Re:DuckDuckGo Lite on Friday January 17, 2020 @05:00PM (#22079916)
Reviewing the frontend code, a couple of things stand out.

1) The HTML/CSS code isn't minified.

2) The PNG images can be compressed further (lossless) for extra savings.

3) CSS classes/ids could be further shortened in post-processing.

Re:Fight back against Google AMP (2018) on Wednesday December 04, 2019 @01:02PM (#21704886)
After AMP was introduced, I converted to DDG (DuckDuckGo) and after taking some time getting used to it and personalizing it’s settings, I haven’t gone back to Google.
Re:Ask HN: What are you thankful for? on Friday November 29, 2019 @02:04AM (#21662643)
I’m thankful to come to work every day and appreciate my coworkers and those around me. I feel like without those smart and good folks life would be a lot more difficult.

Come on npm, no one blindly does "npm install kik" expecting to install a messenger client.
Re:Ask HN: Anyone in NYC area want to hack? on Tuesday September 15, 2015 @02:57AM (#10219332)
Assuming you are serious and not here to troll, I would suggest checking out Founder Dating (http://founderdating.com). I don't have any affiliations with the company though I am a member and it's a very active community and the website helps connect people together to build something together.

Why though? There are alternatives.
Re:Making Netflix.com Faster on Wednesday August 05, 2015 @10:56PM (#10014304)
I agree with your points but at the same time their UI is now so easy to navigate that my not so tech savvy 70 year old dad can use Netflix without ever calling me and asking me any questions. So my guess is, Netflix is trying to be more like a preprogrammed TiVo with lots of content than trying to appeal to the super users that may want those features.

Great job on the framework! It's nice to see a framework that pushes JS Devs into using new ES6+ conventions.
Re:Poll: Did you “drop Dropbox”? on Wednesday October 01, 2014 @01:41PM (#8396287)
My only concern with using Google Drive is worrying about it's future. Who knows if it will get axed like Google Reader did. At least with using DropBox or other alternatives you know what the companies MVP is.
