Best Tweets of Tonight's Hacker News <s>Outage</s> Apocalypse

Apparently people couldn't figure out how to wake up, drink coffee, eat, go to sleep, start work, not work, read or much of anything else because of the outage. On the brighter side, everyone seems to think developer productivity has increased. Here are some of the most interesting/amusing/sad tweets so far:

Kind of Like Groundhog Day...

I keep opening Hacker News, finding it down, then saying "Aww.. HN it down.. What now?" Then opening a new tab, and trying to go to HN.

Startup productivity must be through the roof right meow. Hacker News is down. So much code is being written. The githubs aren’t ready.

Not Sure This is How a Paradox Works, But Okay...

The Hacker News Paradox. The top page would be stories about HN being down, only nobody can submit them.
