I vaguely remember programming small to large PHP sites with just sublime text... never again. My impulsive purchase on the 21st December 2012 was the best thing I did that year.

I bought PhpStorm, RubyMine, and Appcode in the Dec 21 sale of 2012, all 3 of them have been upgraded to the latest versions (just updated RubyMine today)

That would be incredible. And they could use their test cloud infrastructure for automatic testing upon build..

What about iOS where you definitely need OSX? Xamarin has some integration with VS (I've never used it myself), but it still needs a mac with OSX installed to work (even if it's just a macmini somewhere. If Microsoft does buy Xama

Interesting, but I didn't care much for the visualizations shown - they took up way too much space on the page for the bigger companies.

I had the exact same feeling - I was unsure of whether I should be seeing a "save" button or not - and I didn't know whether the site had saved my response automatically. It's a very subtle approach, but it's a litt

I was an avid Linux Format reader for some time and had a print subscription for a heady couple of years. However, the content seemed to have dumbed down recently, and the ratio of advertising to content seems to have grown. Also, I'd

What about the surely obvious privacy implications? A lot of people on HN are barely trusting Google with their mail, or even their searches - would you trust them with seeing everything on your screen?

Doesn't seem to work for WYSIWYG fields in Chrome: ALSO NOTE: Lazarus 3 doesn't save WYSIWYG editors yet, this is due to a Chrome bug ( http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=20773 ) which

I hope it's not indicative of a trend among laptop manufacturers. Apple removed Ethernet ports from their MacBook Pro Retina, ostensibly to reduce form factor, but also rendering it useless if you're in a place without good wifi,a

While it hanged Safari on my iOS7 iPad 4th generation, Chrome kept on working without a problem. Could it have anything to do with Nitro?

They are mis-quoting this study: http://hmi.ucsd.edu/howmuchinfo_research_report_consum.php wrongly. From the linked article: In 2008, Americans consumed information for about 1.3 trillion hours, an average of almost 12 hou

If you're travelling for fun, yes - but if you're on business travel and need to be on time, then feeling lost is the last thing you would want.

I don't see anything wrong with asking Microsoft to contribute. At this stage in Windows Phone's lifetime, it's probably a win-win situation. Developer covers some or all the development costs (to minimize the risk of porting

Digital Ocean (and Linode) provide Web Console support, so if you lock yourself out via i.p. - there is the console as a last resort.

Meanwhile, $20 a month at digitalocean gets you 2G of RAM and 40 Gb of ssd. Not to diss Linode, I use them myself, but they're not the cheapest. It's quite evident to me that these free upgrades are a defensive tactic. How much me

Not catching that the screenshots do not represent the actual app seems like a pretty big goof. It's in Apple's best interest to project a quality image in the AppStore. Quality over quantity.

You can still use bitbucket on your own hardware with http://www.atlassian.com/software/stash/pricing (Not affiliated with Atlassian/Bitbucket in any way - but I love their software)

Maybe a ducking motion? This isn't intended to be the Holodeck - but it's a step in the right direction. For that matter, how would you represent a jump? That said, I'd use the hell out of it for a game like Skyrim, or other

They mention Kinect integration - that should be able to detect crouching movements.

One a phone you would be distracted by email, social media, etc. In a bookstore, you can completely absorb yourself in a book.

Wouldn't you still need a battery for the times when sunlight isn't shining on your laptop? And - does anyone really use their computers in the sun? Other than that, I do agree with you that neighbourhoods should use local energy - but can

Yes and I've used it twice - the problem is that all the documentation you'll find naturally uses objective-c code - which you have to understand anyway to get it translated to c#.

I have used Xamarin recently - while I absolutely loved developing an iPhone app in C#, it was a bit frustrating to see that all the best 3rd party libraries, tutorials, etc for iOS are all in objective c - and some concepts didn't seem to
