As an aside, the Clay Shirky quote ("Institutions will try to preserve the problem to which they are the solution.") was new to me, but puts the RIAA/MPAA pretty much perfectly into perspective. Not really related to the article, but it cl

What I would love is a fuzzy finder that also did a 'git grep' for the search string too, so I could open files defining a function for example.
