Huge shout out to @jcs for adding public views to the Lobsters metric system. You can now see breakdowns and graphs for site requests, comments submitted, stories submitted, and users created. This is another step toward making Lobsters an open and transparent community.
Side note, I did not know continual was a thing, and open sourced at that. Neat, gonna read it.
It probably shouldn’t exist, but setting up Graphite and all of its Python baggage gave me trouble.

Altogether, very neat. Good work, guys!

Asked and answered!
Nice job.
I wonder if the new users correlates to HN outages?
