I'm not much of a programmer, but it's great to know about this guy. The diversity link someone posted here [0] is inspiring.

Off topic question about Aphyr's website: the stylesheet is linked to only as `<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/css" />` How and why does this work?

Here's a related and interesting article [1] titled 'Unraveling Google’s Product Strategy' from the author of a post that is linked to on the HN front page (Ode to Little Data)[2].

The author in this related article is really showing the total commitment to ads by google. I find it very unsettling.

i've gotten useful info via !yt comments, as well as had meaningful interactions.

the entire push to "use my real name" vis a vis my gmail account instead of my historical youtube account name, of which this new comments action is a part, bothers me.

also, it smells of an attempt out of desperation to beef up content on g+.
