I dislike Electron as much as the next guy, but that description of what's "native" is IMHO quite arbitrary. Anything using a cross-platform UI toolkit doesn't fit that description, e.g. Qt apps definitely don't loo

That's moving the goalposts. The concern was for the native UI to get abandoned, it isn't. It may, or may not. The existence of the cross-platform version is hardly an indicator. If anything, having only the macOS version limited

So everything that you modified since last commit will get committed regardless? I can't add logging to some file or manually override a config without it getting it committed as there is no staging? Doesn't sound like much of a s

You presented it as a fact, not an opinion, thus my original answer. FWIW, as a general rule, I disagree: say you get to use two pieces of software with the same functionality, shortcuts et. al. for similar amounts of time, the first having

Sure, it's obviously anecdotal. I still don't have any tangible example of podcasts being ad-ridden as a general rule...

by folkrav 6y ago
Fair - although I'm not big on shifting the blame from people only relying on headlines to form an opinion. That's on them, so-called "clickbait" or not.

Not counting them out either, but outside TS, they're still quite marginal, at best.

Fair enough.

To be perfectly fair, unless you count WASM or other compiles-to-JS-but-not-quite-native langs (which, outside TS, are pretty niche), this is the case with literally every language except JS.

I'm fairly active on the Python slack channel, and this very question comes up really often when people ask for help, and in my experience, is basically never meant as disrespectful. As for the small differences in semantics, I'm

You'd probably get the same question from a plumber if you asked him how to plug a pipe in a non-intuitive way. He has no way to know your pipes are laid out in a strange way, and the only spot you have left to add said junction withou

Endeavour OS is Antergos' spiritual successor, AFAIK - OOTB you more or less get a vanilla Arch install w/ some minimal theming and configuration. Garuda looks more focused on giving you a fully configured Arch installed, includin

I listen to about ~15 podcasts. All of them have maybe a single 1-2min plug at the beginning, and maybe another at the end. All of them are about 30min or more. I'd definitely qualify the worst case of 28 out of 30 minutes being actual

Oh, indeed. It's nothing incredible. Kids love it, but it's definitely small. It's still a converted velodrome, after all. Its proximity with the Botanical Garden and Planetarium are nice though, and those two I really like.

It's not really a zoo per-se. It's closer to a permanent exhibition recreating major ecosystems, w/ live animals. Gotta disagree with the pricing thing though. A quick Google search tells me San Diego zoo is about USD$60&#x2F

It's Tame Impala! I just thought it'd be a good idea to give a warning as having some unexpected music blast in your ears when you're just there to see a guy surfing a winter wave looks like might annoy some.

Yep. It's a standing wave pretty close from the bank right behind H67. People surf there pretty much all year round, summer[1] or winter[2], it's pretty mental seeing them come out of the river with ice picks dangling from their b

The area is just expensive as hell, final. Some of these cubes are horribly dated, but just the fact it's in the Old Port makes the price shoot way up.

You often see stuff as simple as a README get out of date. Lowering the barrier of entry to write documentation is hardly a bad thing, but the problem remains that said documentation takes time and work to stay relevant.

So definitely double standards.
