I just tried to use the editor again; I was going to open jsfiddle but said why not. There is no way to create a new file. I remember a while back you could at least preload a bootstrap template. All in all, I still like the editor interface but there needs to be a few controls.

The only issue with a 'clunky ui' is the homepage but that might just be a side effect of bootstrap.

On that note, I'd also like to be able to load more frameworks than just BootStrap. Here are a few suggestions:

[3] http://blueprintcss.org/

+1 for Plunker.

It confused me at first, but if you want to start a new blank plunk go to "Editor" or click here: http://plunker.no.de/edit

The UI is kind of clunky.

You guys need to get off the internet and into the real world a bit more.

If I eat before bed I experience the same thing. Didn't start happening till my senior year in college. Freaky, but fun.

My over engineered solution. Catch the bad letter and replace it with a something else(i.e. another value mapped to a separate fontface). Translate the request on the server side being sure to reencode the page if it contains a 'bad letter'.

This is just my prediction. In a month's time I'll read back over my comments and, hopefully, I'll see this, check, and have an answer.

From the looks of it, the hivemind has already taken over.

In 1 month the price will be back to, or above, the original IPO.

This guy is too entertaining.

Looks like someone just found Camus.

I've been using Foundation and really like it. This is just one more reason to stick with it.

Nope, you're experience mirrors those of mine. It's hard to convert redditors; in part due to neglecting the self-serve platform. With that said, $60 to bring in a brand new customer isn't that bad.

Maybe it would be cheaper to hook up with a subreddit mod and run a give-a-way. $50 worth of candy for a front page post sounds like a better value :D

Have you tried targeted ads on reddit? Maybe for something like /r/snackexchange? I just spent $30 on a test ad, if you're interested I can share the traffic stats with you.

Something like the Dunning–Kruger effect applied to ethics?

Is there a way this can take place entirely server side?

Instead of faxing have you guys thought about OCR via a webcam/mobile phone/scanner?

I might have read your comment wrong but are you

a) comparing child pornography to political criticism

b) saying that it "play[s] an important role within our society".

Can you elaborate?

This is false.

Bio-truths on HN. Why is this not suprising in the least?

I've been playing with a few ways to abuse the browser. You /might/ be able to hide the font in an image file[1] so that it's harder to see. I have a few more tricks but can't show them at this moment.

This would be horrible for any one using screen readers. You could use something like longdesc but then you've ruined your obfusciation. Really not something one should apply in production.

The only saving grace for this might be in internal sites where you want to display information to the user but do not want that user copy/pasting sensitive information into emails/chat/ect.

That was another thing I thought about. There are so many possible characters that you do not have to map them to regular ascii, but I wanted to make the demo easy to understand.

Sorry, from the comments it's apperent that this was a horrible demo.

Ideally you would store the original in an unciphered format and, say, GoogleBot hits your site you just serve it that unciphered one. If it is not a spider you can serve them the jumbled one.

As for lyric sites, they don't A) want people stealing content, B) have strict rules when publishing lyrics.

Try to copy and paste the "ciphered" text into a text editor and see what you get. You can take it a step farther and generate font files on the fly to make it even harder to predict the sequence; you can even map the harder to see unicode characters. By no means is it secure, but I thought it cute.

I wonder how often these types of collisions auctually occur.

With an IP address(I doubt most people surf with TOR all the time), system time(Comparing time-zone data), language settings, and the myriad of other data given away a person can get ~close enough~. Even then, if you don't want to use the app don't allow it to send/recieve GeoData easy enough.
