Wow. The apparent level of conceit with which you ended your message is astounding. Do you think they intend to break production? You don’t mind? There are real people behind this who are hard at work delivering us a great product, we should cut them some slack.

I apologize if you meant it differently but it came off a little off-putting.

Intentions are meaningless. If you're providing a service, (especially charging money for said service), you can't break it because "you're hard at work".

>you can't break it because "you're hard at work"

Apparently you can...because it is broken.

A few days of degraded service is frustrating, but their up-time has bought them a lot of credit in my book - especially considering what they do.

This is the real world. No service is magically infallible.

Are you a robot? Have some humanity...

GitHub is not a human being, it's a company.

A lot of people have patience on day one, but this is the third or so day now this has happened. It’s understandable there are ruffled feathers.
