how cli tools implemented in node is "without suck" is beyond me. fucken hipsters


Absolutely... Replacing a single DLL with Node is "simplifying" it.... Jeez...


Cool story bro. Guess you were on a very early dropbox beta.


just transfer files from the old windows box using radmin or RDP


please dont override default scrolling behaviour, the site is unusable


Yep, agreed. I can only scroll by using the scrollbar.


Can somebody please build a scrollblocker for Chrome and Firefox?


Apparently I'm using one. It's called NoScript. ;-)


Not sure what issues you are seeing but I'm able to scroll completely normally.


There's a "smoothscroll.js" loaded by the page. Looks like it only targets Chrome users.

For someone uninformed, what did they change? I'm able to scroll using the keyboard keys, scroll bar, and arrow keys on my keyboard. Is mobile scrolling what's broken?


I'm using Chrome on Mac OS and I can't scroll left and right in any of the code examples. This is particularly bad because the OS hides scroll bars by default under the assumption that you'll be able to scroll left and right with the trackpad.

Also, it's hard to describe exactly what the problem is, but scrolling up and down definitely feels weird and frustrating. For example, a light push that normally goes down a few lines of text on any other page seems to go down a full page. It also seems "stickier", like any scrolling takes a split second to "kick in". As a more contrived example, if I hold two fingers down on the trackpad and scroll up and down in place, any other page will scroll up and down following my fingers, but this page seems to jump around in an inconsistent way.

Something on the page is trying to intercept scroll events and do something smart, but at least on a trackpad on Mac OS in Chrome it makes scrolling feel much worse and less predictable. It looks like Chrome, Firefox, and Safari all behave differently here, with Chrome behaving the worst.


They added a TON of "inertia." Flick the trackpad a tiny little bit and it keeps moving long after I take my fingers off, giving an entirely different screenful.

Your users know better than you how fast they intend to scroll. Always.


also seems to work fine on my end. scroll wheel, middle mouse button work too. seems normal.


Also the text on the code samples is so large the typical code is twice as wide as the box it's written in. Painful.


random idea. dont use XML


there's also this insane idea of not scripting in bash. ffs!


Dear hacker.
