joakin··on Proof of work - an unobtrusive alternative to captchas
Messing around with your clients performance doesnt seem like a nice alternative to a captcha for me...

There is plenty of people with bloated windows machines that even using a modern browser struggle to perform properly, I dont think overloading them with extra work would help making their experience easy and smooth.

Just my 2 cents.

joakin··on Data Structure Visualization
I would have loved this the first/second year of my CS degree...

Nice work

joakin··on Great jquery tutorial
Really nice resource. A neat guide that I'm going to handle to my java partners.

joakin··on Show HN: Garden Madness, a flowery HTML5 game
Its nice, some sounds would be really cool, for instance a background music, a click sound and a boom sound for the chain combos :)

Nice work!

joakin··on Ask HN: What do you develop with?
Any performance complaints?
joakin··on Git Cheatsheet (Visualization)
Please, replace courier and leave monospaced, I have my own preferences on fonts, and Im sure everybody else does too.

joakin··on Bootstrapped. 10 Months. Learned Rails. Finally Launched. Feedback Please?
I forgot to ask, did you design it? if not, what method did you use to get that good result?
joakin··on Bootstrapped. 10 Months. Learned Rails. Finally Launched. Feedback Please?
Really nice design.

Not that it matters but your index is an imdex.html :)

joakin··on Why Greplin is my favorite new startup
Please can anybody explain to me why gmail search is that horrible? In each greplin article somebody throws shit at it and I can't see what's so bad about it.

I think it's very useful, the only thing I miss is sort options.

joakin··on Show HN: made a html5 game, polished it many many times
Shouldnt this load on the iPad ? It stops at 25% of the loading
joakin··on Microsoft breaks own world record for IE nonsense
In the meanwhile, while all the firefox, chrome, safari and opera users are enjoying a fast and beautiful web, the poor ie6, ie7, and ie8 users enjoy a slow, horrible and painful experience without knowing that there is more besides IE and making developers life and web evolution worse and slower.
joakin··on Show HN: Readable-HN Chrome extension
I prefer the flexibility of Stylebot (on Chrome, or Stylish in firefox).

Right now the style I have applied is this one: http://stylebot.me/styles/223

I would like to do something with the comments tree, but since they are not nested but padded its not possible to show a hierarchy on them :S

It would be nice to see other peoples styles to take ideas :D

joakin··on Sophisticated Sorting in JavaScript
Not sophisticated but informative. Nice article and examples.
joakin··on Google +1 Button Discovered
I only see a frame with this message inside:

  Google 
  Error
   
  Server Error
  
  The service you requested is not available at this time.
  Service error -27.
Thats the way they took it down? :s
joakin··on Hiring Developers: You're Doing It Wrong
Bit offtopic but that CSS made reading the article a complete pleasure. With the mixture of nice readability and interesting content this post turns out as a really good essay.
joakin··on Amazon Cloud Drive Is Not Dropbox
I see the difference between Dropbox and Amazon terms, but I cant avoid asking myself If legally they are just the same.
joakin··on Amazon Cloud Drive Is Not Dropbox
What the hell, never knew about this:

  Consent to Access Your Files 
  BY UTILIZING THE SITE, CONTENT, FILES AND/OR SERVICES, 
  YOU CONSENT TO ALLOW DROPBOX TO ACCESS YOUR COMPUTER 
  TO ACCESS ANY FILES THAT ARE PLACED IN THE 'MY DROPBOX',
  'DROPBOX' FOLDERS, AND/OR ANY OTHER FOLDER WHICH YOU
  CHOOSE TO LINK TO DROPBOX.
  
Is this intended for the program to access the files and send them to the server? Or does this mean the bad thing, that nothing is really private?
joakin··on Surviving a traffic surge: Three techniques to scale your site fast
Nice post. It would be nice to read a comparative between apache and nginx on these cases.
joakin··on Photo Particles - explode your pictures
I cant get it to work on Windows XP (neither chrome 10 nor FF4).

I guess webgl is not available to this platform, I'll try at home with windows 7.

joakin··on Firefox 4 is here
Ive been looking into the addons and both of them have the same update date, whats the difference? they look the same to me (I havent installed both of them since vimperator works well :P )
joakin··on Back to the front of the pack: Ars reviews Firefox 4
Whenever somebody says that they love something about firefox 4 are you going to reply like that?

Congrats on chrome, but berfore they did it there already was tab mix plus and faviconize extensions which had this concept.

Yeah, everybody copies the good stuff, that's what good about competition. Don't be mean and ironic with useless information on other people's positive comments.

Both are great software, there is no need to fight over and be always looking for the fight

joakin··on Firefox 4 is here
Please help and advice your friends and family to update :)

Lets help mozilla!

joakin··on [Follow-up Results] Your favourite text editor/IDE?
Why isnt the data sorted from most voted to less? Its a big mess to read graphs like that...
joakin··on Save IE6
I just hope that nobody takes this seriously...
joakin··on Adobe releases Flash to HTML5 converter
Having some Chrome about:flags turned on this hanged my machine... Lesson learned!
joakin··on Insane HTML5 take on Google's interface
Oh god it just downloaded 16 .mov files with no reason! What the hell is that...
joakin··on Cloud9 IDE - Your code anytime, anywhere
Going to http://cloud9ide.com/contact.html gives the google maps api key warning, you should fix that.

By the way, beautiful design in both page and product. Really really awesome.

joakin··on How to build your own "Watson Jr." in your basement
I hate when I enter a page Im interested in that makes an ajax call whenever I click something, since I read long texts clicking and selecting text.

Why man? Why? If you want to track clicks on links with javascript, dont trigger the ajax call when I do click in :not(a) ... -_-'

joakin··on The real HTML5 boilerplate
Dont take that rant too serious, you did amazing work gathering all the stuff for the template, and i bet that for many people has been really useful.

I find painless to delete some stuff I dont want, better than start adding all the stuff I do, and I learnt some stuff from the commented version.

Thanks for the "boilerplate", I love it
