The issue I am having with design patterns is that they are full of big weird words that doesn't mean anything to a new programmer.

I used to love Dropbox, but nowadays I have little use of it. Sometimes it just stops syncing and reinstallation won't fix the problem. And forcing API upgrade caused a lot of headache for me as a developer.

I don't think China is the only winner of Free Trade here. China did have a large surplus, but isn't that most of the profits go to American and European companies? Why that money wasn't going back to America is a myth itself

The headline is overhyping, but the result is surprisingly good given I had a very low expectation. It won't fool anyone, but should be usable for some scenarios.

Thank you. I was really tempted to buy one since people on HN have been saying good things about it. I also had heat issues on a dell laptop years ago, sad to see it's still not fixed.

in latest nodejs there is no a single place to catch exceptions in promise chain, which is very inconvenient.

In this particular case, I am grateful for the early disclosure that I can fix it right now instead of waiting. For a huge bomb like this, I think you really can't blame the messenger.

Can't one just get a paid version without the amazon search? I know it can be uninstalled, but still, feels better that no such thing exists in the first place.

The fun part is no matter which editor you are in, you get this quote replacement for free!

Obviously, that counts as a spoiler. People also like to figure things out on their own.

The recent innovation to iOS keyboard is a feature called "Smart Punctuation". When you type the single quote, it will automatically turn into a unicode apostrophe. I am sure many programmers occasionally writing code on iOS are t

People should publish PDF version of a document. But if they send the working copy around, then the history may be helpful for other collaborators. Think of git. They can even merge the changes easily.

I wish Debian would adopt Ubuntu-like versioning number: "yy.mm". So easy to understand. Another good example is TeXLive, which simply uses "yyyy". Much better.

If Guo's breaking law, then let him be sued, and actually he's doing these things to try to get sued. Guo is backed up with a legal team, and is hoping to expose more in court. It's disappointing to see FB taking side with th

Web app may not be as good as you wish, but I think GUI app development either on desktop or mobile is definitely worse. Otherwise there won't be a market for hybrid apps. For those desktop app guys who haven't heard of vue, spend

It's a dead simple editor, comparing to VIM or Emacs (both I used a lot). Everything behaves just as you would expect. And it's fast, it's small, and it's got a lot of packages. What more do you want?
