You can see the smoke being blown south pretty clearly here http://col.st/DGu7J

Its weird, I never missed the key when I hit it but it always felt strange due to lack of feedback. I ended up binding Capslock to Escape and training myself to use that instead. Now I don't care at all.

> Because the Oculus headset works on Steam games, but the Vive doesn't out of the box work with Oculus Home. You can make it work, but it's not quite official.

Works with seated SteamVR experiences, but not room scale ones, which I think is a more compelling experience.

Be sure the email you commit with is also on your key. May not be your primary GH email address.

You can add emails to your GPG key. I added my normal committer email to my keybase key and added the key to GitHub as well and all is working well!

Tell that to my cat who refuses to eat wet food, but loves kibble. She opted to not eat most of her kibble when I mixed the two.

> I'd also like to see "turning boxes" where to make a left you go to a perpendicular boxed out area on the right and wait for your light. They have these in Asia for scooters and bikes.

These are popping up all around SF, its very nice. Thanks SF Bike Coalition!

I've heard it used often in conjunction with benefits given to minorities. For example, a university offering a scholarship for African Americans is sometimes criticized for being reverse racist.

"beer-thirty" is now "The Show" and "drink-ups" are now called "Meetups". This article is rather old.

Showing diffs for binary assets doesn't need to include things like "brightness 1%". GitHub currently supports image diffs, they're simply displayed side by side, or on top of each other.

There's an example server that was also open sourced today: https://github.com/github/lfs-test-server

All the sources I've seen just show the tweets and then go on to say how he went rogue and removed the repository. Seems like a really weak argument.

Wait so Jake Boxer responding on Twitter to Nexxy is considered proof that he removed it? I don't think that holds up.

> Github has been known to remove files and repositories simply because employees don't like them, despite them not actually breaking any ToS.

Do you have any source on that?

No bueno! Any specific PDF file? We only render a small number of pages by default to ensure browsers can handle it :)

That should definitely not happen. Does that consistently happen when you click that link?

Sorry about that. I've updated it with a slowed down version :)

I used Quicktime to do a screen recording before taking that to GifBrewery to make the gif.

> I've heard that their employees do shady things on occasion (2nd hand knowledge).

Care to elaborate?

This is an impressive pain in the ass. I race too and the only lock its ever trusted behind is a deadbolt. I bought a very nice mid 80s road bike for my commuter because its about as light as an entry level race bike but looks like nothing special.

If you really care, get the fancier lock (Kryptonite Fuhgettaboutit (http://www.amazon.com/Kryptonite-997986-Black-Fahgettaboudit...) they recommend and buy locking skewers. Then don't buy a new bike, but get a mid-80s steel bike and call it a day. I've left bikes locked up in the worst neighborhoods in SF overnight and haven't had shit stolen.

You were able to hail a cab in the street? Lucky you. I've had cabbies refuse to take me to where I want to go. I've called cab companies, told them where I am, and they refuse to come pick me up. I've seen a cab turn down an elderly couple want to go across town because his "meter was broken", but 2 minutes later take a fare that just went a couple blocks. And I'm a white male. Minorities have an even harder problem getting cabs.

Depending on where you live, cabs are not always something that is just as easy or reliable as Uber/Lyft/Sidecar/etc. When I'm unable to get home for whatever reason, I need a service I can rely on.

My favorite feature of SMS authentication is when I get locked out of accounts because I'm traveling and using a different SIM.

We're not

You end up with less developers having to pull & merge/rebase if you have things in separate repos.

Individual libraries/dependencies get worked on by themselves, with an API that other applications use. Then the other apps just bump a version number and get newer code.

You may be sympathetic, but it seems like most people aren't. Most folks start saying what they'd do better and how they could improve the availability in a weekend.

Yup! Its even linked to in the blog post.

The bar is context sensitive. Search from your newsfeed, and it searches all of GitHub. If you're looking at a repo, you by default search that repo.

A lot of folks from the GIS community. As mentioned in the blog post, people will already storing this data on GitHub, now it's simply presented in a nicer fashion :)

And as you mentioned, sometimes just providing the tools empowers the community to do to do amazing things.
