FYI: Even if you didn't make an account, nothing stops you from reading along.

And while i'm fine with having objections against github, i think basic decency and politeness and respect for Scott's work who had no big choice in where he got feedback means at the very least the two threads he linked should've been read.

Was there some kind of conception that an account was needed to read?
