   Due to compilation, bundle size gets a lot smaller which will boost start-up/load time.

   OneNote is feature rich (specially the availability in iOS) ... but what eventually made me drop it was the unavailability of a reliable desktop app in Linux

   As much as I like smaller and faster editors like VS-Code, in case of Java and C#, I wouldn't survive a day without IntelliJ/Rider. * Better refactoring * Better linting and code cleanup; Most of the time I learn new language feat

   1. Finding out WPF after years of work on WinForms; in that you can do MVVM stuff, control templating, vector graphics, etc. 2. React and Typescript 3. Jetbrains IDEs

   I recently (5 months ago) went this way targeting Windows and Linux and was very satisfied in the end. I might add: - Very small executable (I shipped around 10 MB executable) - No dependencies - Handling HiDPI screens (4k+) was OK - Very f

   1. How about looking for a part-time job? It could be a single project. 2. Personal side projects could work too.

    Another one to add: Besides waiting for animation, in Windows 10, if you type the password fast enough the first character gets selected and the second character you type will replace it. This happens frequently.

    Plus, people follow strict fasting (up to 210 mandatory fasting days in a year) ... at least the Oriental Orthodox church followers which make up 40-50% of the population.

    Maybe I want to have a C++ (native) port of my web library. I may want to start by transpiling my TS code (interfaces and classes) to C++. I also wonder why isn't there to C# yet?

    Strange. I had mostly pleasant experience with WPF. In fact, back in the early days it was so exciting to work with.

    Found svelte 3 after Rich's talk and managed to complete a production app using it. Found it not only a lot easier, but almost flawless.

    In addition to Chrome, Windows 10 seems to be suspicious too ... I don't know why though.

    I wish there was one for Access too. I find MS Access less intuitive than Excel.

    Glad to see lots of satisfied developers of Svelte as I am one. TBH though didn't expect to see it up there this quick.

    One obvious advantage of the "if-else" approach is using indefinite "else if" conditions rather than just one "else"

    The thing is JetBrain's IDEs use that diff tool where-ever a diff is needed, not just for git. For example, in a local history of a file (like undo history), history of a single line in code, etc.

    VSCode is good for a free editor. But the difference between VSCode/Sublime and Webstorm is night and day.

    I find MS Access not as intuitive as the other siblings though. Wish there was a "You Suck at Access" video like this one [ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nbkaYsR94c ]

    I actually tried out Vue after I had a production app made using svelte 3 and was amazed how verbose Vue is in comparison. Not to mention Svelte's smaller bundle sizes due to absent run-time library.

    Could something like Android webview work? The webview doesn't force each app to include a whole browser. So, maybe single instance of electron runtime with multiple thin apps with "electron-webviews".

    Linkedin was particularly annoying with the "you are missing out a lot ... a lot has happened since ..." type of emails. It would also give me couple of non-existent new notifications ... abusing the red indicator badges
