Nice, they have availability numbers now on their status page, but they aren't aggregating.

If you multiply all current numbers together (as of Apr 28), you find out that GitHub has a 97.26% uptime.

One ... single ... 9.

They can do better.

Kind of unfair though, do the same for any platform with multiple services and you'd probably get <99% for most of them.

Calculating that to "Downtime per day" you get ~40 minutes of downtime per day, almost a week per year. Crazy stuff for something essential like this.
