it is being a early adopter, think of guys on twitter having 2 letter id's, you can't get those anymore

unless you are already a celebrity or you have great contribution in your line of work, people do judge you by their prejudices including member since on github

"People have prejudices against late-adopters"

Also a good point. I was a late adopter to github, as I had troubles wrapping my brain around "socialized programming" as it related to what I considered a "personal" project.

I saw the light, and signed//repo'd up. In 2013.

The line in the article I referenced made me pause, so I thought I'd ask.

Yeah but if you're like me bringing up some of the nice nuggets, still viable, from hard copy in some cases and media that's fallen off the cliff (SUN cartridge tapes, etc) can be a bit more than tedious.
