This week alone, I've seen multiple servers fail due to hardware issues: multiple bad fans, a failed hard drive, bad network optics. Another server got bumped while an adjacent server was being worked on and lost time sync, leading to software instability/crashes. We don't have a large fleet, but we do have more servers than employees, and issues add up. We don't need any help with instability, entropy has us covered, thank you very much.
