Maybe that’s why volunteer dev work for LW is so hard to come by. Everybody takes one look at the DB and decides they would prefer a very long vacation in Sarlacc, Tatooine.
Didn’t even get to the point of getting the DB up and running when I looked into it before I ran out of motviation (at that time). LW-hacking is not particularly accessible, though it’s not clear how high making it more accessible is as a priority.

When did you last try? You should be able to more-or-less go
git checkout
→vagrant up
and have everything pretty much ready to go. https://github.com/tricycle/lesswrong/wiki/Development-VM-Image
