I kind of prefered the old InfluxDB website but it may be a question of getting used to it. Either way I'm a fan, keep up the good work!

That's exactly the thing, in an ideal world it would try to infer the language automatically, but still let you change it if you are not happy with it.

Just opened the dev tools in Canary. Not a big fan of that "mobile-first" device bar to be honest. As a primarily desktop dev, the previous device mode worked better for me (enable it when you need it, disable it when you don'

Not just for Linux users: If you are using f.lux on windows but wish that you could control the temperate on demand (rather than it being automatic according to the current time) switch to Redshift and don't look back.

I've been using this minimal extension for a while solely for that: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hacker-news-collap... It's definitively something that should be built in though.

Grafana + InfluxDB are the simplest to get up and running. Literally two binaries that you download and run, that's it. Can't beat the simplicity of this set up and you can get a lot done with it, if you are just starting your met

That's a pretty impressive monopoly, for some reason I always thought those "YouTube-like" sites were competing against each other. MindGeek may well turn out to be the Google of porn.

I've experienced this, and it's a major pain the ass if we are talking about not just testing but making it work for AdBlocker users. In our case once we had to resort to rewording the method name in our REST AJAX API endpoint s

Indeed, intents could address this beautifully, and even better we wouldn't need to shove a third party script for every like/share button out there, which would be a big win for the web as a whole.

Chicken and egg problem, from the point of view of the end user it makes sense and I would have the same reaction, but then I think to myself, shouldn't we give a chance for a "Show HN" product/service to turn into a Sla

It was never fully p2p was it? Calls and messaging may have been p2p at some point before Microsoft, but you still needed an account managed by a centralized entity to authenticate with the service.

Perhaps a bit tangential, but I find QR codes to be a strange beast. In theory they are a perfectly fine solution to a real problem, but no one wants to scan them in real life. And yet they managed to stay around and flourish, because it&#x

Good read, but I wonder why didn't he hire a tax advisor to deal with VATMOSS? It's usually not that expensive even if you are not doing revenue, and unless you are in the business of taxes there's little to gain in doing it
