I’m thrilled to be joining the fine folks at Automattic this month as a mobile software engineer. Though I’ll miss all of my wonderful Clemson coworkers immensely, I’m excited for the road ahead. 🚀

It was fun learning some ARKit, SceneKit, and SpriteKit the past few days… I used it to announce a thing!

I finally got around to putting Herp Derp’s (tiny) source code out there. I also removed the jQuery dependency because that was overkill. Version 1.6 has been released for Chrome and Firefox.

Some derpy numbers
Now that this site has basically turned into ‘herp derp‘ central, I thought I’d post some numbers up regarding downloads. Running this command on my Apache access logs provided me with the download numbers for each browser version (in this case Firefox):
cat access.log | grep xpi | colrm 16 | sort | uniq | wc -l
Note: This method isn’t exactly super precise, it would only count once per IP, but it does the job. It also doesn’t account for other sites like download.com.
As of this post:
Chrome: 4722
Firefox: 2564
Safari: 531
Opera: 278
Update: 7-12-12
Shortly after creating this post I got picked up by Boing Boing, Gizmodo, and Reddit. New numbers:
Chrome: 8026
Firefox: 4025
Safari: 919
Opera: 415
Go Herp Derp!
Herp Derp updated
I got around to fixing some annoying bugs in Herp Derp tonight:
- When loaded via HTTP Secure (HTTPS) Herp Derp now works (thanks for reminding me @Funshine__Bear)
- Firefox no longer freaks out when there is only one comment
- YouTube Feather Mode is now supported (thanks @_sjs)
The latest version is available for all browsers and can be downloaded here.
