@scrutinizerci any plans for code highlighting? E.g.

I'm impressed by @scrutinizerci . It's nice to see code quality services with Python support.

I'm coming to the conclusion that /etc should be in a versioned file system (e.g. NILFS), or related tool like etckeeper.

There must be a market for a link shortener that also does caching like http://t.co/k36c5o5UpI. It would actually combat link rot.

I'm sufficiently nervous about running rm (especially with globbing) that I end up doing `mv PATTERN /tmp` most of the time.

iptables-save is a rather poor name. It just writes your current rules to stdout!
