What's your evidence that Apple "won" because of computers bought by rich families in the 80s because last I knew after the mid 90s Apple got (checks notes) massacred in the computing world by Microsoft and the rest and reall

Neovim is amazing but recall how long it took you to get used to vim keybindings. It isn't something you master overnight. I recall it took me a few weeks to get comfortable. Lots of people are perfectly comfortable not using keyboard

I'd argue the best part of MacOS is the font rendering.

If it’s the same role and they can do the role why would they get paid less? Experience alone doesn’t mean much.

Thanks for sharing. I love seeing projects people embarked on for nothing more than they thought it'd be fun to do.

My iTerm2 is taking 17s vs. 0.3s for Terminal.app. Any idea why yours is an order of magnitude faster?

Honest questions since I read these sorts of things a lot right now. There's the assertion that there's a lack of focus on macOS (I agree w/ the hardware issues for the most part). 1) What data other than anecdotal (e.g. it f

Your preferences aren't necessarily optimal for others in the same way that macOS, Windows, and Linux may not be optimal for various people. Many assumptions about what a "real" developer is. I don't develop on Windows,

I hope that's sarcasm. There have been problems with macOS (OS X at the time) all the way back to public beta including sluggishness pre-Intel transition. It was (and still is) a great OS to use - but to pretend that pre 2007 existed a

From what I've read / discussed with animal nutritionists, you want to feed your cats pure protein wet food. They get more water from wet food than they do from drinking water. Plus you avoid a ton of crappy things they put in a b

The annoying part with Linux on rMBP's for me isn't the display - it's the fact that my palm rests on the trackpad and causes all kinds of issues that macOS is immune to.

I think the whole 'pro-user' description needs examined a bit. Tons of developers at companies use macbook airs which are far less powerful than the newest laptops. Ex: Rob Pike uses a macbook air. Is he not a professional? There&

Why can't we concurrently work towards solutions to multiple existential threats at once? It seems like if we only focus on the threats we're aware of, one will likely hit us and wipe the species out.

The first time you rent a car, a real human validates your license and your credit card. After that, you can scan any car until you change your credit card or get a new license.

I don't think the fact they are a multi-billion dollar company has any bearing. If it does - where do you draw the line? Is it always okay regardless of the income of the original creator? It gets stickier when you dive into other type

Just so I understand what you're advocating - you're advocating that, if I, an artist, drew a picture of Mario from Super Mario Brothers, I should be able to sell that picture on some sort of physical media (button, pin, etc)?

Sure. I don't disagree about not writing tests at times, etc. That's different than the point I'm trying to make. Leaders aren't necessarily tasked with doing any job a developer thinks is shit. The leaders job is to

> Testing is really important, but few developers like to write tests. That means it’s your job. As a leader of an engineering team (and an engineer), I think the is this is entirely the wrong approach. It's a leader's job to

Are you seriously suggesting language designers should care about every sort of markdown syntax that exists when determining how a language looks syntactically? Take a step back and think about your statement...
