that I will succeed in making a spreadsheet editor that is better then excel (not hard) and will be widely use by the majority of people (hard). I want to destroy excel after the a…

grep is simple to use from a simple command. Setting up a Java server and maintaining it is quite a different challenge then running a command with a few parameters. I wouldn't use…

Are they both your favorite languages? Also there will always be exceptions.

I agree that a language doesn't define you but what I wonder if a person's favorite language has some correlation to certain personality traits. I would be lieing if I didn't say I…

I understand your point of view, I guess I'm more bothered by how it seems to me that people are quickly to yell clickbait and just that which if anything could bring more attentio…

And that's the type of reaction I would encourage. Yes you stop clicking on a lot of articles, but you're less likely to waste your time. I find that instead of going to around yel…

Why do you say Lua is better designed? And are you comparing classic JS or ES6 JS? I like Lua but there are some things that just annoy me like indexing an array with 1, smaller st…

A lot of times when I'm reading HN I notice there are a lot of people complaining about articles having clickbait titles. I have always been under the assumption that that was the …

this looks really cool but have there been any recent updates or is the source code anywhere I can look at?

I feel like this is the most anti-pythonic thing I've ever seen.

If I was developing a spreadsheet in the browser I would use the lowest level abstraction possible for performance (which is what they're doing since the jQuery is just a wrapper).…

What is the support for IE? I can't find it. I figure that would be very important if it's going after enterprise companies.

One thing that irks me about libre office is its hacky VBA support. I would think that they would try to support it where I could open an excel file and have the VBA code run the s…

I was hoping for something with GUI because I'm lazy, but I really should stop putting off learning vim :|

I'm looking for a good text editor that has a simple and quick scripting capability. I work a lot with text sometimes so I'll write some one off scripts sometimes to edit big files…

I know this isn't mature but I keep seeing penises

I just don't understand comments like these. Providing a blanket statement that doesn't provide any reasons whatsoever. It doesn't really help contribute to the post, and it just a…

You have to create an account to see the full list. I'm good with just the first ten.

I like this idea a lot, but it's somewhat difficult to use when you have to flip back and forth in a sentence to connect parts of it together especially since a lot of languages ca…

I'm going to give it a shot again, but when I tried before it was buggy with support for that version. It seemed like it technically connected but it wouldnt run any queries nor sh…

Absolutely agree with HeidiSQL. I'm in a situation where I'm still running MySQL 4.0.26 and essentially nothing properly supports that with the exception of the old MySQL query cli…

I have a nexus 9 and had a nexus 5 (turns out it can't survive the ocean) as well as a nexus 7. I love unmodified android. I won't get an android device that another company has mo…

It is ridiculous but at the same time tackling a problem of this size will provide so many new solutions to other problems as well innovations for new things that we might have not…

Just curious but why not Lovelace or gates?
