Funny enough, I received a marketing email from GitHub during the outage with the following subject: "What if every pull request you started actually shipped"

Huh, they usually do? I'm not a full-time developer though so I'm surely biased towards doing the obvious quick fixes or already-discussed things, but discussing how to solve a problem before throwing something at the wall seems like the normal thing to do for me

Or is their point about abandoned projects where the dev never clicks release after merging, or even never merges?

The joke was that we have open pull requests that we cannot merge because of this downtime.

The point is you can't ship shit during an outage.

		Yeah I saw the humor of that :) Just curious about the thing they're trying to even sell, it doesn't sound like something they can offer even if they had a good SLA
