I don't think that Nick Martini guy is a GitHub employee.

I believe he's speaking about the curator of HackerNewsTips, who from the last few tweets, sounds like he might be the GitHub employee who had to deal with the wrath of Zed.

I think that's Zed's assumption, but it also seems to be completely unwarranted. The HackerNewsTips guy was making (funny, accurate) jokes that are in keeping with the tone of the rest of the feed.

I never said Nick Martini is a github employee, I know who he is and he's definitely not there. I said:

1. I suspect HackerNewsTips is a github employee. I'd also suspect a fellow former PowerSet employee. 2. They are not only in on the joke (from their Ruby connections), but like the joke, and that's why they don't really fix the problem.

We'll see what's true.
