What do you think will be the performance implications of this? My gut feeling is that straight up C is going to be more performant than JavaScript of any variety, when both are done correctly. Also, do you have any ideas yet about how plug

Why do good PR and good tech have to be mutually exclusive? Especially in a community such as Hacker News, shouldn't they be the same thing, in a way?

Yeah, I've confirmed a few different times. Just pushed a build to production. So, let's see what happens when the caches all clear out. Should have posted this on here weeks ago.

Interspersing. I'll admit I didn't do a whole lot of mucking with the actual styles of the bar. I removed, and tweaked elements, but thought surely the CSS itself wasn't the culprit. :/

More likely a semi related change they decided to make as a result of the switch. But I don't have much understanding of the core of Chrome so I could be wrong. Correlation does not prove causation.

This is, in my mind, evidence that companies like this are out of touch. They want to treat Stack Overflow like a search engine and marketing tool to be optimized, and, in their ignorance, don't see it as something different than what

I think the word "Work" above would be better replaced with "Productivity". It's work/life balance, not productivity/life balance. Every hour I can't do what I want at the drop of a pin because I&#x27

I'd like to see how this compares performance-wise with MongoDB and other JSON-based document stores, especially with data sets that are at a larger scale. I know Mongo tends to start crumbling if it can't fit an entire index in t

Worth noting: Having the private keys for all the CA's in the world just means that they could launch a man-in-the-middle attack against a secure service. (Which would be easy for a rudimentary traceroute to detect.) Not that they coul

This seems pretty legit. I really like the personality you gave the site with its design. Do you have any plans to support GitHub repositories as a location to pull source from in the event we don't really want to deploy a jar with our sour

Your comment is based on the assumption that it's impossible for a founder to really care about a silly app that solves some first world problem. I think more to the crux of the issue here is what the founder wants to do. If they want to ma

So, the moral of this story is "communicate clearly the first time or you're going to end up having to communicate clearly about seven or eight times." That said, I don't understand why he felt he had to keep explaining it. He could have ju

Thanks for the feedback. If you want to find me on Twitter and send me your email I can make sure we alert you when we roll out mobile. Hopefully soon. My twitter handle is farmdawgnation. It actually was at one point. I turned it off a few

Thanks for the ideas. We've had all of these ideas come up before. 1 is a clear possibility in the near future (or possibly the ability for it to be configurable) and 3 is configurable by the user (I also want to add a scrolling trigger to

That's an awesome idea. I'm going to pass on a direct link to this comment to the Cirion guys. That's right in their wheel house.

I'm not going to go into conversion rates and exact numbers for the moment. I avoided that in the blog post mostly because we haven't, as a team, had the conversation about how much we want to publish in that regard, and I don't want to mak

That's a good thought. There is an example on the page, but we do need to draw some more attention to it. Maybe we'll do it in style using the <blink> tag. ;) But seriously, thanks again, this is really helpful!

Thanks for the feedback man! And yeah, I guess part of our problem with the Hellobar comparison is that we're solving a problem they've been solving for a small subset of their users for awhile. They're really optimized for "I have a user o

Like I mentioned in the blog post, we have a messaging problem. Though the blog post really wasn't intended to communicate that message. Ha. Our product is an email marketing toolbar that sits the bottom of your blog or website and can acce

They probably can't say anything just yet. It's fair to be mad about them not realizing (or worse, covering up) the breadth of this breach, but do keep in mind that if they're working with the FBI, they've probably been asked to keep a li

Ditto here. I'm a software engineer who is capable of improving or tweaking a design as the project requirements change, but I can't do the entire process from conceptualization to visual design. I'm sure with enough practice I could , but
