The 'one' day that I wake up at 7AM to get some quality caffeinated work done, and I can't pull.

It's all good though, I still have loco host to keep me busy until their resolve the issue.

To me, that looks like an angry unicorn ... does that mean it's another DDoS? It would also be interesting to track loss of productivity in the software engineering professions when GitHub is down. Is this a single point of failure for your company?

Not just for a company, but for developer productivity in general, professional or not...

Think of all the package managers that pull straight from Github repos as part of their installation processes..

For everyone who is currently loosing productivity, perhaps your time might be well spent reviewing `git daemon`: http://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-on-the-Server-Git-Daemon

Had to deploy an important service. And github is down.

perhaps a good time to reconsider depending on a third party for your important services to deploy?

Yes, but these decisions aren't under me plus setting up a github kind of thing is way too time consuming with all the features that we're used to now.

Funny, I switched our projects to Gitlab a week ago and told the team: Because we should not trust a centrealized platform to keep our code decentralized.
