It's solid on the Chrome stable and beta channels, but possibly not on Canary. I'd hope they'll wait until sass 3.3 is released before removing the debug-info support from more stable channels.

Do you have the 'sass-rails' gem in your Gemfile? It's possible to have the asset pipeline work with just the 'sass' gem, but to get the full debug-info that Chrome requires you need to be using 'sass-rails' and specify the config options mentioned in the post.

Watching Triumph of the Nerds with my Dad in the mid-ninties is one of my fondest memories, and played no small part inspiring me to study computer science and subsequently get involved with starting companies.

Accidental Empires (the book), remains full of detailed insights into the emergence of Silicon Valley and startup culture. The fact the show was set in the mid ninties may make it seem a tad dated by today's standard, but it was fascinating to watch Cringely talk with Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, John Sculley, folks from IBM, Xerox, and more.

As a 15 year old watching on a sofa from 6,000 miles away, I was incredibly inspired by the tales of dedication to product creation and hyper growth. It's a part of what inspired me to move to the Bay Area years later.

I look forward to re-reading the annotated version of Accidental Empires and hope Bob continues to write (and interview!) for many years to come.
