Considering that it's Github, how about things relevant to software engineering, like: agree, disagree, support, insightful, obsolete, misleading. I can't imagine it being helpful to know that someone felt "heart" about an issue comment.

    aaron patterson, aka @tenderlove. rails and ruby core contributor. [edit: at least that's who I presume the GP meant]

    Perhaps he meant Aaron Patterson (https://github.com/tenderlove https://github.com/tenderlove) "tenderlove"? Not sure.
