Not OP, but UC San Diego taught both Vim and Emacs when I was there 5 years ago
Apple doesn't have much incentive to build new Mac minis and new Mac Pros.
Significant cultural difference makes for really interesting design differences in apps and websites! Americans (maybe Westerners more broadly) tend to prefer simple designs with plenty of white space, where Chinese…
I'd agree it's common knowledge, but I love reading detailed accounts of that kind of thing. Cheers anyway!
The idea of factions in Microsoft fighting for control is interesting to me from a historical perspective - do you have any books or sources I can read to get the full story?
You aren't including the time it takes to find your phone, pull it out, maybe unlock it, and THEN do the steps you describe. That's friction, and that's where these frictionless interfaces step in.
He did, but the audience doesn't. Every show and movie that deals with this kind of stuff does it.
I see that Acre (a home construction company) is on there. Kind of odd for a gift giving site. "Merry Christmas! I bought you a house!"
Most people only use 4-6 apps a day, or less. Users are spending more and more time in fewer apps. I reckon a good bit of that is the friction of installing new apps.
As a pale person who burns easily, I can assure you that the sun is much more dangerous than my cell phone.
Not OP, and I don't have an opinion on Go, but I think that's why he used the words "threatens to".
You can actually turn off retweets for individual users if you want to. I do that a lot.
"Massive" JS frameworks aren't the issue, not by themselves. AngularJS, for instance, is only 39.5kb. Bloat sneaks into web applications in other ways, but merely bringing in a framework isn't enough to add a noticeable…
I hold the door open for everybody, and I've never been accused of sexism. I usually just get smiles from everyone. If a woman were to call me a sexist for holding the door open for her, I'd shrug it off. I'm not so…
Part of professional life is understanding how to communicate with others and how to know before you say something how it will be taken. Some people aren't good at this, and those people should work on it until they get…
"...not navigating the PC minefield" I see variations on this phrase all over the place, and I don't understand it. It really isn't that hard to avoid saying offensive and distasteful things to women (or anyone else,…
I guess I was looking at some very out-of-date or possibly incorrect figures. My mistake. Updated my comment accordingly.
95% of YC-backed startups fail. A few go on to have decent success, and maybe 2 or 3 YC ventures actually went on to billion-dollar valuations (Dropbox and Airbnb). And that's considered a really good success rate.…
I think you may be missing the point here.
> And let's not get into the whole privacy thing. A 1 TB drive is, what, fifty bucks today -- and people would rather store their files in a datacenter across the ocean? Yep. Fact is, HNers are much more concerned with…
Well, of course they do. But they also have extremely strict rules about when you can access what user data and why. Employees can and do get fired for minor infractions of those rules. Clickbait article?
Right, because no talented engineer has ever spoken anything less than perfect english.
My company's solution - small teams of 4 to 6 people, each cluster separated from everyone else by 5 foot walls with whiteboards on them. Our development style is pretty collaborative, so we benefit from having…
JavaScript is only unpredictable if written by a poor developer. It's just a language, and it is as powerful as you are. Weakly typed languages are not hacky - merely different.
Angular and jQuery ARE JavaScript.
