Yes I do. Ever use textmate or Atom? Sure you can configure a bunch of keys if you want to change them but nobody ever does.

The big news here is fraction scaling without hacks! The hidpi support is awesome. You can specify a fractional scale instead of a non-fractional one for the ui and then adjusting the fonts/using xrandr.

I don’t understand why people go gaga over this stuff. It’s a camera in a plastic box with a screw hole. Are there that many Richard Bransons out there? Now that smartphones are increasingly becoming water proof I can’t see this providing i

I don’t think the goal of the software is to be hardened from all attacks from every angle. I think they are trying to prevent human error by compartmentalizing the system so they can work with sensitive data and avoid commingling it with p

Facebook is not good at mobile. Uninstalling the app is the single best thing you can do for your phone battery life. Just use the mobile site with safari. It’s blazing fast and doesn’t slurp your address book or location and drain your bat

Gross. If I wanted a drink that tasted like an ash tray I’d order a cigarette. Mezcal is disgusting, I don’t get what the hype is all about.

Heroku did this properly imho. They are a perfect example of how one can provide hosting that actually is helpful and sophisticated where it needs to be but gets out of your way when you don’t need to care (for 99% of applications that don’

Fogleman has some really cool side projects in a variety of areas written in a variety of languages... and I noticed he’s got two kids! As a new father, how is this possible? Really boring/easy day job? Having a daughter is an amazing

I don’t use windows. There could be one for Linux but I can’t spent my life worrying about what could be. Gotta get work done eventually and I’ve got encrypted boot and data volume with secureboot. If you have a larger tinfoil hat you can a
