Don't like the email in cleartext in the html, considering that all these pages are public, could you fix that?

#23Please don't send my password in plain text via email
Also: .cat is a valid TLD for email validation. I got:
"There were problems with the following fields:
* Email should look like an email address."

#24if i search for a query such as 'erlang', can you explain how you do the search - is it by order entered in the database, by rate, etc?
also, nice app!
Re: HN Hackers: Add Yourself
#25Great idea! The company I work at right now is constantly looking for outside developers/freelancers for some small projects and I have often found my self asking how can I get in touch with people on HN for these gigs.
Brilliant idea and I hope to be reaching out to some hackers in the NYC area soon.

#26Please add a link to this thread on the site.
I entered the full HN user url in the field and it didn't complain.

#27Bug report: there's a minimum login length of 4 chars, but many HN usernames are shorter than that. It seems to make sense to let people use their HN usernames here. I also find it curious that you seem to have decided we'll all work for $100/hour. I will, but I suspect there are some people on that list who won't.
It actually says "$100/hr+", which I guess can be taken to mean "from $100/h and up". That's not how I would interpret it, but then again I lean quite heavily towards literalism with things like these.
It could also mean $100 for an hour or more of work.

#28I'm already getting spammed by someone clearly targeting this demographic (not going to name them because I don't want to give them more eyeballs). I don't feel comfortable with you having scraped this data... I didn't mind entering data when it was a hard to find spreadsheet, but now my email is easily discoverable on this website and I'm annoyed.

#29I agree that the show email link should be nixed, and you should use mailto links for the emails if you are going to show emails. I personally would prefer it if you offered a contact form that emailed me via the site (behind a captcha of course).
Why did you have me pick a user name if it's never shown publicly on the site and I log in using my email address?

Yeah, that's seriously uncool. At minimum they should be obfuscated or otherwise hidden from scrapers.
