I wonder how many companies are unable to deploy new updates now because they rely on Github?

Friends don't let friends deploy on Fridays... it's always a horrible idea.

Especially in France where it's 5:27.

Deploying on Friday is fine if you can rollback quickly :)

I think the point was that you don't want to be messing with production when people are going to be gone for days. Even if it's easy to roll back I'd just as soon not deal with it. If your application is of such importance that rolling a change out Friday v. Monday makes a different in the business's bottom line, that business can almost certainly afford to have weekend staff that could cover it.

Not if you've got your CI configured properly.
