Agreed, but I don't see an option to update/edit the title. Do I need to have more karma points for that?

No, you pretty much have to wait for the mods to notice it.

HN needs a better mechanism to highlight posts for the mods.

I think that mechanism is to write an email to hn@ycombinator.com

The screenshot looks a bit like Chef's Automate. The config example looks like Concourse's config (http://docs.screwdriver.cd/user-guide/configuration/index#ya...), but it doesn't look like they have task files.

They should write up a comparison to GoCD, Teamcity, Concourse, Jenkins, Chef Automate, etc. It can be pretty hard to evaluate these things without losing a month.

I was gonna put up something full of sarcasm. Then I realize engineers are the least responsible for enterprise business failure. This could happen to any of us. Company goes under water and job security fades away. Thanks for contributing to the open source world. And best of luck to all of those brother and sister engineers.

Job security does not fade away for software developers for now

I think it's extremely unlikely that the higher ups who ran Yahoo into the ground had any idea of the talent they wasted. Nor do I think they would care then, or now even if they did. After all, apparently working from home was verboten at some stage during MM's reign...
