From the discussion

A few top-level comments from Hacker News, shortened. Read the full thread on Hacker News.

They seem to be having an issue with release downloads (https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/212407). Our CI is broken at the moment, unable to download tools used in various checks (gitleaks, etc).

Their status page (lol) says it's working (https://www.githubstatus.com/) but i get a 504 time-out when trying to access repositories
