So now everyone who is NOT a geek and reads that article thinks github is where geeks go to waste time and be unproductive.
OK, better add this github to the corporate black list!

Well, considering that 90% on GitHub is crap (Sturgeon's law), they might be right. While there are of course productive repos in it, also consider all the hobbyist repos, me-too repos, NIH repos, useless fork/pull repos, half-baked repos, circle-jerk fad concept/language of the month repos, etc. Those are quite analogous to Facebook, no?
- bh42222 15y agoThose are quite analogous to Facebook, no? No. They would analogous to Facebook only if you are a professional web social marketer or something like that. Then Facebook would be to you like github is for programmers. Still 90% crap, but still somewhat professionally useful crap. For everyone else Facebook is 100% unprofessional. (It may not strictly be a waste of time if you consider genuine keeping in touch with physically remote loved ones.)
