- zubairq 8y agoOk, testing with a different headline now to see the response: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18975316 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18975316
- zubairq 8y agoI tried it but the hacker news crowd seems to respond more to Visual Basic 6 (see the link I attached). I guess outside of Hacker News people think more of RAD. Thanks for your input :)
- vb6lives 8y agoI'm sure the hacker news crowd leans more to web apps and mac/*nix. The first headline never mentions "windows".
- zubairq 8y agoOk, thanks, that makes sense as I am a Mac and Linux user myself. I only use Windows as Mac and Linux is virtually non existent in the desktop corporate world in Europe
