I am :) I just added a filtering box where you can type something in. Excluding is just a tad too complicated a UI to make simple enough in a short time, so it's include-only for now.
I expected more, nothing really interesting on that list. Just the usual suspects, the same old Mac software that's (1) always on sale or (2) bundled up every few months.
Eh, the fact that there are a lot of paid software for Mac is not indication of the lack of open source software. It only suggests a healthy market.
There a lot of open source software for Mac, too, and I frankly does not use any software on this list. In fact, the POSIX nature of Mac OS X means that the majority of open source software on Linux are also available for OS X.
I never understand this mindset, where OS X having a thriving independent software ecosystem -- something that I would expect HN to support, startups doing well and all that -- is a negative.
You're being a bit irresponsible, people are not really the same after embracing Emacs. First you try to understand what's the deal with all these parens and year later you frown at almost everything that isn't Lisp.
For people who purchased the iOS 8 course based on Swift, there is a further discount to $39 until Monday (not sure if this applies to people who haven't yet purchased the course, so caveat emptor).
Not a dev tool per se, just a general purpose app that may come handy as a part of the development pipeline. Here's the Show HN I made several months ago - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8027405
It feels very much bait and switch cause their big seller isn't eligible. You don't know that until you add it to the cart and try the coupon code though.
We're giving WakaTime premium out for the student price for 1 yr (applies to team plan too). Student price is $5. Use this coupon code on the billing page:
>It seems they haven't had a sale in ages, which is a shame because I really want Pycharm but won't pay full wack for it.
They've dramatically reduced discounts since they introduced the Community edition. I can't blame them, tbh. Try the CE, it might be enough for what you need.
Sorry, not picking on you, but statements like yours kind of bug me. You want a quality product yet refuse to pay what the developers have determined is both fair for their development and continued evolution and support for their product? Well, then, use something else.
Disclosure: No relationship to Jetbrains other than being a happy customer who paid "full wack". I do wish they'd improve their support though. My experience has been it's mostly crickets for a while before you hear back.
I'm surprised why this upsets you? You are making a fundamental assumption that price is somehow connected to input costs. This is not true for anything other than commodities. An experienced marketer was giving a talk in one of my biz classes in school when someone asked him how one much one can sell X for. His response was ... however much you can sell it for :-p
So tldr ... pricing for all non-essential goods is a game played by the seller and buyer. No one should be upset :)
That is weird, because they did have an end of the world sale at something like 75% of if you brought a years worth of upgrades, so they are not against using silly days to sell merc.

Also "Unix Power Tools" I have found to be a useful reference.

The annotated UI pagers on the homepage are neat.
I hardly even thought to make the distinction. These days, for technical topics anyway, the "e-" prefix is just as optional for "book" as "mail".
No, it's not. If you sell me a book, and it turns out to be an ebook, that's a scam, and I'm getting my money back. Technical topics or not.

I'm looking at it for some extra performance over VirtualBox, and so far it seems to deliver.

Which technical books have you recently read that could appeal to the HN crowd?
