it, but I think it's a licensed image so I'm not bringing it here.

Very intermittent the last few days. The 502 errors come up more quickly than they used to (there's no spinning while it waits for a connection), and they seem to sort themselves out in only a few seconds each time. Still very annoying, but it doesn't seem as bad as it was before the server update.

I've noticed that they seem to resolve themselves pretty much after a second or so.

Today is the worst I've seen it. The site is going down more often than...well, I won't go there.

Way, way more than 502 errors. Gotta be up in the high four figures by now, at a minimum.

I made a change, hopefully it has improved... let me know

although it may have gotten worse because we haven't fixed the root of the problem yet.

^ Been on the site for the last hour or so, and there haven't been any interruptions.

Alex, could you please perhaps explain in layman's terms what the 'root of the problem' is?

It's been "smooth sailing" today.
