Tools to monitor website performance?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6068848Hi,I'm curious what the current state-of-art for website performance monitoring is?Most of the tools I've seen are either Pingdom-style applications, which simply tell you if a website if up or down, or they're like YSlow-style, which run a bunch of tests to see if you're following best practices.But is there something like say, Chrome's SpeedTracer that you could run as a service, and monitor your website's performance over time? Or before/after each commit?What would you guys recommend to track the performance of your own website over time, or gather deep-level metrics?Could you use something like PhantomJS to achieve this?Are there any existing open-source projects that already do this?Cheers , VictorJul 19, 2013 8:06 AM

Ask HN: Anyone else seeing Gmail's "Display density: Compact" not working?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5383558TL;DR: Gmail theme "Orcas Island" is borked. Any others?(Maybe I should have tried harder to squeeze "theme Orcas Island" into the title...)--Yes, this is using HN as "Google customer support", but what other option do I have?In Gmail's web client, I use the theme "Orcas Island" for a more pleasant experience. (Not only do I like the pictures; it also changes the background from white to a less bright gray-blue.)Today, in that theme, "Display density: Compact" is no longer working. Whitespace galore.I noticed some other Gmail changes, e.g. the prompt to confirm mobile phone number (for security notifications). So, maybe the same push broke this aspect of theming?So far, I've only noticed this affecting the theme "Orcas Island". (But, I'm not going to check them all...)Googling has revealed nothing on this.Mar 15, 2013 11:09 PM

Ask HN: What makes the perfect office? I'm building one.https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4739458I run a web development agency with 18 people. The building we're looking at moving to will need extensive refurbishment, so we have a chance to spec out our office 'wish list' and then build that!So: If you could completely design your office space (aesthetics, layout, furniture, lighting, flooring), how would you want it to be?(We're a Rails agency, working in scrum teams of 2 or 4, doing some pairing but not full-time, based in London).Nov 4, 2012 10:58 AM
