wait, you mean the (originally) windows GitExtensions app? Cause that was bar none the beat git UI ive ever used. As in, im a hardcore command line git user for everything, and I still actually liked GitExtensions. It looks like theres an o

agreed. If Sublime had an acceptable way to implement good debugger support, and spent more time on the plugin development ecosystem (dependencies, easy plugin testability, etc...) it would be pretty damn stellar (and lets be honest, its a

it's totally dependant on your workload. for some users there will be absolutely no difference, for others it could easily be thousands or tens of thousands of dollars of savings over a year.

I switched to Firefox (dev edition) a month or so ago almost completely becuase the TreeStyleTabs extension is better than anything for chrome. I LOVE having nested tabs. It totally prevents me from getting lost when I'm links deep in

wow, congrats Jon and Will, this has been a long time coming. I can not think of more than maybe one other piece of software I gladly pay for and look forward to new releases. Also, Will: I apologize for being one of those assholes with

That would probably be a good middle ground. You will still get people saying "what the hell, mine take 3 seconds to start up with 10000 plugins and 20 1MB files open, but you say 350ms?" But, can't please everyone.

jEdit was a seriously under rated text editor, I used the CRAP out of it in college.

I think Will Bond has a git plugin that's supposed to be pretty good. I don't like VCS plugins in my editor though, so I've never tried it.

like lots of software, a lot of that can depend on plugins, themes, how many buffers are getting re-opened from the previous editor state, etc.... I imagine it makes it hard to produce meaningful numbers outside of extremely controlled test

Im on a Nexus 5x, but I do the same thing, and had the same thought when I saw this in the keynote. I have my phone unlocked before I'm looking at it probably ~80% of the time.

that threw me for a bit of a loop as well. This means that responsibility for doing ACL whitelisting at the edge is now moved from the actual edge, to the security groups on the actual servers responding to request, right? That's do-ab

I'm gonna check kubo out, cause its REALLY relevant to me in the coming months. Can you comment any why kubo might be preferable to something like kops? You are probably aware of this, but people are starting to get a little fatigued f

a lot of the time you can restrict shared data access to at least being read-only, which helps a lot.

No, its every day syndrome around here for this type of thing, I've seen it frequently. A lot of people on HN are not receptive to someone posting a blog entry about their experiences re-implementing something for learning purposes if

for now. people are unsettled because this is a classic slippery slope situation, or it has the potential to be anyway.

This is the real issue. Sure, there's the whole thing about it being a slippery slope to straight up shadow banning or otherwise censoring users deemed as "purveyors of fake news", but that's further down the road. How t

deserializing data structures is a great example. JSON.parse is SLOW. all it takes is a bit of bad code that doesn't do any checking of input size/etc... and if an authoritative source starts sending larger payloads than usual, yo

It has nothing to do with the language, there were other serverside javascript frameworks before node; they didn't take off (e.g. Narwhal). Node's success has everything to do with the environment itself in combination with the

i haven't read up on fuchsia/magenta too much yet, but my impression is that it's going to be a much larger shift in general. If Google can take some less drastic strides to fix this problem before a huge change like fuchsia,
