- cyounkins 5y agoI'm familiar, and have wrote them myself. The "mortem" part of "postmortem" means death, so they are usually written after something has died or failed, like a startup or a project, and the document explains why it failed. Having "postmortem" in the title implies the language bot failed. I don't think this is what you meant.
- jph 5y agoYes you're correct, the GitHub language bot failed. It created a bunch of incorrect changes and pull requests that repo teams rejected. It caused many complaints to the author and to me. The author disabled it a few hours later.
