Pretty sure that's what: http://begriffs.github.io/showpiece/playground/ is for :)

Now it makes sense. Where is this demo page linking to the playground?

Good question...

Ghostery is definitely the issue.

And all engineering software is useless because it allows you to plan out your design ahead of time. I'm glad I know that now. Thanks for your insightful hyperbole.

Also there are some useful example states on GitHub: https://github.com/esacteksab/salt-states

My salt states are public[1] and include among other things setup for nginx/redis/postgresql/uwsgi which powers a few Django and Flask sites.

I wouldn't mind it personally.

As a VIm user, I wish we had a website that was that gorgeous. Congratulations on a successful redesign. Just don't expect to convert any vim users. ;P

Are you sure, we have Evil-mode and everything ;)

Pretty sure. I'm going to learn lisp anyway, just to be safe.

You know what you must do now. Pull that sucker out and start looking at the skies again, with your kids too if you have them.

Because security really is never a good reason to be skeptical and skepticism, no matter how valid, is just a cloak for hating on Google. I love GMail and lots of Google's products. I even like that this feature will be limited to companies that register with Google. It doesn't change the fact that those partners could be broken into and used to send out malicious emails.

Also, please don't try to insinuate that I'm against the feature. I'm not. I can stop using GMail if I ever want to. I just think everyone should consider their own security and decide how valuable it is to them based on reasonable possibilities.

It's both interesting and awesome that the dominant community wasn't the first to reach community status. Then again, the python community could have become lazy and just assumed they'd be the first. Congratulations to Hong Minhee on making Korea the first community on Gittip.

It took five hours, 51 minutes, and 36 seconds for Korea to go from 1 to 150 members.

Is this some kind of competition (serious question)?

It is a friendly competition to encourage participation.

> market the resulting product or service

and

> Understanding what the customer needs

Seem to be intended to go together but are really disjoint. Marketing the product isn't the same as understanding the needs of the customer. You can do both but they aren't implicitly the same thing.

Also, I don't quite understand how this is news worthy. It's an interesting thought, but there's no real discussion about any of this and as others have noted, there's no mention of Operating Systems or Systems Programming.
