I chose hosts over paths for disambiguation because I want the request passed to the proxy to be as close as possible to that passed to the browser.

Hard to tell right now... I started at Joyent's smallest node.js offering (1GB) and then ramped it up to 8GB when the load hit. The server is crashing a lot, but it's not very easy for me to debug right now. Let me get back to you once the

It merely receives proxied requests, does some stuff to it, then sends it back to the proxy, which returns it to the client. You just described the majority of the web servers that we web developers deal with. Sure, it's a proxy,

Indeed, this isn't entirely original, and I know services like this exist. To me, this is what PUSHER's API _should_ have been.

Ha, tinco beat you to that joke. The server is the smallest instance that Joyent offers right now... hopefully it'll hang in there during the HN rush.

Hey all, I put browserver together in my free time over the last week. It's still a bit of a toy, but I think it's useful to explore ideas around extending webhooks all the way to the browser, to simplify our increasingly complicated web ar

Looks great, Travis. One thing: you should consider building this on jed/dynamo-client[1] instead of jed/dynamo. I refactored the former out of the latter last week, adding exponential back-off retry and the ability to specify custom hosts

I've been waiting for Mathias to write something like this, and I'm glad he didn't waste any time diving in. For those who don't know him, he has more breadth in the area of emerging datastores than anyone I know; he literally wrote the boo

I loved this presentation. But just out of curiosity, why aren't these techniques (not closing tags or quoting attributes) used in HTML5 Boilerplate?

For those not familiar, 140byt.es is a collaborative code-golfing challenge in JavaScript. The objective is to fit as much punch as possible into 140 bytes, and there has been some impressive work from the community. Examples include 140-by

I'd love to see functions too, and am not sure your concerns are necessarily dealbreakers. Optimization should be easier if you use something like node-burrito for the low hanging fruit, and node.js developers are already aware that long sy
