I'm in Bolivia but I get prices in British Pounds including VAT costs. What gives?

If I use a service like HideMyAss.com to get the US page, I can see the goods in dollars and that price I should be charged.

Any suggestions? I shouldn't have to pay VAT as I'm not located in the EU.

Thanks!

Judging by how slow your site is at 7am EST, I'd say your sale is a big success :) Anyone used AppCode? I'm tempted to give it a try, but what's its killer features compared to Xcode? If refactoring works with ObjC++ that'd be a great start; worth EUR23 alone.

This screenshot alone is worth $25 to me: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nGVTKms6ALo/TysNLgb6rGI/AAAAAAAAAJ...

Can someone chime in with how Pycharm compares to Komodo Edit - or maybe just if you've had a positive/negative experience with Pycharm? I'm starting to get a little frustrated with Komodo, and I remember liking a very brief Pycharm demo I tried a few years back, but I'd love to hear an HNer's opinion if you happen to use it day to day. It seemed to have a pretty good reputation back then, but one of the concerns I h…

I have used PyCharm daily since its early versions and have been mostly happy with it. When I think about it, it's actually the first IDE for any language I've kept using for longer than a couple of weeks. The best features for me include code navigation, run/test/debug, refactoring, inspections, keyboard-friendliness. It's also got a decent editor and built-in support for Sass and CoffeeScript. Btw, they also provid…

This is exactly what I say when people ask about pyCharm. I think i've tried a dozen IDEs and its the only one I stuck to. I've used it for a couple of years now for django and python development (and they've also just added first-class Flask support), plus I use it for front-end/javascript coding now too, I couldn't live without it now.

Does anyone know how, say, IntelliJ handles Javascript? or RubyMine? For instance, If I've got a Rails project with JS in it, do I need both WebStorm and RubyMine? Wish there was "one IDE to rule them all!" type of thing. I don't work in just one language.

If you install the JetBrains Python plugin into IDEA you get the same functionality as PyCharm, same with Ruby.

If I have pycharm - is it more or less the same when I install e.g. the Ruby plugin?

I have WebStorm and it is great. I was thinking about phpStorm and appCode. Can someone confirm that IDEA with Plugins will have the same feature of those apps? I am trying to see what is best to buy separate apps or IDEA alone and add plugins.

AppCode is not a part of the IDEA bundle. It follows XCode more closely than the generic project format that IDEA and the other apps use.

I've been using PyCharm for almost a year now, for professional development (and some pet projects), and I am very happy with it.

I never had PyCharm making undetected changes to my code.

I've been using PyCharm for 2 years now and I love it. I am thinking of buying WebStorm, as the web app I work on has gotten a lot more JS heavy.

Would I be better off getting IntelliJ and getting plugins for it, or having PyCharm and WebStorm separately? This has an impact down the road when I have to renew licences!
