You’re giving Dell / HP / etc too much credit. They’ve tried over and over again to build a machine with Macbook level quality. They have laptops that cost just as much, if not more, than a Macbook. And every one of them has some

You see the brevity as a bad thing, I see it as a good thing. If you can’t get to the point in 280 characters you probably don’t know what you’re talking about.

I don’t see a purpose to this in an era of Docker. They say their mission is to make it easy to host your own web apps, and provide some security around those apps, but Docker makes this easy as well and also provides a small amount of insu

Only thing I could find of him mentioning WebAssembly was here at 19:45: https://youtu.be/MxB0ldQfvT4?t=1185 In that video he says that it’s not a suitable target for TypeScript to compile to because WebAssembly doesn’t hav

I was told that N-ginx is a curse word in Chinese, so I pronounce it En-Gin-Ex. I think the former is more intuitive though

People complain about Python being dynamically typed, adding weird modern syntax that isn't intuitive, and breaking changes from 2.x to 3.x. People complain about Ruby being dead, or don't talk about it at all because it's no

What world do you live in where $140k in gains on an investment is not a huge amount of money?

Holy shit talk about a humble brag. You overpaid by $21k? You must be balling.

This is just a big ad for his website with no in-depth knowledge or insights provided. Literally just a list of tech someone uses and 4 or 5 links to his website. Is this what HN has become? I remember the content upvoted on this site being

The cool thing about 1Password and similar is that not only do they work in other browsers (Firefox), they also work outside of the browsers (e.g. in iOS I can autofill login boxes with credentials pulled from 1Password)
