I haven't had this experience at all with my new TV I bought this year. It boots up in quite literally 3 seconds and I can navigate to netflix or the criterion channel right away and begin playing stuff there I can even mirror my phone

For logins that are important, I appreciate the extra security of 2FA and am not frustrated by it. Also, for many people they re-use the same password for everything, so enforcing 2FA makes sense for them as well

This is a fantastic summation, this put into words the exact feelings I have about it; which is a hard thing to do. It can be hard to vocalize things that are very internal and feeling-based, which is what branding association is

The Brothers Karamazov. It really is as good as it's reputation would make you think It's fascinating to read a novel written 200 years ago in a country completely unlike mine, but see so many traits and characters that I know and

VIM people are very bad at explaining this. Basically, VIM allows you to compose commands together, so that learning one command means that you can compose it with another to do things very quickly. The best example is this, imo. you have a

I think the joke is just old, if the joke you were going for is the "I identify as an apache helicopter" type jokes. It's just old and not interesting now, it's been 5+ years of those jokes and they don't have a bit

What's an example of more detail that they could have given? They gave plenty IMO but I'm curious if you can think of any extra detail because it sounds like you think they gave none

Programmer brains are weird, and are stimulated thoroughly by any and all optimization, especially ones that are impossible to not see On the scale of reality, it's obviously less time to just pick up VScode in a few hours of learning

I don't understand how this comment is anything other than "beggars can't be choosers" You want free software, that never asks you for money, that stays updated?

> It's crazy: because it doesn't lead to higher sales, it's seen as a bad approach. WHY? "Just because." If the goal of a company is to create higher sales, then it is a bad approach. If the goal is to create a g

Why would you say this without doing any research or looking into this at all? Why just assume this and post it as if your opinion on what it COULD be without even reading a little bit about it has any value?

Do you think that it might be more complicated than the scenario you've devised, or do you believe it is as simple and foolproof as you say?

Thank you for linking this, I had a great experience reading it and discovering the same problem that the author had. I didn't even consider it was possible to directly and intentionally have an emotionally vulnerable conversation! I l

It's different context when you're writing a thread a thread in twitter vs doing a blog post or something else like that. If John Carmack just wants to get a couple thoughts out there, not worry about paragraph structure, and just

As far as I can tell, everything you described (Maybe with the exception of donations) is the exact same as a bank account you don't tell anyone about. Do banks really start to bother you if you have multi-millions in there or somethin

Do you really think that use cases for statically typed languages are rare?

by stnmtn 5y ago
Not sure if this solves 100% of your problems, but this seems like it could help a bit https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/typescript-console... Also for me, the benefits of a statically typed language on a

Oh, in the console? Probably won't work? I'm saying that you can run chrome's debugger on source mapped TS files, which is really really nice for bug-hunting and developing locally But I mean if the biggest complaint you have

by stnmtn 5y ago
No one using TS claims JS is broken. People want a good type system in javascript, and with that obviously comes a new layer of complexity The tradeoff is clearly worth it for certain use cases, and clearly not worth it for others. It seems

Again I'm just confused as to why you're mad about this when you haven't even googled anything. Why are you putting the burden on me when you are the one complaining they don't exist while spending 0 effort to see if the

Do you think that because you don't find it offensively personally, that it's 100% fine to say and anyone else who finds it distasteful is wrong?

After 2 years you still felt that way? I've been using it for ~5 years and felt that after a year or so having to think about vim melted away and it just feels like the natural way to edit text, I barely think about the modes I'm

How is it easier to move your hand to a trackpad than it is to keep your hands right on the keyboard, do `ci)` which is (c)hange (i)nside `)` to delete all of a function's parameters and instantly be retyping them? I don't underst

How do you handle having to change a function's parameters, for instance? In vim, you just have your cursor inside the (...) and do `ci)`, which is (c)hange (i)nside `(, which instantly deletes all the test inside the (...) and you can
