ClifReeder··on Awesome jQuery File Upload
I've also been using this on production for about eight months with no issues. Mutli-file upload works great too. Best part is all the callbacks options that are available: https://github.com/blueimp/jQuery-File-Upload/wiki/Options
ClifReeder··on Why I use DuckDuckGo and You Should Too
Perhaps I'm not using the search keywords functionality correctly, but in my experience, it works in one of two ways.

- Start typing 'wiki...' and it will autocomplete to http://en.wikipedia.org In order to search that site, I have to left arrow, space, and then type my query. I found that while usually helpful, the autocomplete was occasionally unpredictable/frustrating enough to me that it negated the times it was helpful. Having fine tuned control w/o autocomplete is preferable to me.

- Using the omnibox to enter 'wiki http codes', which will pull up google results. I then have to tab or otherwise use keyboard shortcuts to select the first link, all of which are a worse user experience than the bang syntax to me.

ClifReeder··on Why I use DuckDuckGo and You Should Too
Sorry, I should have been clearer. I do use DuckDuckGo via the omnibar, which would be necessary for any of the efficiency gains I refer to.
ClifReeder··on Why I use DuckDuckGo and You Should Too
If you are directly going to google.com/duckduckgo.com, you are correct. You get the zero click benefit by using DDG as the default search in Chrome or Firefox.

Doh, definitely a mistake. Fixed!
ClifReeder··on Ask HN: What charts javascript library to use?
Agreed, I've been using it for a project and have been very happy so far. Lots of options, and looks great. I've been using the GoogleVisualr library for Rails, so writing them in Ruby is nice too.
ClifReeder··on Ask HN: Who's Hiring?
You don't have an email in your profile, but I do have some questions. Any other way to contact you?
