It may have to do what ST3 did and queue loading of plugins after startup, instead of all at once before the editor is "usable". If they do that it could start up nice and fast in theory, though we obviously don't know what e

True; but if you were making a text editor today, with the whole flat UI trend and minimalism being so prevalent, the sublime UI is actually very intuitive. It's just that sublime got to it first, in my opinion.

Me too! I'm a big Sublime Text guy, right, but simply put sublime is lacking, especially in UI flexibility and advanced IDE features, like intelligent autocomplete, type checking etc. If this thing delivers sublime-tier quality code ed

Interesting. The whole Sublime Text theory takes another buff. The tmLanguage syntaxing, while limiting, is still pretty damn easy to create and edit, thus I approve. The idea that you have to learn a new way to build new syntaxes for every

Ugh, /g/ is pleb-filled unfortunately. The majority of the threads illicit facepalms because the crowd there, while not as bad as Redditors, politically, are quite shallow in their expertise. Simply put, a lot of nerds who don&#x2

While I mostly agree with you, one could also argue that there is a meaning to life and that is not to be happy but is to instead do all that one can do to further human survival (or whatever we end up turning into). One person providing so

Yeah, meanwhile Skype is just removing features. The other day I had this Skype followup job interview and I realized I should change my display picture or better yet remove it because taking pictures of ones self is tedious. They removed t

So I visited html5up.net and none of the demos want to load in firefox or chrome. Is it just me? Some of those templates looked quite usable :(.

Im one to agree. I can see how a woman would be pleased by seeing this, but, when I scroll up and notice it's a "Nick" who wrote the article, all I can think is; huh? Is this guy trying to be edgy? So I re-read, like you said

I wonder if the delivery industry is only going to get bigger, and actually employ more humans, considering scenarios like yours. I guess with drones and self driving cars it can be utterly automated, but really that won't happen for

LightTable is written in clojurescript and it's a first-class language for the IDE (The core devs prefering it I guess). Id like to use LightTable but I'm more of a CoffeeScript guy and CS isn't built in yet. Apparently to ad

Interesting point. The plot thickens further, to the point where in one day I've gone from respecting Joyent (for their support of node contributors and thus node itself) to; I really fucking dislike this company, their people and the

Well promises are suppose to be compatible with one another due to adhering to rules. Should be A-OK. Bluebird is just, at the moment, the most performant Promise library, and they seem to be building their API as close to what native Promi

All I have to say guys; promises + generators. My god, it's absolutely delicious. Seriously, just learn it. Get your --harmony flag on. It will be in browsers soon enough as well. It's literally the future of javascript and having

I've had this discussion in other threads; but, how wise it is to use these instead of vanilla JS in a project you want contributed to? I personally find CoffeeScript very useful, and believe it's sufficiently widespread and matur

Exactly. Additionally, it's very easy to implement a single-page-app-esque page button that simply hides one page to make room for another, then allows you to return to that page without loading any more data. Considering how rediculou
