Whatever is going on to cause a ground stop is bad but not uniformly catastrophic. Notably, aircraft are talking to company via ACARS and at least one large aircraft has confirmed that they have all the normal communications plus the standard fallbacks available.
Air to Ground Message:

WE ARE STILL TALKING TO CENTER. WE HAVE HF AS WELL AS SATCOM TO FALL BACK ON IF NECESSARY.

Not, of course, a Cocteau Twins album as such -- and yet also it is, since it's all three of them and Mr. Budd there. An inspired combination then and now, it's long been one of my Cocteaus fallbacks, hearing Budd's piano bubble up through the textures. @brucelevenstein.bsky.social can concur.

so like ok let's say the new AI toy does turn out to have gone weird on them; doesn't it have fallbacks that have fallbacks? otoh Fuck yeah, it's nice to see someone still cares more about human lives than profit. Someone said "not good enough, no one dies on my watch bc you thought it'd work out"

Controllers will allow planes to land using alternative navigation as required/available.

GPS/ILS/Vectors/radio beacons/visual fixes are standard fallbacks and if its a bad enough equipment outage we even have light signals

But if it was that bad we'd know it by now

Inkling 2 Small is now available through Vercel AI Gateway with one API key, automatic fallbacks, spend tracking, and request traces. I think the practical win is putting failure handling, cost visibility, and debugging around model access in one place.

Table layout and raw HTML blocks cause most of the pain. TextKit 2 handles attributed strings and basic typography cleanly, but multi-column tables and code fences often need custom NSTextAttachment view providers or WebKit fallbacks to avoid horizontal clipping.

What happened to the concepts of "Redundant Systems", "Fallbacks", and similar "defence in depth"?

ObSheesh: Furrfu!

...and your backout plan is...?

Switching platforms taught me that my automation scripts need redundant fallbacks—one QR scan never survives contact with reality.

I went from there to a bank, another industry that relies on WE MUST NEVER CHANGE ANYTHING, everything requiring government approval, and the difference was night and day: we had vintage systems but they had rigid documentation requirements and fallbacks and things. Shit was old but you knew how

This is the thing that gets me. Like, sure you're using the AI to write code. Fine, it's fast and easy. But you know it's not good. And you can easily compensate for that by having safety valves and fallbacks. Where are the extra checks and back-up plans?

Automation Fail-Safes: Plan for the Outage

Cloud routines stop when the internet does. Here's how to design local fallbacks, manual overrides, and power backup so the house still works.

Oh look, another cloud services outage... tell me CIOs... still think leveraging your entire enterprise on PaaS and SaaS in environments where you have absolutely no control whatsoever??

If you're not at least a little concerned and not thinking of having on-prem fallbacks... go be a fry cook.

Cloud redundancy fails when unexpected server drops overwhelm remaining nodes. How do you design your AI agent fallbacks when core APIs go dark?
November 12, 2026 at 10:51 PM
I wouldn't be surprised if either each ARTCC it was deployed to runs an independent instance of the AI model, and they are supposed to try to cache data for each other but ended up in a huge feedback loop of cache misses and direct data queries as fallbacks, DoSing every defined data source, or
