And also people who somehow know that a UI without colors (or some other moronic, one-size-fits-all idea) is a good thing for every other user on Earth, for ever and ever, Amen.

How about 200+ comments on the actual article mirroring my exact sentiment?
513.
by WayneDB 15y ago
Right, except nothing that I said conveyed any sort of gushing "love" for Microsoft or proprietary versus any other software. Listing "it's proprietary" immediately before "it's slow" OTOH? Yeah, it's pretty telling where that comment is co

I like the toolbars though. I guess what I like and what I want didn't test well though...with that enormous sample size.

So...you're wrong on most accounts. VS 2010 is plenty fast and plenty of people build plenty of cross platform apps and web apps using Visual Studio. Honestly, I think you should really just consider checking your attitude and your politics

That's great, except the test is not taking into account my personal preference . I don't use the icons very much to do things - I mostly use keyboard shortcuts. Now, I'm going to be stuck looking at that garbage all day. Furthermore...76

I said "TV, Radio and Newspaper" and I also said "for decades" not just the last decade. > ...they're not violating your rights... I didn't say squat about "rights". I simply disagreed that tracking is "required" for web sites to make m

Hear!! Hear!! I would only buy one if I can install a stock version of Android and get access to the Android Market.

Well, paying for content sounds great but most websites that I visit don't even offer that choice. Sorry, but you're wrong that tracking is required. TV, Radio and Newspaper have been making money hand over fist for decades without tracking

Did we read the same article? I didn't see this as an attack on jQuery at all. Furthermore, he didn't even blame any tools! He blamed the platform because as usual, the web platform itself is indeed the problem . "...developers coming from

Given Apple's counter-intelligence tactics...you still don't know that. Just like we don't know whether those iPhones were actually "lost" in a bar...both times.

Replacing Javascript with a better language has not been possible thus far. There have been many attempts, but getting every browser maker to agree on something is like herding cats. So, when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. We're

Visual Studio autocompletes Javascript by executing the Javascript and using stub objects for anything that they don't actually want to run (e.g. window, XmlHttpRequest, etc).

So, you generally wanted a Mac in order to install large quantities of third party unix software... Most software developers that use OS X just want a decent GUI on top of Unix. So yeah, they do generally want a Mac in order to install la

Where can I interact with it?

In the end, Microsoft basically got slapped on the wrist. So, what does Google have to fear?

Also they don't let you edit comments or posts, which is super annoying to me.

by WayneDB 15y ago
Correct. That's exactly what I said and that's what the original commenter said too I thought.

The general consensus is not that IE was a bad thing in the long run. Perhaps nobody likes IE today, but that does not mean it's a bad thing at all. Certainly it was the impetus for Firefox being born and they introduced XmlHttpRequest. Tho

I am used to looking for punctuation on the right hand side because I am a native reader of the English language. So, I don't think I've ever had to exert myself or do any extra scanning to see right-hand side punctuation in Javascript or E

Sorry to be negative, but I hope this doesn't mean that we're going to start seeing more of node's code in the npm style.

None of that rules out the iPhone status symbol angle. What the "best product" is, is so completely subjective and since when did that matter anyway? You probably think that Macs are the best computer...why aren't those the biggest in the e

The OS has always mattered. Do you really think that all the businesses that run Windows could just switch away from it with no pain? Gimme a break.

Yes, drop-down menus are a drill-down system, but after the first click, you can see each subsequent menu's drop-down by simply hovering. In a touch-oriented drill-down scenario, there's no concept of a hover, so you have to touch once to s

Drilling down to see leaves and then drilling back up to the root to see the next branch sounds tedious...unless I can do it the same exact way that it can be done now with a mouse and a normal menu (i.e. without clicking, just hovering). H

No it's not. The person you're replying to didn't say why he mourned the death of physical publishing, he just said that he mourned it. Paper books come along with a certain amount of convenience and freedom. Digital books, while convenient

With printed books: 1) You easily lend them out to anybody at all. 2) You can save a ton of money by purchasing used books. 3) Once you buy it, the store you bought it from can't just delete it from your bookshelf like Amazon has done in th

Which javascript project did you work on that had several million lines of code? If you can't tell us that, at least tell us what _kind_ of project it was please.

It took me at least 30 seconds to figure that out. I clicked darn near every pixel on the page before that occurred to me :) I guess you really stick by that rule of "one way to do it", huh? I kid. Great presentation, I like your passion an
