peterchon··on Show HN: Mimic – class-fied inline CSS
There's nothing stopping you from using inline-styles. It's another approach.

Perhaps, which is why I appreciate everyone's feedback.

It does say: "more to come" maybe you'll get more laughs.

Hey sorry that you were stuck with a framework. It's not a framework, it's meant to be a quick way to add styles without having to make more css classes.
peterchon··on Show HN: Mimic – class-fied inline CSS
Hey, thanks for taking a look. I'm sorry that it wasn't a parody. It's something that's helped me make quick small style changes without having to make more css classes.
peterchon··on Show HN: Mimic – class-fied inline CSS
Thanks for taking a look. I appreciate everyone's feedback. I understand that it looks redundant and unorthodox, but this way of writing css does help me when I need to add a quick style fix here and there without having to change my main style sheet.

Thanks for taking a look. Could you share why you feel that way?
peterchon··on Show HN: Mimic – class-fied inline CSS
Thanks for taking a look, I appreciate everyone's opinion on things. Could you share why you think this way?
peterchon··on Show HN: Mimic – class-fied inline CSS
I appreciate you taking a look, thanks!

Hi, thanks for looking. You don't have to do anything that you don't want to do.
peterchon··on Show HN: Mimic – class-fied inline CSS
Well, the year isn't over yet :P
peterchon··on Show HN: Mimic – class-fied inline CSS
Hi thanks for looking. Could you elaborate on your last statement?
peterchon··on Show HN: Mimic – class-fied inline CSS
Hi, thanks for taking a look.

I'm not trying to be bootstrap. I wanted a way for users to add css without using an inline-css. As for psudo selectors, it's still easy: .do-this-on-hover:hover { ... }

Interesting - I'll take a look.

I appreciate your kind words. It's always tough to put things out there for scrutiny.

Hi, I'm sorry that I gave you such stress - it wasn't my intention. It would be helpful if you could explain why it caused you such angst.

Hi, thanks for taking a look.

I don't think it's a "better" way, I wanted to explore another way of adding quick styles without having to come up with a class name.

Hi, thanks for taking a look. Could you tell me why this won't work without JS?

My motivation to write this is because I always have to go back and make quick margin/padding/etc changes and I hated trying to come up with more class names.

As mentioned, this isn't a framework. It was a way for me to add styles when writing styles to custom directives.

Thanks for taking a look. As mentioned, it's not a framework - it's a way for me to add simple styling without having to find/add/replace existing class. It may not seem useful to you as a complete solution like bootstrap - but when writing custom directives, it really helped me.

You should really include a non-zipped js as well.

I gave my kids an ipad 2 and it's been through 3 years of hell, but it still works like a champ.
peterchon··on Ask HN: Is it really that bad to switch jobs often?
I disagree - I think everyone has a different needs, I would say those ones you perceive as "emotional, impatient, and poor team player" are the most loyal champions of the company and really gave it their all.
peterchon··on Ask HN: Is it really that bad to switch jobs often?
I disagree, isn't it better to go to another company that might provide challenge/pay rather then looking for things to do (especially on that company's dime?)
peterchon··on Harvard Accused of Bias Against Asian-Americans
What would be interesting to see if we replace all applicant's informations were anonymous and everyone got reviewed strictly based on merits.
peterchon··on Ask HN: Why did you Not hire that candidate?
I think that's interesting. I understand that you're looking for someone with basic/foundational knowledge - but can you really judge them on not knowing (or be able to explain) a specific function?

Wouldn't it be better to ask a problem and see how the person might solve the problem?

peterchon··on Ask HN: Why did you Not hire that candidate?
Thank you for the thoughtful response!
peterchon··on Ask HN: JavaScript developer – what do I need to know?
It's really weird to me trying to do a lot of data handling on the front-end side rather than using server-side.
peterchon··on Ask HN: JavaScript developer – what do I need to know?
yes. yes it does.
peterchon··on Ask HN: JavaScript developer – what do I need to know?
I have, but I'm having hard time creating projects that uses (or rather justify using) the higher-level JS programming paradigm.
