This vulnerability, which doesn’t affect my installation, would take approximately 5 minutes to patch if it did. With that exception, my server will have had approximately 99.999% uptime over the last several years.

It would take a boatload of such events to equal the opex of GitHub hosting. That’s not an excuse to run amok, but it’s far from tipping the scales in GitHub’s cost favor.

Yep. I have one hanging off an openbsd machine on a tailnet, took me like... 5 minutes to update it, and it's not exactly a common setup...
