I can’t believe HP is popular as a desktop and laptop hardware vendor. Their products are absolute shit and the prices aren’t low enough to make up for it. They remind me of the ultra cheap office pens that I bought once. I was new and my b

If it weren’t for the iPod, Apple Computer would be on that list. RethinkDB comes to mind. In the vein of palm pilot: The Apple Knewton.

This argument doesn’t make any sense. The isps would just deprioritize the zero tier traffic so you couldn’t use it effectively. It’s only faster because of how things work today. Nobody would care about being able to watch Netflix via zero

Agree whole heartedly, bought a Paw license and never use it. I use insomnia instead. It's cross platform like postman so I can use it on my linux box and recommend it to all of our team members and it's not a pain in the ass. Sur

You must have great internet that has symmetric upload and download speeds. When I’m home (in San Francisco with $100+/month connection), the difference between pushing a 12mb image and a 100mb or 300mb image is 10 minutes. At work I d

Cool but I’ve never heard of a programming language that doesn’t come with a compiler or standard library does that really need to be spelled out?

I don’t get the hate for things built on electron. The technology is awesome. Have some patience. It will eventually improve to the point where it is very low overhead and provides much richer experiences than we have in the terminal today.

Wait, why? I never understood why people with ultrafast connections care so much about this. It's not like you are doing anything that remotely uses 100% of that speed most of the time. If I had even close to a 1Gb symmetric link I wou

It's not like more than 1% of android phones that have shipped to date will actually get an android update to Oreo anyway so why not leave them behind and update the kernel? New phones need new drivers which must support the new kernel

That makes sense but why would you be enraged about this if you were in that situation? It's not hurting anyone besides maybe car owners who aren't in the category you mention. I can't afford a lot of things but if having the

Does the value proposition of bikes for rent at lower cost than provided by existing bike rentals needs to be explained? A single rack might displace 2 parking spaces at the most.

The muni pass costs $70/month. One year of bike costs less than 2 months of muni, not sure the cost argument holds up. If you are actually using it to commute, and not to hipster around town, it's very cheap. As another commenter

This article is one of the most rediculous thing I've ever read. San Francisco needs those bikes for people to get around because the public transportation in SF is downright awful. The "subway" is composed of cars from many
