Re:A letter about Google AMP on Tuesday January 09, 2018 @05:55PM (#16110967)
When you navigate to an AMP site there is a very clear icon at the top to click and go to the site's actual domain. I don't understand what this letter is so upset about - if they have such a problem, they should build their own search engine.
Google Netflix Facebook etc. could stand to benefit by being able to afford faster speeds than younger smaller companies. The cost to compete is going to be higher, thus easier to maintain monopoly status.
Hey how about you spit ball some of those ideas over here? I bet there's plenty of hungry programmers in here eager to make them come to life

That is not an example of Brandolini's law. It took a whole website to spew the bullshit but only 3 or so sentences for you to refute it.

This reminds me of those flip-books you made when you were younger (or of current age, whatever).

So you're saying a company that profits from disrespecting artists around the world is troubled?
Re:Show HN: Spendy – a simple money tracker (iOS app) on Saturday June 21, 2014 @08:46PM (#7926503)
Great app, I've been looking for a simple, bare bones budget tracking app.

I think you need to fix the flow for the first time users. If every first time user must add a currency, why not have first time user screen be the add currency screen? Also, the add currency screen should have suggestions. It wasn't initially clear that I needed to type 'USD' instead of 'dollar'. It also wasn't clear that the currency needed to be in capital letters. I had usd in lowercase and clicking the check mark did nothing. There should at least be feedback.

The app is great once getting past the first screen. Nice job.

Its easier to match the aspect ratio using this tool vs scaling down a browser (how do you know the dimensions of your browser?)
Re:Show HN: Test your website's responsiveness on Sunday June 23, 2013 @02:58PM (#5928885)
The aspect ratio is consistent - which, in my opinion, is what's important.
Re:Show HN: Test your website's responsiveness on Sunday June 23, 2013 @02:11PM (#5928654)
Good point. But if one wanted his site to look awesome on any screen size, he could use this tool to confirm that it does.
Re:Show HN: Test your website's responsiveness on Sunday June 23, 2013 @02:09PM (#5928641)
Well i based my hypothesis on the fact that sites such as google.com and yahoo.com which dont get rendered in Safari as a result of X-Frame-Options do get rendered in Chrome.
Re:Show HN: Test your website's responsiveness on Sunday June 23, 2013 @02:02PM (#5928606)
What do you know. I updated Firefox from Firefox itself and it only updated me to 12.
Re:Show HN: Test your website's responsiveness on Sunday June 23, 2013 @01:52PM (#5928552)
so i guess that would make my responsiveness checker unresponsive
Re:Show HN: Test your website's responsiveness on Sunday June 23, 2013 @01:44PM (#5928513)
That's a terrific reference. I wish I knew about it when I started developing
Re:Show HN: Test your website's responsiveness on Sunday June 23, 2013 @01:42PM (#5928502)
Didn't know that. That's pretty cool. However, its only for Firefox 15 which isn't available for mac yet..
Re:Show HN: Test your website's responsiveness on Sunday June 23, 2013 @01:39PM (#5928488)
Hmm. What's your website?
Re:Show HN: Test your website's responsiveness on Sunday June 23, 2013 @01:35PM (#5928461)
Maybe I should put a chart of common device aspect ratios..
Re:Show HN: Test your website's responsiveness on Sunday June 23, 2013 @01:34PM (#5928457)
Most Android aspect ratios are covered by the Apple devices I implemented. The Galaxy s4 for instance has a 16:9 aspect ratio, the same as the iPhone-5. However, more devices are to come! Feel free to contribute on Github (https://github.com/jak1192/MobileWebSimulator) :)
Re:Show HN: Test your website's responsiveness on Sunday June 23, 2013 @01:32PM (#5928450)
The point of the site is to simulate how websites would look on an iPhone. So being you're on an iPhone, use of the site would be counterintuitive :)
Re:Show HN: Test your website's responsiveness on Sunday June 23, 2013 @01:19PM (#5928385)
That's cool!
Re:Show HN: Test your website's responsiveness on Sunday June 23, 2013 @01:15PM (#5928359)
Interesting. It seems Chrome doesn't support X-Frame-Options
