Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Github every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Github — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Github?

Github runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone.

Is Github open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 139 stars on GitHub and 32 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
