Thanks, this is a really cool suggestion. Until now, I was totally unaware of the HTML5 context menu. Also, I really like the idea of using an icon that tries to flow well with the body of the text instead of obtrusively covering it up. And

We (CloudFlare) are in a pretty nice position, in that we can present a simple UI to our users (site owners) that allows them to fully configure the apps we serve without requiring them to touch any code. Giving site owners the option to pr

For what it's worth, I personally encourage the usage of NoScript, and other similar tools, to my friends and family. That said, what I'm trying to propose is that the UI for the app could allow site visitors to communicate a dissatisfactio

Some people like the Google toolbar. I don't use it personally (nor would I ever choose to), but that doesn't mean it doesn't hold value for other people. That said, two facts for you: 1) We don't gain any kind of advertising revenue from t

Thank you for clarifying what you meant by this. As it turns out, we actually changed the behavior at the last minute to do a search query every time text is selected (which is what I believe you are saying is bad about Apture). We made thi

That's a very good point on both counts. In some ways this duplicates existing functionality (although in our case, it is mostly a side effect of trying to provide our users with the same features they would be losing when Apture is shut do

It seems like an easy way to disable it outright and permanently is a feature people would like to have. While noscript (and similar tools) would certainly solve this on a per-visitor basis, if we (CloudFlare) could provide a novel way to p

That's definitely an option we can consider giving our users. It wouldn't be the first time we've supported a feature like that. Thanks for the idea!

That's a good idea. It's difficult to communicate the purpose of a "permanently opt out of this feature" button from the little widget that pops up, but it's definitely something we could integrate into the main window that expands. Would t

Hi, I'm one of the engineers working on the Apture replacement (Highlight). Care to be more specific about the biggest gripes you had with Apture's original implementation? As far as the general UI and UX is concerned, I'm not sure what we

CloudFlare engineer here. Just wanted to say thanks for the positive assessment :) having so many awesome users keeps us feeling really positive about the stuff we do.

I'll take the alleged mob mentality over Google elitism any day of the week. Google can try to move the web any direction it feels is appropriate - it's Google's time, it's Google's money - but let's be clear: JavaScript is not as deficient

"...given that they should be grasping for any chance to leave the warty and dated pile of compromises that is Javascript behind..." I would not characterize the JavaScript community as desperate graspers, but even so, I don't see the virtu

In all fairness, you removed the actual print function from the code. Inspection of the non-compiled source suggests that the entire function execution as shown in /2 is called for every call to Dart's print. print$getter()(1, $noargs, 'Hel

by cdata 15y ago
Let's be realistic with ourselves here: is all that overhead ever going to compete with ten lines of "low level" (ha..) JavaScript? No. The problem here, and what is making us chuckle so much, is that the project as presented to us is not m

I'm chilling at the hackathon right now. Somehow made it through the night, and the Dart Chaos Wars. Come say hi to me and the rest of the CloudFlare team at our booth (pictured in the gallery :)!

Frankly, that describes the whole Node Knockout this year. It was pretty disappointing.

I would strongly urge you to consider starting out with ACE instead of relearning the lessons learned by those who came before you. ACE is a well-tested, relatively-performant, extendable-by-design basis for any web-based text editing proje

I am an engineer at CloudFlare. I've got the page in question open in front of me in IE7, but I'm not having any issues with the CAPTCHA submission. Can you provide any additional details about the problem you're experiencing?

It would definitely fit into git's naming convention for commands better. Whether or not that makes it stickier with users is probably an question only focus testing can answer :)

First, this is a really cool idea, and something that I need. Second, at the risk of disrupting the author's groove (and further belaboring the established criticism of the project name), I've become accustomed to git's convention for comma

In some ways, Chrome has reset the bar for updates. Google has shown that you can have silent background updates containing meaningful features that don't (in general) break add-on compatibility. People may have felt deterred by this in the
