I almost complained about having non-monospaced fonts as a default on the linked page for 'coding', until I started reading this page where they explain the reasons. Still, mono-spaced is much easier for an IDE to interpret and my brain thinks me like it more.

This looks like it's a plugin to macvim; or at least a fork of it.
Re:The Setup: John McAfee on Thursday March 13, 2014 @09:28PM (#7396391)
John McAfee is crazy and any listening to his rants is a waste of time. I unfortunately read this one thinking it was actually a parody, but since there was no punchline, I realize now I've been suckered into another pointless article. I'm still in disbelief that bragging about a gun is actually coming from a 68 year old man(boy?).
Re:500 days – the longest streak on GitHub? on Wednesday February 26, 2014 @07:57PM (#7309510)
I can beat it. Give me about 5 minutes and git filter my commits. Not to take away from the "accomplishment" ( achievement? ) of work, but its easy to create and post date commits to beat this "record".

I don't usually a comment about the things I know little; however this seems harmless enough.

It's apparent to me there is a back story here and the guided reasons were not to demean women, but that's certainly how I feel after rereading the comment in this commit.

It would be wise to not treat things like this lightly in public forums, no matter what the back story is.

+1 for being a quality software solution.

I actually work on this site; and I use it for all of my stuff. It's daily getting better and we are constantly coming out with new features. I would highly advocate people to at least try it out, and suggest features and issues.
