Awesome Sony. Hope you gave it to him good. Is this for real? The moment I read the comments I was like, "this is so different from the view people have on HN". Also I am sure these are kids who just swear by their consoles. Sadly they ar

Here is what is wrong after having been taught in a decent engineering college in India. 1) One studies hard trying to get into a decent engineering college. If they are even wee bit good, they get into a decent college. Sidenote: For anyon

Added! http://userstyles.org/styles/46180/georgify-for-hacker-news Please note this has a fixed width issue in Chrome. Works fine in Firefox. So I would recommend Chrome extension for chrome users and Stylish for FF

Surprised since the only change I did was add padding to the top and bottom. Wonder how that changed threading. I am not using one line of JS for this. Any suggestions as to what could be causing this?

An update has been posted that solves some of these issues (2, 4). (3) Fluid has a deterimental effect at lengthier line span (when it exceeds 50-60 chars). Hence limited at 700 px. (1)On HN visited links are read emails for me. Hence they

Use a fluid width with min and max width so that the reading span does not grow too big or small. No matter what screen you have, anything longer than 70-80 chars in a single line is a pain to read. That is the reason readability and Safari

It is hard to target comment points specifically without changing the color of entire line. Also I normally avoid looking at Comment points to avoid any bias and bring neutrality in my reaction to a comment. Again this maybe different for y

Good work. You might want to reduce the width since long lines are bad readability wise. Golden rule of 40-60 chars each line.

Normally you would not want to see that. I do not want to see it atleast. Also that makes the URLs work as an Inbox/Unread badge for me. With what I can see as the unread ones I need to read before the end of day. Will tweak it a bit though

Yes, that is an issue I am looking to fix. Basically has got to do with HN markup being the ugliest thing I have seen. Tables all along with no classes and whatsoever. So targeting is a pain in the ass. Will see if using pseudo class for fi

The idea originated from a restriction that I wanted a particular styling on homepage with the source website link flushed right. On second thoughts I realised that this works way better for comments since the upvote should NOT have anythin

Yes, will be putting the CSS on Github later in the day.

Just to be sure, what exactly is a management risk? Risk due to founders being naive about business strategies and its complexities?

If I am not wrong, Chrome behaves in a similar fashion too, right?

Great perspective from Paras in the article. No doubts the way his business has grown is actually a story of how determination and simplicity in an established industry can lead to great businesses. However, using a blanket statement to cha

Why would one not prefer to use http://droptun.es/ . Is it the added meta info about music and other things that Amazon can use since it has a huge collection of music?

I am curious here. Does a UI Designer fall in the category of a Non technical co-founder? If so how do the dynamics change when a designer approaches a developer to co-found a team for an idea that the designer came up with?

Why the downvote? It is redundant and I just dropped a note of English usage. If one has to emphasis, it would be "Even my wife...". Just like saying Round circle or Straight line! Or is the point of commenting only when you add hacking inf

Problem with such a cool yet common domain is that you do not get shown at the top unless you already are big. Also how does it feel: " I am using color" vs "I am using Colors"?
