For what it's worth I used VSCode as a ARM build on a Chromebook with crouton. It was fine. I think it cost me $150 used. > cancer that needs to be nipped in the bud. Come on with the hyperbole. Electron is effectively (nipped) as i

Kind of wish they hadn't released a teaser for something so heavily anticipated and with so few public updates. Really sets the bar higher than it needs to be.

I also understand this critique but feel it's a bit hollow. Or at least I feel that despite billions of dollars in available funds the big software producers failed to create a solution that is better. They are simply unable or unwilli

I'll throw in my two cents on top of this: * SPAs: Microsoft has a vested interested in porting a lot of code to SPA applications. Teams being the latest example. * Windows is dead, long live Windows: A desire for a lighter version of

People say this but I've tried many times to add themes, make tweaks etc. Can we give some 'distro' makers a little credit? I couldn't make Pop_Os if you gave me 10 years....I know cause I've been trying for 15.

They should buy elementary OS. System_76 borrowed heavily from elementary OS to create Pop_Os which is a dream. Now that I'm saying it I hope they just swallow a little pride and become a major contributor to Pop_Os. Every devops and n

For the longest time I assumed MS would buy Ubuntu. I'm not a .NET dev currently running PopOs on my XPS 13. VS Code is my primary editor for all things. If MS released a desktop that looked this good and came batteries included for th

This comment wasn't substantive and really just attempts to hijack a sound discussion with a form of divisive reasoning I thought was contained solely within the comments of Fox News. Arguing that the general groups of faceless people

Blerg. Then also an apology. You did say that your post was in your _opinion_. I chose to engage. You were kind enough to respond and expand on your opinion. If I missed that and used a needlessly harsh tone then please know that was not my

The point I'm trying to make is that you do seem to be making this A > B comparison without caring about the quality of those hours. Again, it seems to present the argument in a way that echoes the concerns I've heard. "A&

Many people here have echoed the fears and complaints I've heard on this topic. Simply that somehow taking parental leave at all puts you at a disadvantage. Or puts you in a position where you have to explain yourself. I feel like what

What if I don't stop believing them? Your comment is written in such an off putting manner that I wonder if it must be satire. You've dictated, generalized, and disparaged with every sentence. Even if I wanted to agree with the pr

This aligns with my understanding. I applaud every experiment in this space. We just don't seem to know enough about ourselves for folks to speak as confidently about these terms and their impacts as we do. As I'm raising my kid I

This is my guess and the one I'm excited about: Azure is a cash cow. Windows brings in money but is increasingly difficult to monetize _and_ its increasingly difficult to keep bringing legacy app support forward and stay competitive. P

Thank you for this. While I love a good old nerd round of 'stump the wizard' I also appreciate someone pumping the breaks with some realism. Some security conversations get to the point where it's stringing together a highly

Agreed 100%. <rant> Full disclosure I'm a bit of an MS fan boy as they have paid my bills for going on a decade. That being said, I want a solid AR product more than I want my team to win [so to speak]. By comparison, I tried Hol

Some companies have all the right ideas and for whatever reason still can't execute. Adobe AIR beat things like Electron and PhoneGap to market by years. IMHO the issue with Adobe is this insistence on 'open' still having var

That is very fair. However you are disagreeing with something I stated was my very humble opinion. I didn't mean for it to be an analysis. More of a story shared at a pub as to why I don't fish off a particular pier anymore.

Yup. Xamarin is another tool I want to love. I'm also following the Blazor project ( https://github.com/aspnet/Blazor ) like it's my job.

I'm not so sure. Reading John Carmack's story (and others) it seems that Steve Jobs was able to convince people to enjoy the abuse and remember it with revery. That is a special kind of talent, but as others have mentioned it seem

100% this. They will also be treating PWA (progressive web apps) as first class citizens. Same as everyone else. Honestly, I think if they would just buy Nox ( https://www.bignox.com/ ) and bake it into Windows 10/S as a
