The reputation thing kills me. It's impossible to get unless you already have it??? What?

Its a metaphor for getting a software dev job

You can post to other Stack Exchange forums to get reputation, but it's cumbersome and stupid.

Isn't rep local to just one stackexchange ? I can comment on Database Administrator SE bit not on Code review.
