My first read was really confusing. I kind of blanked out that photoshop was from Adobe and read that “Adobe photoshopped ships on macs” as in ships photoshopped on images of Macs for some marketing reason.

I need a new car but I am put off by the range and charging infrastructure of EV. I haven’t looked into it properly yet but I’m surprised there’s not much more good hybrid cars on the market, sounds like a great compromise on the paper. Wha

Your extension looks good! I made a similar extension with clojurescript 4 years ago, using algolia api too. It's not intrusive and only look up when you click. Check out the code here: https://github.com/jazzytomato&#x

I agree. I’ve been using IntelliJ ultimate for a few months now and I don’t see myself going back to sublime or emacs. I do work mostly with ruby, typescript, golang and occasionally clojure. I recently found out that with the Ultimate vers

I've got a Mid 2014 MBP Retina and I'm happy with it, except for playing video games. I tried to upgrade to one of the new MBP last year and I hated it. I sent it back. I tried a windows with WSL, as well as an ubuntu setup, on a

I hate discourse's CTRL+F. When things like this happen I open the devtools and search in the dom, and it's a horrible experience too. I just don't want to learn each website's custom controls. Don't hijack my CTRL+

I get your point but it's still a good thing that the authors are writing about tracking. It's probably a different team working on the website and I'd hope articles like this open people eyes even internally at the verge

The 3D Touch on the keyboard to edit text is absolutely amazing. I use it all the time and saves me a lot of time. I love it. It's a shame that most people don't know about it. However I don't use any other feature with 3D to
