Re:Vue HN 2.0 on Sunday May 07, 2017 @03:42PM (#14287196)
I've been using the original Vue HN (https://vue-hn.now.sh/top) for months, never even turn on the original HN (unless I need to post a comment, like now).
This is really old news, and actually, the text in the link was pretty much inspired by the one from Huffington Post from 2015 - http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/02/09/your-samsung-tv-is-...
Next task (upping the skill level): Remove jQuery as a dependancy.
To be more precise, on macOS it's using system fonts (`-apple-system` - not necessarily San Francisco if set otherwise or on older versions of the OS).
Re:Sublime Text 3 marked as recommended build on Tuesday May 31, 2016 @02:20AM (#11804976)
I think it's fair enough to say that people should be using beta/dev builds, I've been using Sublime 3 for years (before switching to Atom a year ago) and there were just a handful of broken builds.

That said, as much as I like the quality of the app, I wouldn't hold my breath for version 4.

I think it'll be the same when StackOverflow introduced snippers and everyone thought JSFiddle would fade away because of it... In reality there was zero impact on the traffic from SO.

I'm pretty sure the same will be for Imgur.

Done this a year before they've done theirs – https://github.com/oskarkrawczyk/tour.js (never got traction unfortunately, probably because it's MooTools-based and 2012 was the year when everyone who used MooTools started dropping it in favor of jQ).
Re:Show HN: Modern Hacker News with custom userstyles on Tuesday November 10, 2015 @04:49PM (#10542821)
Thanks for the heads up, wasn't even aware I'm missing elements due to the low karma.

Getting the styling done right here, is not that easy, as you can imagine the oldschool HTML doesn't really help. I was trying not to do multiple scopes for different pages in Stylish, but seems like I have to do CSS scoping to get rid of that .rank

Interesting indeed. I was just thinking about this the other day before deciding on putting together the userstyle. I was wondering weather the current HN backend is as fast as it can be, I'm sure there are dozens of developers that would like to rewrite it for free.

Thanks! I'm actually planning on adding a dark theme, colors based on my other project, the Honukai colors for iTerm – https://github.com/oskarkrawczyk/honukai-iterm
Well, not like it's a surprise, they've A/B tested it, saw increase in CTR, implemented.
Re:SQL Fiddle on Thursday October 10, 2013 @03:44AM (#6526216)
Cool but it can't handle traffic like JSFiddle (the originator of all code playgrounds) can.
Looks good! Added it to the official list of frameworks on JSFiddle.
