Even if it took only 30 seconds to find the error and the entire site was unplugged from the web so you could fix the bug, the damage is done, it's permanent and it's devastating. Facebook is crossing the line from failures being trivial to failures being potentially catastrophic. Sad, perhaps, by the standards around here, but some people conduct their lives on Facebook -- encouraged by Facebook to do so, mind you -- and you guys are treating it a little more seriously than a hackathon, from the sounds of it.
