Ummmm, what? Spotlight I'll grant you, but Finder is hands down the worst file browser on any operating system. There's no up button, no split screen, you can't copy a path easily,…

See for example the atom text editor. Amazing editor, down to one or two maintainers who can't keep up with the issues/PRs. RIP.

The problem with Pokémon isn't a dearth of new ideas (the fairy type is a great addition, as well as EXP share and several newer improvements). The problem is there are more and be…

I do care (and steadfastly refuse to play newer pokemon/animal crossing due to the save shenanigans), but not so much that I didn't buy a (used) switch with the top games (Mario od…

If you watch the Engoodening of No Man's Sky on YouTube, it argues exactly this. Every thing that Hello Games' Sean Murray said ended up haunting him, and them stopping the communi…

This doesn't refute the GP's point though. I've done both the very light management and very heavy Jira, and Jira makes it easy to track what's actually going on. If you want to kn…

Does anyone make these? I know you can get a phone app, but all the e-ink I've seen has been kindle/nook/kobo. I'd happily buy one.

I'm with you. Also hopeful that the DF steam release comes with a slightly easier to use UI. If you want similarly hilarious stories, try rimworld.

I read the article, but had to use FF's reader mode. Why do people use #666 and a super light font weight for body text?!? My eyesight is fairly good, and it's still incredibly har…

As I understand it, that one is Linux Mint. For windows users, it just looks like a slightly older windows. That said, I don't think Newbie friendly and power user friendly must be…

Now is the perfect time! Rimworld just got a gigantic (free) 1.1 update and a smaller (paid) DLC to go with it. Rimworld is like 2d dwarf fortress, but way more accessible. The con…

Why does vim exist anymore? Neovim exists and has more and newer features. We should just get rid of vim, and have Bram focus all his efforts on nvim instead. Some of us don't like…

From the community manager, on the atom slack: > Lee Dohm: @aviatesk This is a temporary status. Atom’s pace of development has always fluctuated over time as developers join and l…

Strongly disagree. To implement something simple in VS Code, you have to write an entire package, or put out a PR to one. To implement something simple in atom, you open up your in…

Disclaimer: I do ruby for my day job, and python for fun Disclaimer 2: I don't hate ruby, despite all these criticisms. If I had to pick a worst dynamic language it would be PHP. T…

Also a full time Firefox user. Another bug that I believe is actually Firefox doing the right thing: if you make an event handler function but give it no parameters, Firefox will h…

Less than half the time is provable. More readable is a bit of a stretch. What does declaim mean? What about ftype? What is the (* * *) in the array declaration? What is ash? I've …

What? With ruby, there are at least 4 ways to find out how big something is (.size, .length, et al). You want to loop over something? You can use python style for in loops, .each, …

KC native here. I haven't been to SF, and don't ever plan to. I live 12 miles away from my work (to the East, thank goodness), and bought a home a few years ago in a very nice subu…

With python, a good IDE should be able to find usages. If you delete a method that has usages without searching for them, you're asking for trouble. Sure it's not a compilation err…

Well, if you're looking for battery life, both safari and edge have excellent battery life by virtue of not doing anything useful. And if you're looking to do dev work, that usuall…

As the other comment mentioned, extensibility. Their API is much easier to navigate. Their commands line up exactly with the name that shows up in the fuzzy finder, so dispatching …

That... hasn't been my experience: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/18549 https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/16858 Maybe I just care a little too much about code …

For the same reason that controllers have both "normal" and "inverted". It's all in your point of view. Are you controlling like a mouse (up on the joystick looks up) or like a joy…

The problem with this is I'm a web dev and I can't really do all my work in emacs. For backend people you can live entirely in emacs. Once you hit the frontend you have to start in…
