Yeah my experience with GoDaddy was terrible too. I switched to 1and1 about 4 years ago. I have been very happy with its domain handling. I don't always use them for hosting, but I haven't found anyone better for domains.

This might help you out: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/33974

joshu, you could give the greasemonkey script "HN OnePage" a try. http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/30512 It may not be quite what you are looking for, but it will let you easily view the comments/article for any given submission. There are some other good greasemonkey scripts out there as well, such as HN Splitview, that address this issue.

May I suggest Peoplesoft? I think it is a worthwile read.

I like your syntax coloring, what editor/color scheme?

As we serve local, county, and state governments using a subscription model, we don't run into the problem of random visitors with noscript enabled when viewing the site, but I can see how that would affect other sites.

As a side note, you can tie the CDN you create with Google App Engine to a domain, i.e. cdn.yoursite.com grabs from the App engine CDN.

I have been using Google App Engine as a CDN to serve up images and some core js, as well as using Google Ajax Library to serve up MooTools for about 5 or 6 months now. It has worked out really really well. In our case, we needed to serve our clients with our in house servers running ESRI's ArcGIS server. Splitting the load between Google and our Arc servers cut the load time in half for some cases.

I really enjoyed it. I also think this would be a lot of fun if offered through the arcade section of the 360 or the like. Would sound great trough the surround sound.

It looks like the Berkshires region of Massachusetts has been doing this for a while too. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkshares

This was done really well. It kind of reminds me of the presentation done with the PS3 game Little Big Planet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uToBarLr_U

Charles timing was a bit better than the Sony presentation.

After seeing it referenced a lot on HN, I've also been really interested in learning Erlang.

What projects have you fellow hackers used/are using Erlang for? Are you glad you did?

Here you go, made a greasemonkey script to take care of it. http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/33974

Apple's behavior is becoming increasingly sketchy when it comes to approving apps. This is troublesome as I am currently working on a app I hope to get on the store. I'm curious to see how much longer hackers put up with this before there is a total backlash from developers. It is certainly making me rethink about creating apps for their devices.

I agree, it looks more like an actual product, more polished and professional. People need to lighten up a little bit. Rock Star aside, I think the site looks pretty nice.

Could you clarify what you mean?

Fixed the comments panel bug. The comments panel should load correctly for each article, even after clicking through "More".

It appears that when there is an article listed with 2 separate links in the title, it then doesn't auto populate the comments panel correctly. Clicking on the comments link for the comments you wish to read works properly still.

Ill get it fixed right away.

Thank you dandelany :)

I think I fixed the .org problem. I will take a look at your viewport suggestion soon too.

I'll look into what's required to make that work.

hu, I'm not really sure why it wouldn't work. As far as external resources, it pulls jQuery off of the Google AJAX Library CDN. Maybe something is blocking it from getting the jQuery script?

Did you edit the screen size preference in the code? Maybe an extra character got tacked in there or forgotten.

HN community, any ideas?

Yeah, I noticed that after click on the "More" link and browsing the second page of articles, that I ran into some problems with the comments bar. Sometimes it takes clicking on the comments link for the article. I will look into fixing this.

Good Suggestion. I could create a feature that would hide the news panel when you click on an article link, maybe turn it to a thin orange vertical bar running along the left side? Maybe a toggle preference feature, such as clicking comments above the article expands comments but collapse the article? Definitely things I could work in as user preference choices.

Make it a Dew

MooTools is a fantastic library, with very solid motion tweening and decent documentation/examples. jQuery is also a very solid library.
