    It's a joke - the comment references a song [0] from the movie Titanic, which prominently features a sinking ship. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Heart_Will_Go_On

    If you're wondering why comments are a factor at all, and aren't just discarded by the lexer, remember that comments in JS are preserved and available to things like `Function.prot…

    This isn't a totally new phenomenon either. I used to ride this stretch of the Metro to work every day back in 2009-2012, and I remember seeing these plants back then too. At the t…

    In the final example where he switches to int32 for Go (after "Let's make it use int32 consistently and try again"), he runs gopherjs twice instead of running go and gopherjs. I ho…

    I really like Go and have definitely felt there's room for great integrated tooling there. I want to do Go as one of our early code engines. We'll probably start off using srclib f…

    The "Hot Dog Stand" theme was actually requested by more than one person. Gotta give the people what they want.

    We want to make sure it's light enough to run on netbooks/travel computers. We've got a Dell Venue 8 with an Atom processor lying around that we're using as a test device to make s…

    Yep! It's in the backlog; to start we'll probably use srclib [1] under the hood to provide the code intel bits, and we'll do some special UI wrappers for bundler/gems. [1] https://…

    We want to do some cool stuff with SQL down the road. We'd start with features like a query result browser, but could expand that into things like query analysis too. We don't have…

    For what it's worth this is also true of NuGet: "NuGet.org does not support permanent deletion of packages, because that would break anyone who is depending on it remaining availab…

    The syntax is pretty great. I think you've used it before, but the syntax you're seeing is the Fluent Automation framework - it's an open source project that's been around for a co…

    Other author here. Not depicted in this video are a handful of other pretty neat features that we demoed in a video a while back [1]. Namely in-browser test recording. In the past …

    Agreed. I think a blanket "Don't even try" is silly, and antithetical to the ethos of HN. I'm surprised there isn't more backlash against this. "Don't just draw them on the skyscra…

    Regarding the US to China route, this is more complicated than it would seem. While getting a visa is probably the easiest solution, there are some situations where it is not requi…

    This is more likely to make you look oblivious and foppish rather than suave. Looking "suave" comes from adherence to classic dress. Stick to a four-in-hand knot. If you're trying …
