I don't recall who, but thanks to whoever pointed me to lobste.rs six months ago. It's become a part of my daily news tour You're welcome I thought it was you! :-) (Yes, I looked up the IRC logs before I took credit too.) How did you find the site originally brycec? from qbit and kyle (see: https://lobste.rs/u) :D Oh hey, two of the newest users are my coworkers. Nice, mike-burns I don't get it what does this chart show? Who invited who It's a tree and the number in brackets? Since all user accounts are by invite only. reputation/karma (I'd call them parenthesis. Brackets are square. :p) what would you call curly braces? {} ^ Doggles. (I call them curly braces) and these ones: <> Also, I call [] "square brackets" usually. Not just "brackets" less than, greater than even in a tag scenario etc (or an empty tag if xml/html) yea mnathani: then i'd say "the html tag" could I get an invite for the lobster site? <> is also "not equal to". (also correct) mnathani: sure, I just need your email address nick@gmail.com rather @gmail.com oh I thought you'd snagged nick@ was about to compliment you... and already sent the invite nick@ will be so happy. to nick? or my nick to "nick@" lol Considering IRC will complete your own nick, but won't complete the word "nick" ... it seems simpler to have given the right address. (I would have understood :nick or $nick or even @nick, but I thought you meant literally "nick") and/or PM'd it to me (or used [FBI]'s [Off] syntax (also: %nick% would have been interpreted as a variable) Oh, huh: ten of my coworkers have accounts on Lobsters. (by my brain) is this lobster site kind of like digg where articles / stories get voted up / down up only How about I point you at https://lobste.rs/about "Lobsters is a technology-focused link-aggregation site similar to Hacker News, Reddit, and Slashdot, and borrows some ideas from, while also attempting to fixing problems specific to, each of those sites." do you subscribe via email ? using the mailing list mode? I personally do, yes, just to new stories. Nah, not digest mode. I like invite-only user trees I find it carries the usual benefits of ease of quality pruning
