Ah, thanks for this. I tried to run reddit on my machine. However, I got into many dead ends, the redditdev IRC was quiet, and because I had no idea what I was doing with MacPort or the Terminal (or my filesystem or the many different paradigms I had to deal with) I lost all faith in me trying to understand how sysadmins (or python developers) got things done. Essentially, I became contempt for being a noob of a CS student, but at least I know how to run a virtual machine and prove by induction. That's a job skill right?
