It works well. Fun

You don't contribute to open source because you think you need to contribute to open source. That only leads to "don't know where to start" paralysis.

You contribute to an open source project because it had a bug or lacked a feature you needed and you took care of it. There is no paralysis when you have laser-focus on a particular problem.


I'd like to learn more about what you mean by fractal approach --- would you expand on it? thanks


take a look at this style guide: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XXMvReO8-Awi1EZXAXS4PzDz...

the code is organized by component, which can be further divide as much as you see fit


looks great, very professional... but it appears not to be free.


If an application wants to offer their users multi-factor authentication with LaunchKey it's free. If the application wants to use it internally for their employees with some of the Pro features or requires forced factors then it starts costing money. Non-profits it's free.


Good point. Perhaps we need a "Terminal" program for windows that just works, installs the common bash tools for windows, and everyone is referred to.

I say this because if a windows user actually opens up their terminal and types in wget, I'd say they're lucky to give up so early considering that the terminal they're using is straight trash. You can't even make it full screen.


This is wrong on so many levels. There are lots of ways on any given platform that will get you what you want without wget. Since powershell is installed by default since w7 it'd be nicer to just (new-object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadFile or similar. I'm also offended by the bash-referrals as a zsh-user :)


I thought one of the changes in later versions of PowerShell was there is now an internal version of wget? I know when I use the gnu one I have use specify "wget.exe" instead of "wget" (Invoke-WebRequest) but I can't remember when I started having to. Windows 8 perhaps?


In fact lein will use powershell if it doesn't find wget.


Is Cygwin unsatisfactory?


For quick start, light uses it absolutely is.


One can find windows binaries for popular unix commands.



Yes!


Bitcoin


Because everyone wants to limit their crowd-funding project to a micro-niche of internet users competent enough to use this internet currency.

Bitcoin has a long way to go before it's as easy to use as Paypal.

Coinbase (out of Y combinator) is getting there.
