Youtube-dl is also not working surprisingly. It's crazy how I still assumed it was my network and not youtube. Speaks to how much I depend and rely on youtube being available as a staple in my life. For me the error just says webpage is unavailable. I am in NJ so east coast has a large outage probably.

For me it’s the only acceptable content.
Also, i reloaded and it didn't work?
Yep, that's what I'm seeing. I also came directly to HN to see if others were, and this is the top thread. Well done HN!
How long will Youtube be down.....
My subscriptions box has come back up now, it should be resolving itself!
That's incredibly difficult for large brands to do.

If Target's sales are up this holiday, was it the TV ads, the print ads, or the online ads? Or maybe it wasn't any of them and the economy is just up.
Down in Australia too with the "?pbjreload=10" appended to the end of the youtube link.
app is broken too
Maybe related to the #libssl CVE ?
Wouldn't DDoS be incredibly hard to pull off given YouTubes vast resources? I mean they generate so much traffic all the time and serve so many requests a second I don't know if botnets of that size exist. Anyone here more knowledgeable?
will it forget all youre subs and videos u watched
the app is broken too
What is happening to youtube
Both m.youtube.com & the mobile app are down.

Any idea how much money they are going to lose?
I get a 503 network error on the mobile app from western canada right now. NewPipe will complete searches but gives a content not found error on trying to load a video.
I think the film industry mentioned in article might be kollywood instead of tollywood. Kollywood industry is based out of Chennai.
what is going on with youtube guys is this a world wide problem
what if they lose data ?
I'm imagining millions of kids in restaurants crying out because their "iPads aren't working"

People are needlessly at risk if they’re still using a vulnerable service they could have been told not to use while you wait for the vendor.

Excerpt from the end of the article:

> For his part, Gilmore said he “would have preferred that this stay off the radar.” But he decided to speak to BuzzFeed News because “once this comes out there’s no way that I’m going to stay out of it, so I’d prefer to own it. And I’m not going to try to hide from what I did.”

> “It’s still,” he said, “some variety of the future of warfare.”

> Gilmore is out of the mercenary business. He has since found himself in another gray-zone line of work, albeit one that’s far less dangerous. He said he’s with a California company that plans to make cannabis oil for vaporizers.
99 percent of my battery life is used on you tube. Now it will be 2 percent safari. Nooooooooooooo

I think this might be right, but this could be because it was an thus an awful interface for anyone who wasn't somewhat along the HN-user spectrum of technical nous.
YouTube not working for me
Is it happening everywhere
I'd argue that python needs an async django, which will hopefully be django in a few releases.
Experimental Roomba built up a static charge and fried something important.
Sadly, I think this almost always should be the case. That is, unless the employer actually is benevolent and puts effort into nurturing the futures of its employees. But how often do we see that?

People should basically work no more than 4 hours a day, and the remaining 4 hours should either be spent developing skills or running a side-hustle on a personal laptop. Better that than bullshitting, which is what the vast majority of people do after they're burned out working 3 hours.

My kid doesn't and will never have iPads until he is able to buy it for himself. Kids adjust and find ways to entertain themselves. It's an important skill they should be developing. You'd be doing them a service to just give them some inanimate toys to play with and leaving them to self-explore.

Doesn't really show much of a change right now, nor does the aggregate chart for the SIX in Seattle.

The largest downstream/eyeball networks that take Youtube traffic do it via PNIs with them so you won't see that in an IX fabric traffic chart. For example the Google/Youtube AS exchanges traffic with Comcast directly by their own dedicated ports, no IX involved.
Where were you when YouTube died?

On HN, of course.

The static contents are still available so it must be problem in their application. Strange that is down world wide, not a region. But, then Google likes to make things as a whole, ie. Spanner database.
And I knew if I had my pick, that I could make those people click, and maybe they'd be happy for a while
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elsagate has an explanation
YouTube + kids. Not YouTube in general ;)
everything is down in every city ;-; its on twitter.
It actually makes me appreciate how reliable youtube has always been. I never even consider a youtube link might not work perfectly when I click one.
Thank god I've been raging the past 5 mins
Tell them YouTube is sleeping. My toddler explains every sort of absence as whatever it is (inanimate or otherwise) sleeping.

I have tested the status of youtube to confirm if it is still down and it is T.T

Well I was trying to load a video on YouTube a second ago and searched worked but the video said "error tap to retry". I opened HN to verify my internet and saw this. So it's broken for some of us ;)
isn't it also strange that the shadow of their ui components are still loading?

idk whether to be afraid or not
I bet it’s a core network issue since it went down globally at the same time.. they deploy new binaries slowly so that shouldn’t cause it. Maybe some config was changed without testing?
Down in New Zealand also
damn I have the same problem right now

I think it is just NA, SA, and Australia.

I can't stand nextdoor. Bunch of idiots scared of their own shadow sharing photos and videos of "suspicious" people and dumbasses asking about "gunshots" any time a car backfires or a firecracker is set off.

Ridiculous.
And they've been correct for decades. Numerous studies have shown cognitive decline associated with television viewing, delays in language acquisition, deficits in attention and executive functioning.

Indeed it's not showing the Youtube issue for the reason you mentioned. Still relevant to the question above :)
I had a couple youtube tabs open from this morning, the videos still play and it's not cached, the videos are hours long. But any new videos aren't working.
Ah, Colombia. I was there about 20 years ago and it's still my favourite country by far. <3
Let's speculate, how much money would you guys guess is being lost every minute of downtime?
I'm still reading the paper now, but I had the impression that part of its pipeline involves disassembling binary artifacts back into IR that resembles what the compiler used to produce the binary in the first place, which could suggest that that step could benefit from tighter integration with LLVM.

I didn't say anything about mime type. I said disposition (which is what you would use to force a file to download, instead of display in browser, using the http protocol), and filename. If you set mimetype to octet, mobile safari, since it does not support the download attribute, cannot name it anything sensible or choose an appropriate file extension.

I always felt like data: urls could obtain a lot more utility if disposition and filename attributes were added to it, but... uhm, browser makers don't seem to agree, and the syntax would make it difficult to add features like that whilst staying backwards compatible.
i hope they fix it

I'd take you on that, except I have no anonymized payment account. Otherwise, I'd bet $100 that it's not.

I'm not shaming him/her. They complained about something that is the easiest thing to fix. Take the damn iPad away. It's like complaining you're thirsty when you have a bottle of spring water in your hand. Not even Steve Jobs let his kid have an iPad.
I've been a major Insta user since the beginning, with a few different accounts (I do photography on a few different topics, so I keep them separate to appeal to each niche). I would be on for a few hours a day, every day, chatting to people, sharing photos, etc.

I recently deleted all my accounts completely, because it just became so horrible to use. Timeline all over the place, overwhelming number of ads, impossible to use search anymore, Explore that just ignores what you like and shows you stuff they want you to see, etc etc.
The Story of Money
iiiiiiit's all over, but the cryyyyyyying.
Here in Uruguay if you wish to call yourself an "engineer" you need to have an accredited engineering degree.

There is a career called C.S. Engineer and it has an huge amount of math and physics (equivalent to an undergrad + master's in the U.S.). Most of us take the career that's equivalent to an undergraduate degree though, the extra math (and grueling attrition) is mostly useless.

But graduates are very sought after because they've proven themselves able to go through a tough grind (even though they don't have a shred of practical experience after graduating)
It's down here in Canada it's down everywhere
I still remember when kenneth closed every single open ticket on his envoy project without any fixes. Problems? What problems? Serves me right for taking the time to write a detailed bug report. I won't make that mistake again.
down in Ireland too
Internet sites go down all the time, though usually not for long or en masse.
for one second i was thinking that someone hack my computer, but at least i see that all people has the same problem lol
strangely I can watch youtube on my iphone
I think an accurate description would be classical (meaning not quantum mechanical) model of light (which covers both geometrical optics and wave optics) and phenomenological model (in physicist's sense: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenomenological_model) of matter and light-matter interaction. It is a phenomenological model, because it's either derived from a cartoon description of matter at microscopic scale and how light bounces off it, or fitted to some experimental data, and is without an underlying actual first-principles physical theory either way.

BTW, I hope you don't think this is just me being picky about words; if you talk to any physicists in condensed matter matter physics and say the magic words "first principles", they'd immediately start thinking that you did ab initio calculations. First-principles calculations and DFT is a sub-field, and entire careers and communities are built on it!
not exactly subscriptions, at least mine only has the youtube terms and conditions segment that should be at the end but now it's at the subscriptions side

Same here in Melbourne. Went down about 15 minutes ago. But the service seems to work fine on Smart TV's. No issues there.
I'm in England and it's not working for me
plz fix it
YoutubeTV down too. Big footprint outage.
wont even show any thumbnails, just grey boxes
This shit is weird, u can take my playstation u can even take my netflix but when u take youtube thats when things get serious, I just want my game grumps back
I don't remember the existence of better offerings early in the Maps lifecycle that Google search prioritized Maps results over. Maybe I'm too young?

There was Mapquest, and to my memory, Google came out of the starting gate with something close to feature parity with them.

A. You're not being fun.

2. Good point.

III. One thing I did notice. I had some other videos in other tabs. They still loaded through. I could skip around and it streamed in video like nothing was wrong. When I refresh, bust.

Now we all get track how our user traffic increases when YouTube is down...
Fair, I overlooked that.

But given the unique situation of Detroit, and the fact that US cities are generally organized in quite a different fashion to Chinese cities there's really no good use in comparing the two IMO.

One issue is that an iPad is basically non-buildable or modd-able so you can't build your own PC to play a game... which one could argue is a more recent equivalent of buy a junky car and fix it up. Now maybe have the kid build a set top PC or something.. or a tivo.. That being said, video gamer kids tend to have super dexterity and they are better at taking in a lot of digital information quickly. So there is that.
Youtube is love...Youtube is life(or so we thought). R.I.P 2005 - 2018.

DNS is resolving because people can get to the site. Because of the distributed nature of YouTube's resources (at DNS as well as other layers), it's very unlikely to be DDoS related. Static content loads, but video content doesn't. Seems like an application error, or a problem with media streaming infrastructure.
Down and out in London.
Google search very slow / down for me. Anyone seeing the same?
This isn't just affecting my Youtube,im getting errors all around my browser. Anyone else?
"These are the most common IP addresses for YouTube: 208.65.153.238. 208.65.153.251. 208.65.153.253.

These IP addresses do not respond.
Google sites are probably the most reliable, I don't think I've ever seen google / gmail / yt going down.
This was a project that I built to explore if we could build a cheaper elastic search alternative using a FaaS service model. I didn't use a DB. Just S3, Lambda and API Gateway. I even did a performance analysis for latency times. It was a fun experiment, just deploy from the Serverless Repo and everything will work out of the box.
Wow, that's an impressive result. I wouldn't have guessed that L1-icache-misses were that significant of a time sink such that reducing them by 1/3 would be enough to knock 15% off the total runtime.

Most of the time when I read about something that provides this much improvement on a major application, it turns out that the comparison isn't quite what it seems (as in, they are using -O0 as a baseline or some such). But from what I can tell, this is a genuine improvement over the best alternative.

Congratulations to the authors on a great job!
I said that after they got all dismissive in a follow up comment and doubled down with saying there was no smoking gun. This reads to me like someone asserting their right to post random facts and getting pissed and dismissive when someone else does the same.

Before that it was one person listing a general fact followed by another person listing other general facts and somehow that turned into me being told to "lay off".

I don't see where it's reasonable to make me out to be the bad guy here.
American Express is also down!

Hey! Conspiracy time!

Maybe it's an inner splinter rogue group within Google that's been secretly hating on a Youtube team and decided to get the ultimate payback for like... not inviting them to a lan party...or something...aliens ate all the cheesey poofs.
when is it going to be back up?
Agreed. I'd suspect it'll be something similar to Google's 2016 GCP outage:

https://status.cloud.google.com/incident/compute/16007

(I'm thinking something like router firmware or BGP).
But October made me quiver, with every UDP packet I'd deliver- bad JS on the door-step, the DOM couldn't take one more step
Fat fingered a script would be my guess. Not the first time that caused a 'big4' site to go down.

The explanation is solid, but that doesn't excuse Twitter. If you charge for clicks you should do your best to make sure that the clicks are genuine, not design a user interface where 95% of clicks are caused by bad interface design.
