  1.  @uis246  Yeah, his rants are the best. Some people rant and it's completely inane, but not his, he keeps it on point and chock full of information.

  2. I believe it, but not because the change is a simple one, but rather because I was just such a persnickety child like that who hated things being misaligned. To this day I'll rearrange my code to form patterns. For instance, when declaring all of my variables I'll make sure the lines go from short to long and as the function closes out the lines will go from long to short.

  3. Yep, every project needs documentation and that's something that even a user who's not technically inclined can contribute.

  4. I can kind of understand that reluctance as I don't have a GitHub account myself. Although, how would you even find the developer on IRC if they don't use it, and since IRC is an immediate mode of communication, if they're never on at the same time as you, then you'll never be able to tell them. I would suggest e-mail if you could find their address, which these days is a pretty big if.

  5. I still don't have a GitHub account, so I'm wondering can you have it not display your age or does it require it to be in your profile if you're under 18?

  6.  @ArbitraryCodeExecution  I would rather opt to not show it in any circumstance. Consider that ageism can go both ways. People tend to lack respect for your ability if they think you're too young, but they can also consider you out of touch if you're too old.
