Yeah, there's not much more in the article than here. And I wonder what browser they were using for those screenshots - the bar graphs are empty!

hey groxx, author here. I was using Chrome 14 for the screenshots. I noticed myself that the bar graphs were completely empty this morning after I had taken my screenshots. There might have been a temporary issue with Github

Given the rate these terrible articles from Bostinnovation are getting upvoted, I think something is suspect.

hey sandosky, author here. I write engineer-focused content (http://bostinnovation.com/author/kevin-mccarthy/), so it doesn't come as a surprise to me when some of my pieces make their way to hacker news. 'terrible' is a subjective matter, no?

In the context of another site, that article may be fine. In the context of this site, that article is terrible.

There is a mismatch in the target audience. There is an assumption the reader has not heard of projects and services common to Hacker News readers, such as Github itself.

You also just promoted yourself in the response.
