Firing up the the Angular vs Ember debate again here. What's your take?
If we're picking this battle up, can everyone also argue a bit about the backend? I've been with Django for years, but I'm tempted to get back into Rails with how well it seems some of the JS frameworks are supported.
Unrelated: I'd really be interested in a follow-up story/post from you about the load you're experiencing. You just pushed a free [1] service in front of HN. How's the thing holding up? Both code/stack and allocated hardware? I guess it boils down to general curiosity on the one hand, the question of whether you can do this in a sustainable fashion on the other hand.
1: with donations
- the red buttons sometimes gets broken for me on Chrome (27) - the text on them is either invisible (log in on the main page) or messed up (one letter over another)
- text is rendered poorly on Chrome and Opera, probably a fault of the browser+font combination, maybe you can try to experiment with different fonts
- did you think about something different than read/unread model? it was something that was irking me about Google Reader or now with Netvibes - the point of RSS reader is not to read it all, at least not when you have thousands of items to read
So, many people have already had the time to switch from Google Reader. That means people have to be able to import feeds by OPML. Right now it seems like Google Reader is the only import option. There seems to be https, that is very nice. But theoldreader.com offers me this too. I need an import option before trying this out.
OPML is certainly coming, next week I hope :)
That said, sending unsolicited mails... you know the dilemma here.
Instead of calling it a donation, just call it the 'pro' version and add like a supporter badge on the header or let them do something silly like change the color of their header like on HN. Will probably get more funds that way and won't get cynical people to roll their eyes at questionable use of the word 'donation' whether it is or not.
Yeah, but we're all geeks here. It can't be that hard to splice together some custom CSS to make hacker news look like whatever you want. Let me just click view source and OH GOD PG FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY WHY ARE YOU USING NESTED TABLES IT'S 2013!!?!?!!111questionmark! Sorry, blacked out for a minute there.

Why does everything have to be described as "beautiful"? Yes, it looks nice. It's not fucking Beethoven, it's a website that appears to do a damn fine job of managing RSS feeds. Yet every damn day we see another HN front-page article about such-and-such a "beautiful" web-app. Edit: also, in this instance, a good chunk of the beautiful design seems to have been lifted from Google's style, from the icon style to the wa…
Beautiful is not just in the design, I've put a lot of effort into the mechanics of how things work, as well.

Superfish? I'm not even using superfish. Intercom is so users can contact me and pusher is so I can push you new entries without requiring a reload.
