The only way stacks evolve is if we start a dialog on how unnecessarily verbose they are, you don't just write that verbose code/configuration, you will have to read it some time in the future, your IDE might not be able to help y

The point is Google should make their product attractive instead of relying of just leveraging their existing power to promote it. It doesn't have to be exactly 1:1 for people to be expecting at least the same quality.

You won't have good IDE support. You won't be able to directly debug your code. Also it can be really fun to reason about nested macros.

It doesn't matter if they were ethical or not, what they did is not right. They are not law enforcement. If everybody would be allowed to enforce the law, then I would be free to shoot you in the head just because you made a negative c

It's perfectly fine for a TOS to allow a service provider to comply with the law. The problem is when they have their own highly ambiguous laws and lack a proper system to resolve violations.

A web browser should not require more than what an integrated GPU can provide, if you have an app that needs more graphic power, than consider writing proper native app. I'm a web developer, however I don't like the idea of giving

Normally I like having features like this in a language, but in JS I think it will be just a new tool for the "ninjas" to write crappy unmaintainable with it.

This is just a Qt SDK and a tutorial on how to write a WebView app. It's like opening up Android Studio/XCode and adding a WebView. I would have expected to see something where I only write HTML/JS.

As a web developer I have to say: a 2x increase in JS performance is insignificant. If I would profile most web apps, JS execution wouldn't account for much of the processing time, the DOM interactions are order of magnitude slower. Us

A lot of the time pair programming and code reviews could be simply automated, which I find infinitely more efficient. If it can't be automated that may be a sign of a bad architecture/tooling.

I find this sexist, it discriminates against men. If it would be the other way around we would see an endless stream of blogposts on HN complaining about how sexist Google is. This right here is a good example of the damage the hypocrite fe

So we should hire people because they are women and/or not white and not because they are good at what they do?
