We don't do "company hack days". If you feel like hacking on something, hack on it.
We do have days where multiple people will be waiting in line waiting for their chance to deploy their tweak.
That particular day consisted of staff deploys on multiple in-progress branches, some performance tuning, bug fixes, etc. Nothing crazy.
I'm also quite sure the number counts deploys across all of our applications. For instance, deploying a change to github-services counts as two, since I have to deploy changes to GitHub.com also.

For instance, deploying a change to github-services counts as two, since I have to deploy changes to GitHub.com also. That might explain a lot. Still a lot of deploys, but a more sane count :-)
- rsanheim 14y agoWe did have a pretty amazing week right after the summit, where everyone was on fire to ship things and there were a lot of people "in line" to get things deployed. It was pretty awesome, actually, seeing so many things land within a week of the whole team gathering and discussing the future.
