Very interesting idea, and I like the hacking nature of the solution. I was about to ask if it was using my current HN cookie to create that popup but I see now that it is...you basically are reframing the HN pages to fit into that popup, and if the user isn't yet logged in, it shows the HN login page, if you're already logged in then it's taking you to the submit a post page...very cool hack. Someone else had mentioned that it would be an issue trying to do this by scraping, but this could just as easily be done this way. The downside of course (like someone else had mentioned) is that HN users would need to enter in their username/password to perform the scrape to count current post points and the scrape to upvote posts, and if they didn't see ycombinator.com in the URL they would be skeptical in providing these details because an unscrupulous hacker could then use those logins (if they stored them) to upvote all of their own posts. If others are interested in the scrape version of this hack I could make it ...The upside to the scrape hack version would be the fact that the UI could be adjusted as needed, but like others mentioned HN isn't know for it's elegant UI to begin with...it's more about simplicity
