I'm here to answer any questions folks might have, we're (the Firebase team) are really working hard to make this the best framework for Node.js and soon Go developers. We'd love your support and hope you give us a chance

I wish we wouldn't allow upvoting here of articles behind a paywall, this just wastes everyone's time. And yes someone might post a link to get around the paywall but this is hurting our news industry so I cant support this as a workaround.

I wouldn't recommend doing this nor saying I do this, but just FYI; The entire article loads way before the paywall.

This means two things:

1) If you disable JavaScript, the paywall goes away.

2) If you can quickly ctrl + a, ctrl + c the entire article you can read it on your IDE.

We need to tell economist.com developers to patch this.

Give the devs some credit - maybe they know about this and are not closing the loophole because they want it to stay open? The majority of readers won't take advantage of it and those who will likely wouldn't have paid anyway.

Gave them a call today. Who knew they had toll free international call lines. Quite impressive.

Newspapers are businesses.

Reporting costs money. Free news is generally paid for by the funder. Given the above, how is paywalled content hurting the news industry?

It's not hurting the news industry... maybe. It's polluting the HN newsfeed... maybe.

I for one won't subscribe to paywalled sites i only occasionally get links to on HN or other news aggregators just because they're linked here.

Funny enough, I am subscribed to a site that gets linked on here semi regularly. Not paywalled, ads or pay for no ads/tracking. But I've been reading it longer than I've read HN.

this is amazing. could we also get an exported Excel version?

I was having issues earlier today (in the last two hours) but it has resolved itself for me at least.

Really needed a story like this, something positive to end the week! thank you for sharing and wishing you all the success in the future.

From the website, I feel sick reading that given the circumstances...

Any company using kids risking their lives on buildings as marketing material can go to hell

The only happy consequence is that it's probably driving a certain person nuts right now.
