I also agree. First time I came across their product it wasn't via HN and at first I just assumed they were one of the old-timers who were trying to be quirky with "cool" icons. Otherwise, good job on the product!
What do you mean by 'old-timers'?

#221. You win. This contribution make me think there needs to be an open source awards show. Your "best contribution to a web platform in 2011" nomination is in the bag. 2. PG should be calling you with an invitation to the next YC class, not for this, but for everything you guys have accomplished in the last year.
BTW, nirvana: at the risk of down-votes here I wanted to draw your attention to this comment I made on an older thread which you might not have noticed: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2958684

Agree with both points, especially the second. Their product and work feels like a great fit for YC. BTW, nirvana: at the risk of down-votes here I wanted to draw your attention to this comment I made on an older thread which you might not have noticed: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2958684

EDIT: I agree with amirhhz. Nirvana, if you have a blog or newsletter, please let me know. The only info I found from HN & googling you is twitter @NirvanaCore, which I am looking forward it, but I don't want to just know about NirvanaCore from you. I want to read and know about you and your thoughts.

#27I know I'm getting to be a broken record, but two different attempts at an SSH server, neither of which work? Every other thing on this list is a reimplementation of something in Python's standard library or Twisted. I mean, yes, that's a lot of code to write, and I'm impressed, but this just feels like yet more reinvention of the wheel.

#30James and Peteris are two of the most amazing devs I've seen in a long time. They ship and ship and ship and ship. The first version of StackVM (Browserling's underlying technology) was written in Haskell. They switched to Node close to two years ago if I'm not mistaken. I've gotten an early look at Testling, their cross browser testing web testing tools, and they're easily a year or two ahead of anyone else on the m…
They are amazing and Browserling is very handy, but they really need to hire a designer. A lot of their customers are going to be designers, there is no reason to have such a dated look.
