Sass + SCSS overrides and overloads the rgba() function so it can also take parameters in the format rgba($color, $alpha), e.g. rgba(#000, .5).

It'd be pragmatic to leverage that overload and use hex colors that much more consistently in SCSS. If GitHub folks aren't writing much raw CSS this line can be trimmed further, * Use hex color codes #000(SCSS'rgba()function is overloaded to accept hex colors as a param, e.g.,rgba(#000, .5)). (since Sass' overriding of rgba() isn't obvious perhaps good to spell it out explicitly here).
