from the self-post dept.

There was a blog post here a few weeks ago about the passing of a man who worked on Developer Tools at Mozilla/Firefox. I would like to read it again and share it with a friend. I've searched, but come up empty handed. IIRC he worked remotely, and was disabled. Do you remember the source? Thanks!

I can't imagine I would ever use this, as a developer or as an e-commerce customer. But it is certainly a well-executed, fun exercise... Folks on CodePen.io would go bananas over it.

kittyroulette.com + kittehroulette.com

Chat roulette for cat videos... Next Kitty!

Not currently live... No revenue... launched it on April 1, 2010 when news about ChatRoulette was all over the place. It went pretty viral and enjoyed a nice long tail of traffic. Took it down recently to switch hosts, and never finished...

I also have the following domains: keyboard.cat, instakitty.com, instapuppy.com, kittyleaks.com, okaykitty.com, emojikit.com, bananaphone.me, srsbiz.co

Re:Dear GitHub: Please let us sort our projects on Thursday April 10, 2014 @12:31PM (#7567594)

In the last paragraph OP writes "I implore you to allow us to sort our own repos. I know that there are mixed feelings about Windows 8's tile layout for their start menu, but I think that's the sort of thing that we need for project sorting."

Just like they've been grouping projects on their explore pages -- https://github.com/explore -- I would love to see this functionality availble to users to sort repos on their own profile pages as well.

Anyone remember when OMGPOP was iminlikewithyou.com before they made the pivot to social games? 2007ish, if I recall correctly...

Re:How it feels when everyone you know gets laid off on Tuesday March 20, 2012 @09:22PM (#3732613)

That actually sounds nice when compared to one company I worked for. They laid off our entire development team via an email. Adding injury to insult, nobody has received their final paycheck.

Re:Ask HN: Are image maps a thing of the past in modern/Web 2.0 design? on Wednesday January 19, 2011 @01:16AM (#2118877)

It's been several years since I've created a true image map. However, I've approximated the technique more than once by placing various, absolutely-positioned elements over an image. I favor this technique because it does not involve opening a new browser tab to look up the correct children and attributes of the map element.
