I find that convention over configuration often is trying to solve the wrong thing. It puts a tremendous burden on the user to know all of these conventions when being simple and direct usually works just fine. One example is an Ember RFC I

That doesn't help much. Server rendering means the user can see something , but if the browser is executing a 2mb blob of JS and it takes 3 seconds to do so you get major jank.

You're talking about rendering performance, but I'm talking about performance issues caused by bundle size.

Note that you should not choose Ember if you are creating an app intended to be used on mobile, as it doesn't yet have code-splitting. This talk explains about why this is a hard requirement: https://www.youtube.com/wa

I don't know why you ever thought it was for developers. Clearly not having coreutils makes it a non-starter ad a development machine. ChromeOS was always about being a thin-client. A better kiosk OS, if you will. With that being said,

The point of a Chromebook is ChromeOS. If you're using Ubuntu you might as well be using a low-end PC. Nothing wrong with that, but it's not a Chromebook any more. Chromebooks are not about the hardware.

Well, in this case, it's not deprecated. It's deprecated by one computer manufacturer. There are more than enough other computer companies still willing to sell you a keyboard layout like the one you've been used to for the l

Looks really good! The design is fantastic, well done. My only criticism would be that the Getting Started page is definitely skewed towards a specific segment. Like, how is Sports not an option? Music? I understand that there are only 9 s

I code a lot sitting on the couch, external keyboards are pretty inconvenient. But to your point, there are many ways I could workaround this change (changing key mappings, for example). But my point is; I don't have to. There are plen

I don't think I'm insulting the project by saying I disagree with their defaults. Certainly no disrespect intended. > I personally like the default mouse setting, but you're completely free to change it if you don't.

It contributes to preventing the topic from derailing into "how to configure tmux", which is not what my comment was about. Derailing threads is considered bad etiquette online, it's not just me.

To me tmux, like a lot of tools, suffers from bad defaults that makes it less enjoyable to use. One example is not being able to scroll with a mouse. I usually find someone's tmux.conf online and use it, but always run into strange pr

I wonder how much it would cost for the entire NES catalog, or even if they would be able to do that (b/c of licensing issues). I feel like if I bought this thing I would think about some game from my childhood and it wouldn't be

This is mentioned in the article. The author criticizes this because it means they have to keep the type and the list in sync. I think this is a pretty pedantic reason to dismiss a language, personally.

It would be cool if this could some how use DOM diffing (I assume it just uses innerHTML now), so you'd get minimal dom updates with the advantages of doing everything server-side that this already provides you. Throw in some smart ser

It doesn't matter; worse is better. 1999 Yahoo Mail was not a good user experience, but it (and other web-based mail services) destroyed the likes of Eudora. Ubiquity >>>>> UX.

I like Chromebooks for the OS, not for the hardware, so I use Secure Shell with tmux & vim.
