Love the background, just don't zoom out too much lol

Seems the database has vanished too

Clicking back after visiting a link clears the search. Should keep it as a query parameter.

Yes, because you are not hitting a valid route, hence not found.

For the clearfix can't you just use `clear:right` or `clear:both`? Also for inline-block you can also use the ie7 hack `display: inline-block;*display: inline;zoom: 1;`. Nice tutorial though.

There is a comment on my blog from a developer from MLB.com for anyone who is interested:

"Hi -

Engineer from mlb.com here. It appears this goes a bit deeper down the rabbit hole than meets the eye. Apparently there’s some code laying around in our tests run by a CI setup that randomly generates a tracking code to mock third party scripts (Google analytics, ad tracking, etc) instead of using our actual IDs as to not mess with our marketing guys’ numbers (we run a LOT of tests on CI).

The strange thing is that your IDs aren’t being pulled from your site, but have randomly been generated the same way many, many times and then been shipped out to our production server by mistake.

We can’t figure out why this is happening, but are looking into the build system and how it caches data. Luckily I read HN or we might have never caught this!"

I will when the dust settles.

Well mystery solved. I did a bit of sleuthing and noticed they have a scratch card at the bottom of the page. I had written a scratchpad plugin so I did a quick search for "wScratchPad" and sure enough it's there. They copied my sample code from http://wscratchpad.websanova.com, div's css and all and, you can even see the same `id` and `class` names.

I guess they copied a little too much.

Actually it's so you can track multiple domain with one code. I do this with subdomains so that I can see all my traffic as well as by individual subdomain.

Well actually it's two sets of codes I use which is custom script I put together to track two ids since I have a lot of subdomains. Not how Google gives it to you, which leads me to believe it was copy and pasted. Still not sure how that could happen though.

Well it's not THAT much of a spike, at least not so far. Although the number has increased significantly since the screen shot. Right now I'm just curious to see how long it will take them to notice.

I'm big on efficiency and DRY methodology both in coding and in processes. I enjoy thinking about solutions on how to make a team work better as much as I enjoy thinking about how to create an elegant solution.

I have lots of experience designing simple interfaces for complicated websites. I also believe in launching code often and breaking a problem down into small parts that can be delivered in days rather than months. There really is no reason why there can't at least be some soft internal or private launch that can get users playing with something.

I would like to work with a company or someone that has interesting problems to solve. I'm at my best when I'm working with people that enjoy discussing and trying to figure out elegant solutions and are self motivated to produce great results.
