It's great that your helping people, but this message could help more people if 
you provided the relevant context from the links.

Mailing lists have a lot of trade-offs, but the biggest upside is that we can 
keep and reference the discussions. GitHub gists and reddit are not accessible 
to as many people or platforms as this list reaches, nor will the availability 
be as long.

Best,
Alex
