Ask HN: Do you see a Pancake in the top left menu at Github.com?
I'm not kidding.
```
<button data-component="IconButton" type="button" aria-haspopup="dialog" class="prc-Button-ButtonBase-9n-Xk styles-module__appHeaderButton__axedQ prc-Button-IconButton-fyge7" data-loading="false" data-no-visuals="true" data-size="medium" data-variant="invisible" aria-labelledby="_R_1b5_"><span class="GlobalNavMenuToggle-module__pancakeIcon__dE2fg" aria-hidden="true"></span></button>
```
- MatMercer 2mo agoI tried anonymous browsing + secondary account + different computer and I still see it: https://imgur.com/sWQX06Y https://imgur.com/sWQX06Y wth
- dkdbejwi383 2mo agoYes
- Ryan492 2mo agoYes, logged in on GitHub in the Netherlands
- drivers99 2mo agoI created a new account there and have the same thing. There are some posts about it on /r/github
- eff_it 2mo agoTF ... got it as well . What a time to be alive
- jk89b7 2mo agoIt's probably to advertise the Stacked PRs feature: https://github.github.com/gh-stack https://github.github.com/gh-stack Not cute..I thought something had been compromised when I initially saw it.
- TheWiggles 2mo agoThe AI was hungry
- api_dude_365 2mo agoyes i see the pancakes haha. The future is now
- causalmodels 2mo agoIt is wild that amidst all these platform stability issues, GH has decided now is the time to do cutesy marketing for a new feature
- jlund-molfese 2mo agoImagine being a new GitHub user and you're trying to find the menu. Realizing that you have to click on a bunch of pancakes to get where you need to go would be pretty annoying.
- lfx 2mo agoWhy so much hate. I think this is brilliant way to announce new features! It is playful, it is nice, it is something new. Don't take it too seriously.
- herpdyderp 2mo agoHow in the world was I supposed to find out that it was a feature announcement without searching new Hacker News posts?
- coolaj86 2mo agoI did some tech support yesterday and there were 4 different search bars on the screen and several "hamburger" or "triple dot" menus. It was a nightmare trying to communicate "the search bar in the middle left menu list" and "the triple dot on the right below the search bar". Considering that Github's new target market is people who don't know how to read or code, I think this is a genius move.
- CLF7 2mo agoIt's funny to see that people here are more stressed out. Relax, this isn't going to break your production.
- bold_iggl 2mo agoYes, I saw the pancake 24 hours ago or so. Now it's gone. Gonna check the bin or something.
