First it was monokai then solarized; these days seti is pretty popular too. No matter how advanced colour matching engineering was needed for solarized, there will always be a colour scheme that just looks more beautiful... in the eyes of t

boto currently has 3 APIs, depending on the module's version. Having both Table.query and Table.query_2 is confusing for newcomers, especially with the poor documentation available. Rant over, this release looks cool, love the .all() c

Not sure it has improved as far as the UI look goes. That ugly oversized left bar is hideous, as are all the badly low res gifs they seem to be using for icons. Look at osx or windows which have been doing crisp looking icons for a while. I

The window title for IE 10&11 devtools is for some reason named "F12" on my windows 7 machine. Maybe it's just me but I find this annoying, feels a little unprofessional.
