You aren't from the United States are you? They are already washed when you buy them here so you have to put them in the fridge.

I'm using Linux Mint and it scrolls super slow. I will never understand why companies insist on wasting resources on ruining a feature that works perfectly fine. What do they get out of it? Does it somehow lead to more profit? It reall

I can't tell if you're trolling or not. But if not, this is a terrible way to think: It's okay to steal and gamble with someone else's money as long as you become rich enough to pay it back? Only if you lose more money t

> "this" refers to the Sprite that invoked the function Sure, "this" is always what invoked the function. Why not just pass in the sprite to the function though and use the argument instead? That makes the learning mo

It's a shame they decided to involve one of the worst parts of JavaScript and hardest to explain in all the examples: "this". I've written a lot of JavaScript code that doesn't use it and it's really easy to un

One of my biggest gripes with modern software is using notifications for things that shouldn't actually be notifications. IMO, marketing/advertising NEVER should be a notification. Notifications are for things where you find value

I don't understand this at all. How is this for developers?. The first screenshot of the main page is half logos/ads for companies using go. If I'm a developer using this is meaningless to me. The first link in the navigation

$4.99 a week has to be a joke, right? $20 a month is about double what I pay for Netflix and half of my phone bill. Just to send messages to people? I'm sure the article is leaving things out but as of right now I don't get this a

I knew someone would say this. I almost used "as a parent" instead. Hacker news and the internet in general is full of people making opinions about things they aren't experts in and that's okay. I wonder why parenting is

This is completely absurd and I'm convinced it solves zero problems. The kids don't know they're being spied on until they do something "wrong". Gaggle (a terrible name btw) claim they prevent suicides and school sh

That's absolutely a marketing message. It's most likely a feature that I don't care about and benefits the company more than me. I don't need my phone to vibrate. If I received a transfer that's a different story.

This was my exact experience. They provide a UI that doesn't allow me to type and then immediately after I'm done using it and want to get feedback I need to type? No thanks.

It's the same thing with restaurants and tipping. They want you to see the lowest number possible when choosing what to spend money on. Then you pay a 20% fee on top of that for some reason.

I don't usually install apps (especially games) with in app purchases. The only time I sometimes do is when I know what they are up front. Can you explain what the in app purchases are in the description?

Cool, but how does it help me reason about my code and maintain large projects? It doesn't even support typescript. Sure, the components look okay in isolation, but what about the big picture?

At least they brought attention to how bad it was to rely on NPM. If anyone doesn't remember, this is how the whole left-pad issue started: https://blog.npmjs.org/post/141577284765/kik-left-pad-and-np...
