author has a very good point but the example is somewhat weak. if i recall correctly, pycharm knows about TODOs, WARNINGs, NOTEs, etc. not only it highlights these keywords but it also allows you to jump from one to the other throughout the

yea. i get the deceased people argument. but this name / brand protection thing is total bollocks. if you are not going to use the precious @firstname or @first.lastname maybe someone who has something important to say would? not fair

same. author quickly lost me when i found these usual suspects in the repo: .babelrc, Gruntfile.js, package.json, package-lock.json, etc... the fundamental premise still holds. we need to go back to roots and improve on HTML.

this is more in line with what i am thinking. maybe our evolution is not complete yet. maybe we will improve? maybe our next step would have us interact with data and information at the speed of computers if not faster. then what?

it's nitpicking... i just saw "A History of APL in 50 Functions" (the original title) changed to "A History of APL in Fifty Functions". HN's hive-mind at work. social platforms need to rotate mods imo.

"1. for the money, 2. for the..." is how i understand the "no evil" thing. just like people used to write micro$oft. it's funny i have not seen that one in a while. but yea, the most important factor is perhaps mone

you guys remember when old looney tunes and old tom & jerry were appropriate for kids programs? nowadays they are not. a few of them are now on youtube right next to the recent "appropriate" ones. so yes, that line is very blu

funny how coincidental this comment is! i was thinking about the expression "welcome" today. as in: you are welcome here, welcome home, etc. how ubiquitous that expression is and how there are many languages i know of that have so

am i the only one who wishes mobile wikipedia were the standard default layout? i tend to put ".m." in those links now. big fonts, straight forward structure, clear spacing. it is so much better ah :)

love simple but useful apps like this! how's the hosting with netlify?

maybe there are startups doing just that? but don't get much attention or exposure or even funding. it's perhaps a reflection of our priorities as a society...

i agree with GP here. ES is to blame here. not long ago apache airflow had a similar vulnerability discovered about not having sensible authentication defaults. the reasoning on their mailing list was eerily similar to those defending ES he

wouldn't say simple is the opposite of complex though? especially when talking about software systems or other systems in general. what i am thinking is that some complex systems can be made of very simple components. the best example

but... since you mentioned the french, isn't french cities like paris more than thousands of years old. thanks for replying though, i was just curious why havana is suddenly singled out because it seems still a young city.
