Too few sampled comments (2) to say how often HN recommends it.?

Why HN links it

Linked posts cover personal security images (the corn-on-the-cob example) and Gittip's crowd-sourced patronage model. HN commenters cite them as background for their own points in those threads.

Summarised by Claude from a sample of 2 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

I like to unpack complex things and explain them in ways that help people make good decisions and get things done.

  3. Yes, Gittip is crowd-sourced patronage. In another context I've said that Gittip will be born when the first person announces that they're depending on it for their livelihood: http://ryandeussing.com/blog/2012/09/24/chad-whitacre-gittip... Personally, I think we'll get there in a year or two.
