i had the same issue --- hit refresh a couple of times and i went through

scope··on Nexus 6
off topic (i think)

for a "phone" that has 493ppi, you expect the site introducing the phone to be retina ready (couple of images and the favicon)

scope··on Firefox 33
> I'm not sure if there are any performance issues

I also use Firefox on a MacBook Pro(2014), I don't know if this existed before or not but, under battery > Apps using significant enery, Firefox is one of em', opening the same exact tabs on Safari doesn't show safari on the list

is this because apps that come with Apple are not included in the list or is Safari better at Energy consumption?

quick heads up, on http://bradba.in under Technical skills > Web Frameworks you've put Node --- Node is NOT a framework it's a platform
scope··on Why don't you use Bootstrap?
what's remarkable for me is that this post got 50+ points for something that clearly misinterprets BS ;)
scope··on Microsoft on GitHub
has anyone noticed the 'openness blog' where there's a custom scroll bar where if you want to scroll you have to DRAG it --- hey maybe it's because am using Firefox, maybe i should try it on IE :)

edit: maybe this will get me more down-votes --- has anyone noticed how on the 'About Openness' menu, something pops up on hover but you can't click it --- PS: to notice this wonderful effect you have to use Firefox 31

yeah, am pretty sure this site is not just for show ;)

also the copyright year is 2013 - maybe they are serious after all

scope··on Show HN: Unioncy – Keep an automated record of your things
I opened the site using my iPhone, not responsive at all --- I'll give it a go once am on my PC (hold your horses people, I run Linux on it)
scope··on Ask HN: What projects are you working on?
hey, am just wondering when you say 'first android app', have you made other apps for another os (iOS obviously) or this is your first app?

am intrested in knowing the "context switch" on app development, from iOS to android and vice versa

I feed it the JSON and it does the calculations automatically - it's nice I get to have a 30 day streak :)

scope··on Microsoft Paying Bloggers to Write about Internet Explorer
LMAO!!!

I work at a bank (network and maintainace department) I see the case on MOST PC's where a user prefers either Firefox or Google Chrome over IE, it's NOT because the user is aware of the performance issues but they generally assume/gossip that other browsers JUST work better...

and they do :)

don't know if am mistaken or not but I think I read somewhere that V8 got beaten by native
scope··on Atom Is Now Open Source
yep i can and i did, still, I'll like it far more if it `just works` without me having to open the terminal and install node, npm, make link of nodejs...
scope··on Atom Is Now Open Source
it would a LOT be better if there's a deb package available, you have to do a lot of tweaking to make node work as `node`, since it's named `nodejs` to avoid package name conflict in Linux

now that it's open sourced, am sure it'll take like a second for someone to release the deb package

it's NOT ready (as far as i can tell), so PLEASE stop with the misleading title!!!

scope··on IE11 gains the most market share, and Chrome finally passes Firefox
a lot of April prank going around...

though this won't "work" on HN, Microsoft gaining on WEB market, give us a break!

scope··on Facebook buys Ubuntu producation company Canonical for 3 Billion
you almost had me :)

GREAT title!

scope··on Transport for London – New responsive website
doesn't disappoint on the title 'responsive', great!

off topic: this is the FIRST site I've seen that used Samsung mobile image to show the responsiveness of the page instead of an iPhone or an iPad

edit: the favicon is not right, when the page is not in focus, you'll see pieces of the white-background left (i have OCD)

scope··on Ask HN: Is it me or ...?
you're NORMAL by my books

at least you lasted a year, i have quit TWO jobs (well paying i might add) - one in one day, the other in a week.

so, i got a job where i don't have to code shit [network and maintenance]

i stay in the coding scene [which i LOVE] by doing side projects and doing my OWN and OPEN projects [nothing beats the feeling of getting a PR on GitHub]

scope··on 2048 in sed
thanks!

edit: you broke it :(

scope··on 2048 in sed
no score too! :(

how am i suppose to know when i break my own record [i.e. 3012 - never got passed 512 on the tiles]

scope··on Ask HN: How do you handle your music collection?
i tried to install (version 4.9) it on my machine (Ubuntu 13.10) and i got 'The package is of bad quality', is it still maintained?
scope··on Ask HN: How do you handle your music collection?
i use rhythmbox; neat, easy to use and familiar [since it's inspired by Apple iTunes]

quality: if you want to take your music to the next level, i recommend getting a good set of headphones AND using flac format instead of mp3
