As much as it sucks when Github goes down, there's a sense in which I look forward to it happening. It's yet another chance for me to get a peek at their architecture. As a high school student it's pretty disappointing to me how hard it is to find fully laid out architectural plans for large websites. So I appreciate sites like Github and Ravelry being open with that information.
