Second time this week that same message.

Though it seems not to be on there now.

Thank God the people running this (gov.uk) are only running the Covid web site and not the country.

Um.....
The Excel integration process string is probably broken again probably.

You’re so fucking scared you’ve lost you’re humanity, it’s her mum , not the care homes & not the states , HERS ffs.
I am last person you should say that to , if people dont want my concern then that is up to them, the lady is legally tied to the care home, the daughter risked everybody on a mission she knew wouldnt work, iget why she tried but it was still not the right way to do it, now the lady is isolated in her room and probably really upset and confused as she has dementia
 
Gov UK says it may be 9 pm before they can access the data. Good job that data on a pandemic is not a matter of life and death.

Of course, I know a delay is not vital on here or even for a government web site. But you do worry given how often this happens and if it has any relevance to the number of problems they seem to have with track and trace and mislaid or wrongly directed test data that has led to some issues around the UK in recent weeks.

We ARE taking life and death decisions off the back of 5 day old data largely because of issues like this that mean it can take days to get the live information set and checked

In today's fast paced world amidst a health crisis that just looks a bit Adam Adamant.

Today's when we should get an idea of whether this week is going to get another step change in positives. Devolved nations were down 9% between them today though so that’s good news. I’m going to go for England under 21000....
 
The poor software guy who is attempting to fix it and download the data whilst it keeps breaking down has been bravely posting on Twitter progress reports amidst lots of them on there saying they are just making up the numbers.

He has been incredibly patient with some of the replies. Mostly joshing like we do in here but some directly accusing it of being a fix.

His latest response says to the Twitterati:


"I'm sorry. You're welcome to apply for one of our open positions & give it a go. We collect 400+ million records from 20+ sources, then process, QA & publish them everyday under unparalleled scrutiny. Things break. Services fail. We do our best, I'm sorry if it isn't enough.^



Do feel rather guilty for joking about it in here. Though it sure does fail a lot. But I guess it has a lot to handle day to day.

I only post a tiny fraction of this on here and it takes hours every day. And know nothing about computers except (sometimes) which keys to press. Handling all that data seven days a week must be stressful.
