Here's a little screen capture of what Webflow looks like in Firefox https://cl.ly/3J0c2v2Y093O — the scrollbar causes quite a few issues with layout, but also we have to take into account the fact it's also a different width, which doesn't play nicely with drag 'n drop.

Hey there, Webflow CTO here. We take performance seriously here so I'm secretly in glee to see users notice this. It's a similar stack we use for Webflow hosting: https://webflow.com/hosting

A few things on this page that make this site fast:

- Responsive Images created for you as your build your site (https://webflow.com/feature/responsive-images)

- HTTP2 wherever possible

- Fastly for initial HTML document for sub 10ms TTFB, depending on your location - their instant purge makes it possible for our users to see their updated sites super quickly

- AWS Cloudfront for static, scripts, and media assets

WF founder chiming in here ... the beauty of giving designers the ability to create CSS classes, build with the box model, and think about HTML/CSS concepts is so they can leverage the power of the browser to help them design a production ready, responsive website. There may be designers that are allergic, but there are also many that embrace it.

Learnboost. They were responsible for creating some of the most popular node.js packages back in the day. But from what I recall, TJ was the most prolific developer there.

Webflow CTO chiming in here - Weebly is definitely great for getting something up and running. But if you have specific design needs, then Webflow may be a better fit for you.

Approaching my graduation from UCSD's CS program back in '08, I couldn't wait to move from SD to SF. Several reasons but the main ones were: 1) hard to find driven people that wanted to make an impact in their field 2) tech scene was heavily dominated by biotech and Qualcomm 3) missing intellectually curious people.

I hope it turns around soon however, since it's a beautiful place to live.

This has be a real blind spot in the node community since inception. It's great to see a company focused on delivering a node runtime that is instrumented in a way that provides large node deployments with the necessary metrics/insights needed for node at scale.

Would be great if they posted some more info on whether or not their instrumentation comes with a cost to performance. Looks like you can enable/disable profiling at runtime without restarting too, which is huge!

> Node.js applications can be debugged and profiled live, without the need to restart, and therefore potentially miss critical state that led to the fault.

Would love some throughput and other performance numbers!

What bothers me most about this article is that it chooses to fixate on the "new" tech industry where 20-hour days, and complete dedication to your job are common. However, why does the author not mention the finance industry? Hundred hour weeks have always been the norm, and new mothers are encouraged to come back to work as soon as possible or risk missing their next promotion. Some would argue that finance is even more male-dominated than tech, and because of this it makes working at a big bank/fund even more difficult for parents.

Same is true of healthcare, and big law. There are plenty of industries that suffer from unfriendly family workplaces, not just the tech industry. I'd love to read an article that attempts to compare how family friendly different industries are for parents, but unfortunately only a large, costly survey can provide the non-subjective data readers can appreciate.

Debatable, but our hope is that $3000 for a uncommon but easy to remember portmanteau word would drive brand identity better than some random name, like "incuby"[1]

Elated to see Glenn & team grow this amazing and much needed community to 17,000+. I definitely see this filling an important gap in our society for years to come.

Very cool! But unfortunately the reality is most startups never capture the first 6 numbers of credit cards if they are using a payment gateway (stripe, recurly, etc). Do you have ideas on how we can access the BIN without compromising security if we're using said services?
