It looks like pg is still in the middle of changing things. A moment ago I could see other people's comments' scores in the replies on my "threads" page; now I can't.


I have noticed things changing around too.

I hear there is this thing called a "dev server"...


I usually do development on my local machine, but for small things like this I use the server's repl.


Nice. I wondered why things were changing quickly but there were never any page load errors.

I don't trust myself not to kill my app with a live REPL :)


I do it in a live production environment and it can often give you a nice adrenaline flush. I do occasionally fat-finger things, so I try to avoid it.


The lack of a dev server is what separates a "hacker" from a "software engineer". Besides, who hasn't gotten a thrill from tinkering with a live site?
