I still think the best Git plugin for Atom is https://atom.io/packages/atomatigit-robdel12 It keeps the general spirit of magit which... is probably the best git client out there. Fugitive is a close second.

I gave VSCode's vim mode a shot a few months ago and found it nowhere near Atom's vim-mode-plus. Has it gotten better?

While fast internet speeds and more mature tools do make things better, my team still spends most of their time saying "can you hear me?" or "can you repeat that?". Meanwhile, I've never asked another team member to

I certainly don't begrudge them a single dime of profit. Just using their position as "the de-factor search engine" to hype the sites using _their_ tech is a sleazy move. They spent years positioning themselves as the best se

I like this answer so much better than mine, I should go and delete mine! Ask any shopping site how many tracking pixels, analytics scripts, etc that they have included. They'll tell you they're all necessary.

"Better" is a very subject term. "Loads faster" is fair. Google has made things load faster by forcing apps to be stripped down (nearly useless for anything outside landing page or news sites) and heavily caching them. G

When I was a kid, I found out I could just send the composite output to the RCA input on the back of my Betamax... and then RF out to channel 3/4 on my color TV. I didn't even need to save the 13 bucks for the RF modulator from Ni

There's bad, and then there's GIMP. GIMP's general UI thought is, "we thought you might need this button... sometime... maybe this week... so here it is".

My company paid $4800 for an Amiga 4000 with Video Toaster in 1996. As far as I know, that thing lasted another 10 years!

Oh I dunno.... back in the day, there was Texmate, and it was like a pretty Emacs. Then came Sublime, Coda and Espresso. That was an era of pretty text editors. I was used to vim, so all that beauty didn't really entice me. When Atom f

I saw it somewhere else, but a direct response is, vim-mode-plus. It's the absolute best I've seen in any editor. I was able to port every shortcut/binding/snippet from my .vimrc. The thing is just awesome. I tried the v

We've had the prospect of video chat for decades. 2001 A Space Odyssey showed us that it would be the de facto way to talk to our families. Tom Selleck promised us in the early 1990s ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZb

I wouldn't say "better". Like any other framework, many things have to be weighed. In the case of F#, it's a fantastic language with a fantastic runtime. It is still "windows only"* for the moment though. Akka

Ahhhhhh! APL and Piet I didn't feel bad about (as I have never seen either) But VHDL vs Ada! Bad miss on my part. 12/15 is not too bad I guess....

Let me stress this major point. Google is NOT the web. They are but one major player. Yet when we speak of "SEO" we mean "pleasing Google". I find that reprehensible. Google is NOT fighting for a better web experience. T

Aside from having something that resembles Backbone's events hash, I didn't see anything that didn't look like a React component/VueJS component. Did I miss the part where Backbone was mentioned?
