GitHub is so strongly associated with Open Source right now for a few reasons. First, git is decentralized by default. GitHub has very little secret sauce here; most, if not all, of their cool git tricks are actually pushed upstream into the git client to benefit everybody. For remote management, I can run `git init --bare` in any directory on any ol' ssh box I want and then set it up as a remote and get the same exa…
git is decentralized, but the most common workflow makes it basically a slightly better SVN. There is always one authoritative upstream repo, and everyone just pushes to that. Really, GitHub + git is better than SVN in only two ways: better merge tools to make branches cheaper, and local branches. Almost everything else could already be done with SVN (or similar) before. git's decentralized nature is only really used…

> GitHub has very little secret sauce here GitHub's secret sauce was to use dark patterns meant to accelerate the network effect working in their favor. Specifically: 1. Quietly kill patches as the main currency in open source 2. Redefine "pull request" to mean "the thing that happens when you click a certain button on github.com" The end result is that collaborating with GitHub-hosted projects is made arbitrarily di…

Hey, great work! Similar to my project https://commits.io Shoot me an email (ortuna AT gmail) if you want to compare notes. I've done a lot of work on how to get those generation times down.
I would love to order a poster but I just cannot get over the whole -- exposing my teams private code to a 3rd party thing. Any chance you have a hosted version of this?
I'm not big into electronics, but can't you adjust LED's brightness by changing what voltage is sent to them?
blatant gyroscope rip off. nice effort in hacking it together though.
Link to which Gyroscope you mean? It's a very general search term and I haven't come across a service named that otherwise. In any case, I doubt so, or it doesn't even matter. Nothing in the world is really so unique, and especially app ideas on the internet. It's not a new idea to make an infographic style poster from data, so who's ripping off whom?
This would be so much cooler if it was wall-mounted art and 365 LEDs. I'm not big into electronics, but can't you adjust LED's brightness by changing what voltage is sent to them?
