DVORAK has long been debunked. It was a fraudulent study conducted by the US navy. The transition into dvorak will slow you; the constant need to setup your key layout on new computers will slow you, the inability to use other computers qu

The winrar trial has ads in it that try to load activex controls using embedded IE webview; an obvious security concern. I reported it and they suggested I enable activex.

I setup a local docker cache using a docker image. The transition to HTTPS everywhere makes caching this sort of thing difficult. One has to install and often manually configure trusted certificates on every client to maximize the cache. AP

This all assumes the tax payer isn't generating any additional income, which I think is a big omission.

These comments and the article show a remarkable misunderstanding of a wealth tax. I'll focus on just the article. If, as wealthy person, you can't make about 5% each year to cover that top tier of tax, I think it's totally f

Apple famously makes its money on the hardware; if they claim the cut is for the app store tools, then they better start charging less for the hardware. If the tools are indeed paid for by the hardware sales, they should reduce or eliminate

Almost every reason given in the comments in favor of vim is not mutually exclusive to vim nor mutually exclusive with other features in other editors. It's easy to find vim alternatives, including GUI applications, with these supposed

At the cost of usable? IDK about that tradeoff. With the wallpaper specifically, it's always covered, at least on all the computers I use.

You could swap Adobe in for Autodesk and almost the entire letter holds true. High cost, few improvements, few alternatives. There's a little more competition these days with Adobe at least.

Regardless of the react aspect, Adobe could use some lessons on usability fundamentals. This design system's use of pervasive fade animations and low contrast are rather upsetting.

A good, free GUI is one thing the NoSQL world could really use. I think the GUI here could use some work. I might suggest more standard icons and reduced margins. Whats the story behind the facebook and twitter buttons in the freebsd screen

> PHP has the best database integration of any language I’ve used Entity Framework in .NET is lightyears ahead of PDO. I'm a fan of PHP but the DB connectivity is definitely not one of the strong points.

One would think, but it's inconsistent unfortunately. Most platforms have input and output of ISO 8601 but they are less interoperable than you would expect. PHP's claimed ISO 8601 parsing is completely inadequate; it consists of
