I upvoted the original submission because I think this is an interesting and important problem for maintainers of large OSS projects.

It would be nice for Github to provide some administrative tools or interface changes to make maintainers' lives easier. However, I am tentatively in agreement with the posters who suggest that this is largely a management problem.

I've read the examples you linked, Jeremy, but I don't see why those issues (and the majority of issues on large-scale projects) require review by the head maintainer/BDFL. Most of these issues are chaff - either they're not reproducible, poorly explained, or requesting features which have already been discussed and dismissed. It shouldn't need Mark's or your time to say "nope, works for us" or "already decided we're not doing that".

At Coffeescript/Backbone/Bootstrap/etc levels of activity, you have a huge, vibrant community. Out of all those thousands of developers, surely there are a couple of active contributors who can't commit to the project at the "core dev" level but who have to skill and time to take on the role of "issue maintainer"?

According to the article, password-protected files aren't reasonable grounds for suspicion. What about refusing to log into your machine or give up your login password?

Seconded! This is the first I've heard of problems with Gmail's filtering/forwarding.

A brief quibble - Reddit was not "forced" to do anything. They chose to create and utilize fake accounts/conversations, but they certainly could have chosen not to do so.

I took the LSAT in 2009. I scored 166, which was in the 93rd percentile. Mensa lists their cut-off as the 95th percentile, so your 163/92 figure is inaccurate, at least for recent years.

  "The story of their collaboration—including Jobs’ attempt to lecture Weeks on the principles of glass and his insistence that such a feat could be accomplished—is well known."

It's not well known to everyone. This is the first I've heard of this, and a quick search didn't turn up anything beyond the details in this article.

Excellent article otherwise!

Have you checked out the LESS code (instead of the compiled CSS)? The file variables.less has the same settings (with comments!) as the online customizer. It's much faster to tweak that file and recompile than it is to use the compiler.

I'd prefer Stylus over both LESS and SASS. Now that Bootstrap is relatively stable, I intend to port it.

Not bad! I was previously using a combination of the Georgify and Collapsible comment extensions. Your extension is better in some ways and worse in others.

Suggestions: Collapse link shouldn't be on the far right, and collapsed comments should only show 1-2 lines regardless of actual length. Link color brightness could be taken down a few notches. Reply link shouldn't be underlined.

Some of the positions on your jobs page sound very interesting, but your application page is a major turn-off, with too many form fields and requesting personal information like a home address and complete salary history.

I'd like to see the version of your site which displays ads.

I get things done. In three years running the IT department for a trading firm: configured Cisco 6509s and 7600s, deployed dozens of servers, built a new intranet site, replaced an ancient Cisco IP telephony setup with Asterisk, improved risk monitoring tools, wrote performance monitoring tools, did budget forecasting, trained a new team, implemented black- and greybox algorithms, rewrote security policy, and managed staff at our Mumbai branch.

Degree in CS/Math. Canadian and Venezuelan passports, Greek passport soon (ah, bureaucracy!).

I'm available from Feb 1. Non-USA strongly preferred, especially Hong Kong, Melbourne, London, or Buenos Aires. pikeas@gmail.com

I don't need to know a comment's score, just the score's magnitude provides a lot of utility. In the same way that a grayed-out comment signifies a poor reply, find a way to show me whether a comment is neutral, slightly positive, very positive, or stupendously positive.

Against the original binary uploaded to the spacecraft, I would hope.

There's a replacement keyboard (~$20) that alleviates most of your problems. It's still a bit cramped, but at least the key positions make sense.
