melle··on Enabling HTTP/2 for Dropbox web services: experiences and observations
The thing I find odd is the bugs in Chromium. Why would google drop support for spdy if their http2 implementation contains such (noticable?) bugs?
melle··on Facebook relies on editors' judgment for trending news feed, documents show
I suspect this doesn't only happen in the trending news feed. From my own experience: I shared an article by Douglas Roushkof (https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/feb/12/digital-c...) and several of my friends weren't able to see it, even after they opened my timeline.

melle··on Echo – Golang micro web framework
Looking at https://github.com/gin-gonic/go-http-routing-benchmark/blob/...

All echo benches have been commented out, last change about a year ago.

Tests do not use echo's fasthttp engine.

melle··on Echo – Golang micro web framework
Do you have any experience with gin?

If so, why do you prefer echo over gin?

Thanks

melle··on Echo – Golang micro web framework
I'm not sure this is the case, at least not according to the benchmarks in the gin-gonic/gin repo.

This framework was submitted to HN before:https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9296524

In that discussion the author of gin mentions gin has a zero allocation router as well https://github.com/gin-gonic/gin/issues/249

On mobile right now, will look at the gin/echo benchmarks later (especially if the gin benchmarks compare the fasthttp engine of echo)

To those with suggestions related to e.g. security pratices, step up and contribute!

melle··on Relax – A CMS on Top of React and Node.js
Completely off-topic, but I really like the logo. Who made it?
melle··on How MembershipReboot stores passwords (2014)
How is this different from bcrypt?
melle··on Go 1.5 Beta
From the changelog: > Builds in Go 1.5 will be slower by a factor of about two. The automatic translation of the compiler and linker from C to Go resulted in unidiomatic Go code that performs poorly compared to well-written Go. Analysis tools and refactoring helped to improve the code, but much remains to be done. Further profiling and optimization will continue in Go 1.6 and future releases.

This seems quite a drastic change. I thought compilation speed was one of the pilars of go. In that light, why did they decide to release this anyway?

melle··on How side projects saved our startup
This is some great advice, nice post!

Too bad the article only focuses on the success stories. I for one would be really interested to know how many failed/abandoned side projects they created and how they relate to the successful ones.

melle··on Poll: How to display a comment timeline
In this example text balloons are more clear for me. The background of the balloon seems to 'tie' the comment to the user, and it's easier to spot the end of a comment. In the minimal chrome example you need a line to separate comments which is less distinctive, i guess this makes it harder for me to notice
melle··on ColorRun – Simple browser game about colors
Fun game, i like it!

Minor: In the gameover pop-up the social buttons only show the facebook logo, though the links point to fb/twitter/plus
