Dogfood Track 1

[tmarble]

The goal of this ticket is to walk through Track 1 like a student and ensure things are up-to-date and easy to understand.

Should we keep git branching?

File issues in Track 1 repo as needed

@tmarble I feel silly saying this but I don't know how to assign this to myself. I am working on it though.

Woops, was messing with how to assign you @lanejo01 I think you might need to be in the organization or something? There should be an assinees section off to the right.

[brian-dawn]

OK @lanejo01 added you to the organization, once you join you should be able to assign it to yourself! :D

I've been wondering about the value of showing a traceroute in Chapter 2: Big Picture

If we keep it maybe we should have a shorter route that actually has a ping at every hop.. for
example here is my traceroute to Facebook:

Surprising bugs in Nightcode (at least on Linux):

OMG Nightcode is buggy on Linux.. the Save button isn't properly highlighted on file mutation
I think we may need to have atom as a backup (maybe even replacement?). The basic code editing stuff is just borked for me on Linux.. Copy/paste only pastes correctly 1/10. Several times when the Save button is greyed out it hasn't actually saved. Love to know if this behavior is repeated on Mac or Windows
1:55 The fact it doesn't sort files by name in the tree view in the left nav is just shocking

Addressed in #53

Not critical, but annoying things left out of .gitignore by the lein template:

# Emacs backup files
*~
# OS generated files
.DS_Store
.DS_Store?
._*
.Spotlight-V100
.Trashes
ehthumbs.db
Thumbs.db

The instructions say lein with-profile trampoline run but that must be obsolete (reverts to just lein run):
(Warning: profile :trampoline not found.)

Should probably add pointers to the github instructions for setting up ssh-agent.

Dependencies horribly out of date.. See current deps here: project.clj
(verified with lein deps :tree)

Keeping this open until the last minute because every real review finds some improvement.
