This reminds me of reactions to the HN Dropbox announcement [1], "Just set up FTP, curlftpfs and SVN". Same could be said for hosting a site, or hosting your code, or using EC2 instances, or buying precooked meals, and so on. Some

Just so people know where to find this in case they forget, it's in the header of `env/bin/activate.fish`. # This file must be used with ". bin/activate.fish" from fish ( http://fishshell.org)*
