What is happening with Microsoft's website?

Anyone have any idea? Everything I try to look for seems to be gone. Even if you try to go through the menus on the main site, half the links either throw SQL errors or 404s.

What the hell are they doing?

Either a transient technical issue or the effect of all the massive layoffs coming up soon.

Microsoft Network person here.

You can sense which groups are worried, and which are not.

Infrastructure and Security is worked with minimal surplus labor.

Management, Software Devs and "Non IT", however...

You must be a youngster, this has happened so many times over the years, that I have come to expect it, it is a normal flow of things in the last 30 years.

I heard about that from a buddy of mine out there in WA who does something with the mobile platform, but I don't remember what, exactly. He's pretty sure it isn't going to affect people in Redmond, mostly just redundant departments.

Not sure I'm "young", I guess just never paid attention until yesterday. Still, what a PITA. Even just trying to get to the main certification page doesn't work.
