Why is Stack Overflow not working? All I get is this .NET error:

Server Error in '/' Application.
Runtime Error

    I've not been able to answer a question for FORTY MINUTES. This is critical! Just send over database details and I'll SQL insert my answers. I have so much work to avoid and no reason to avoid it!!

    I observe that the stackstatus.net site is stuck in a time warp. The second entry says "stackexchange.com outage - 2010-10-10 We are continuing to investigate an issue with stackexchange.com site degradation. At the moment, we are not displaying favicons for the sites while we diagnose the issue further." but is marked as being posted '2 weeks ago'. I believe the 2010 should be 2013. And, FWIW, the favicons are still not being displayed, if I'm to believe what I see with Chrome (30.0.1599.101 on Mac OS X 10.9). Commented Oct 31, 2013 at 3:03
