I appreciate the fact that this isn't some biased "vim is God" type post. It has good points too about how editors do tend to follow the Emacs style where "command x does y". To me, that works fine because most of t

This doesn't do the best job of matching. For example: match text aaaabcc match text aabbbbc match text aacc I can just type 'a' and it will let me continue. While it's valid, I would assume the point is to match the

The way I've typically worked is static pages are allowed to be done in IB, but everything else is done in code. The reasoning is that doing things in code makes for much easier diffs and merges and also allows you to easily edit code

It sounds like you were kind of against it from the start in which case you would never end up liking it. There is a huge learning curve and, to make the most of it, you really do need to learn Emacs Lisp. As for keybindings, you are free t

Hah, that basically does some it up. This post isn't very front page worthy as it has zero content with the exception of emacs being more extensible. The author should have given some specific examples about which things Emacs can do t

I agree completely. Its use case is highly specialized and all it does is make a bunch of code nicely split up into methods and crams it into fewer methods with a ton of blocks. Even the example of "before" and "after" o

You'll have to redefine the properties in the subclass's class and specify @dynamic so that it knows the properties were synthesized in the parent class

Which is fine. But you're specifically saying that you are building Git to learn how it works. All I'm saying is, based on your wording, you need a disclaimer that this is not how Git works internally. You can already get the gist

I 100% agree. It's always great to try to implement complicated things, but it misses the point if what you're implementing is nothing like the original system. You aren't learning how Git works if you do it that way are inst

So I've never used Evernote before, but after reading this article I decided to try it out since I know a lot of people who swear buy it. My first time user experience was awful... I immediately started creating test notebooks, test no

Yeah I think most people just see the offer and get too excited, especially if it's their only offer. It's a real shame because culture plays such a huge part in how happy you will be at a place. It wastes both the company's

There are a number of good questions in here. It's too bad that companies don't send out these types of questions with the answers to them to people coming in for an interview. It would be hard to choose just a few to ask, especia

Kudos for learning to program at such a young age. It'll give you a leg up when you decide to get a job or start a company and need funding. However, I'd suggest taking some time and working on the quality and originality of the a

Couldn't you remap those in Keyboard settings or use BetterTouchTool to remap those? Granted, I like iTerm2 for other reasons as well

A contributor is supposed to be following the coding guidelines of the project from the start. If they don't bother to do that, they absolutely should be rejected. Why is it hard to follow a consistent style?

Definitely a possibility. I was figuring that as well, along with super realistic video game scenes :D

I'm always curious why people remap the caps lock to be control. For me, extending my pinky to the caps lock makes the second key press hard. Like quitting emacs would be harder for me. I should make command the meta key though. That s

I agree. This post isn't the best explanation and is riddled with grammatical errors that caused me to reread sentences multiple times. Regardless of the age of the author, if you put up a blog post that is supposed to explain a concep

It was more of an ironical statement, however the legality you brought up is definitely interesting. At least in California it's not legal to record conversations without the entire party's consent (except in rare circumstances).

Those suggested interfaces look very messy and inconsistent.

The main issues are that gestures are not consistent across apps. So if I teacher her pinch gesture in one app, it might not zoom in another. If it doesn't do anything, she is most likely to get frustrated because to her, pinch gestures sho

In my experience with my own grandmother, gesture driven interfaces are significantly harder for older people to learn. Think about safari where you have double tap to zoom in. My grandmother does a bit of a hesitant tap when I give her my

I was going to say the same thing. Allow screen sharing for his user so that he can easily jump in and do updates or fix problems. I'd also add in disabling all the function key buttons, especially Dashboard since the author was correct in

If you're going to post a giant list like this without any screens or up-to-date links, at least add some bullet points about positive and negative things for each app or something. Otherwise I might as well just search "hacker news" in my
