Please don't put support questions in issues!
Please have an alternative then!

True. I think people are pretty well accustomed to that though. Dockerhub, AWS ECR, Google Cloud, etc.
Yes and no. It affects software that's installed via things like Kubernetes pod definitions. You need to "relocate" images to the correct registry in that case. This is a sufficient hassle that one of my colleagues maintains an entire tool devoted entirely to this purpose: https://github.com/pivotal/image-relocation
This is really outstanding. It will mean the death of Maven Central, about which I have mixed feelings. On the one hand, Sonatype deserves enormous thanks for what they have done for the open source world, as does mvnrepository.org. Their central repository has been free and maintained for a long time. Thank you, Sonatype. On the other hand, it took me three days to release a new version of one of my artifacts the ot…
Have you tried Bintray? [1] It's made by JFrog (makers of Artifactory), it's been around for while, it supports lots of formats including harder ones like apt, and it makes package distribution about as easy as it can be. [1] https://bintray.com/

rad project allows you to create, checkout, manage, and publish a project, comprised of issues, patch proposals, and a git repo. Well hot dog. And it uses LISP for scripting? Nice. Interesting approach to saving state, too.: One only needs the address of the latest input, the "head", to be able to recover the whole log. The owner of a machine uses an IPNS link to point to the head of the list, and the name of this li…
It looks the business but it lacks the single most important feature for popularity: a GUI. GitHub made Git dominant by building a friendly GUI on top of it. Before, it was just another player in a relatively crowded field of CLI DVCSs. Obviously it is not essential to get stuff done, but anything with any ambition of generating network effects definitely needs a GUI. The other thing that seems to be lacking, from a…
It's a matter of perspective. My first thought when reading the docs was, "All someone needs to do is slap a GUI on this baby. Good thing the designers made a simple CLI that it could interface with."
They've already done most of the heavy lifting. At this point a GUI is trivial to add. "Terminal–first" doesn't imply "terminal-only". In fact, quite the opposite. I wouldn't be so quick to assume that they don't envision a GUI at some point-- Why not contribute to the project and get the ball rolling?
The patch command [0] has a propose subcommand that describes what you're talking about. It generates a patch from a commit (on any branch, I presume). This can be applied however you see fit. And the checkout subcommand even lets you generate branches from patches similar to GH. What seems to be missing?

> the two major search engines What's the second major search engine? I'm genuinely asking, not meaning to poke if it's Bing - I use DDG but just don't have a feel at all for what's most popular after the obvious one. Wikipedia has just 7% market share left for the second, and the rest - thinking about it's probably one that's popular in China and unheard of elsewhere?
What is the first search engine? Baidu in China. Yandex in Russia. Google in the US. Not sure for India and Latin America. The poster was probably thinking of Bing though, which is ironic because it's maybe less used than these.

Yeah but in the tutorial it says it will fail to work if you are on a different branch from master - I took it to mean that the patch command can only target the same branch it was generated on. If that's the case, obviously the maintainer can then do the manual merge-and-delete routine; I'm just saying that on github it's a one-click operation.

I was assuming a global perspective, for which Google is obviously first. (And I quoted Wikipedia confirming that at a shade under 93% market share.)
If we are to believe these stats, Google is at 3% market share in China. It's basically non existent. http://gs.statcounter.com/search-engine-market-share/all/chi...
Microsoft has developers everywhere in the world, who need docs. There are major search engines besides Google and Bing.
>Github CDN Does any one know if this is actually their own CDN with PoPs around the world, of do they really mean Azure ( Microsoft ) or Fastly, which they were using at one point?

What if they clash (eh user/package exist both on npmjs.com and GitHub)? Does it go through each of the configured repositories in sequence looking for a match?
You configure the NPM client on what your primary registry is. I think this github repo will mirror everything on NPM (?).
