Contributing to Open Source with Quality Assurance
When contributing to Open Data Kit, I noticed that maintainers had a step while reviewing code, of verifying if my change was working on multiple Android versions. This inspired me to incorporate such steps in our community as well. These days at AnitaB.org Open Source we have this step as part of our Open Source workflow, in particular of the Pull Request lifecycle.

Ask HN: How can I back up an old vBulletin forum without admin access?
The format you want is WARC. Even the Library of Congress uses it. There are many many WARC scrapers. I'd look at what the Internet Archive recommends. A quick search turned up this from the Archive Team and Jason Scott https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/grab-site (https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/Who_We_Are) but I found that in less than 15 seconds of searching so do your own diligence.

struggling to download websites
You can use grab-site with --no-offsite-links and --igsets=mediawiki.
- Internet Archive Down, will be up and running soon (i hope).

best tool for downloading forum posts in real-time?
Does the forum provide real-time notification for new posts? Like maybe a RSS feed, or a 'New' section? If so, some scripting around grab-site or httrack could grab them quickly.

How are you archiving websites you visit?
After a lot of searching for a similar topic, this is a tool I found which works pretty well: https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/grab-site

Help building or mirroring docs.microsoft.com
Crawling is of course the other option. I've seen https://github.com/ArchiveTeam/grab-site in the wiki, but I'm unsure how to host the resulting .warc archives.

How to mirror multiple websites correctly?
It's a completely different tool, but I like using grab-site https://github.com/archiveteam/grab-site . Try --wpull-args=--span-hosts='' or something to make it mirror all subdomains. It outputs in WARC format which can be read with a site like https://replayweb.page.

Stack Overflow Developer Story Data Dump (10 whole MB !)
Thusly, as a bit of a statement, here's your "I will do it myself even if I have to bash my head against the wall" collection of the Developer Story on 10-20 top users. I know there are some blogs on old web design, perhaps it might be worth their while as a memento of an era bygone. And as for myself, I am looking into setting up a dedicated server for either grab-site or ArchiveBox. Possibly both!
What are some alternatives?
When comparing collect and grab-site you can also consider the following projects:
OpenCamera-Sensors - Android app for synchronized recording of video and IMU data with advanced camera options, useful for 3D reconstruction, SLAM, AR, video stabilization. Supports remote control over network.
ArchiveBox - 🗃 Open source self-hosted web archiving. Takes URLs/browser history/bookmarks/Pocket/Pinboard/etc., saves HTML, JS, PDFs, media, and more...
