(This is not editor related but in a similar vein...) At my previous job we had to get a QIDO[1] since I type Dvorak and switching layouts with Cmd-Space was driving us both insane. We would invariably forget to switch and either write gibb

At this point I won't be excited about Intel in tablets and phones until a major manufacturer announces products based on Intel's SOC. Like Linux on the desktop, next year is always the year of the Intel tablet.

How is the NameCheap/GoDaddy drama going to change SOPA? Does anyone think that GoDaddy has enough weight to actually affect the outcome? And even if they did how does this drama constitute news about SOPA? We all new people are leaving GoD

Not to mention motherboards, batteries, keyboards, trackpads, and soon SSDs. But I still wouldn't want them to stop making software. I really enjoy using a lot of Apple's software and software available for their platforms.

For git users: echo ".DS_Store" >> ~/.gitignore git config --global core.excludesfile ~/.gitignore If you spend many man hours dealing w/ .DS_Store files in source code repos you're doing something wrong.

Chrome ruined Safari for me. When I fire up Safari more often than not I end up doing this: http://i.imgur.com/nDk2R.png

There's no way to reduce something like: runOnUiThread(new Runnable() { @Optional public void run() { // ... } }); It's just the nature of the language. I honestly don't mind recent versions

/home/sjs % cat /etc/issue Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS \n \l /home/sjs % sudo -f sudo: invalid option -- 'f' usage: sudo -h | -K | -k | -L | -V [...] Must be a joke.

You could make the same argument about Unix, but I still say that with great power comes great responsibility. If you can't handle the responsibility maybe you should use watered down tools. That's somewhat bleak though and following that l

If you don't like Fedora switching away from it will be more productive then fighting it on every change for all eternity.

I don't understand what the big deal is. If his systems aren't useful distros won't adopt them and no harm is done. If they are useful and distros adopt them then he has advanced the state of the entire Linux community. This petition seems

Changing every line of code results in a hefty patch.

It's a nice, comprehensive list. If you (or anyone else) feels inclined it'd be nice to have a heavily biased list of tools that in your opinion are the cream of the crop. A honed version of this bigger list.

He sounds interested to me. To be fair nobody needs 8-10 tools for regexes alone. Except maybe Jeffrey Friedl. Recommending one or two would be plenty.

The problem is if you open a new window with "Open "filename.ext" in a New Window" and then try to do something like Cmd-T or Find in Project in the 2nd window it doesn't work. So you'd have to open the project again, jump to the file you w

I agree for the most part, but that sentiment depends on individual usage patterns. For example opening multiple windows works alright until I want to Find in Project at which point I have to switch to the project window. A minor annoyance

By which you mean juvenile. I don't mean that in a condescending way. No one wants to work with a bunch of uptight folks. I think it's good too, but let's call a spade a spade.

On the contrary, the community decided that text is not worth reading. It's very democratic. If enough disagree with the downvotes they can upvote the comment and make it black again.

I let socket.io worry about that. Great library.

The source is almost as interesting as the language. Craziest HTML I have ever seen render so nicely. It's a self-modifying Perl program.

Brighthouse Labs had over 3,000 apps for sale at one point. I'm not sure how many are left but Apple has pulled the plug on at least some of them. http://www.google.ca/search?q=brighthouse+labs+site%3Aitunes...

"under an open source license" is vague. I hope more details emerge soon. If it's a liberal license this could be very interesting. Without a group leading development the project may languish so ideally a competent group, with a vision, de

Small world :) There are at least a few of us here on HN (that I know of). Everything I need is downtown so I rarely bus anywhere. Living out by uvic would be annoying without a vehicle though.

Microsoft sells Windows licenses for money. Google gives Android away and hopes to generate ad revenue from people searching on those devices. Not a very apt comparison.

Same here in Victoria, BC. (population: ~300,000) I think downtown living in most cities is similar.
