Because the software is super cheap. Affinity sells perpetual licenses at a fraction of what Adobe charges. They need additional income sources. Makes sense to me. Why not break up the pricing to pay for only what you need?

Woohoo for the new arrow keys!

That's what my company is doing. We're small, already a Windows shop, so it just makes sense to centralize on Azure.

Update: OK, OK. I'm getting a lot of responses saying that Gmail is a bad example to use, because it's slow and bloated. I've responded to a few of those comments, but I think it should be addressed on a higher level. To clar

Google Maps is definitely a great example. I chose Gmail as my example, because from what I've read, that's where XHR was born, which is what I view as the birth of web apps. It's the idea that you don't have to pull an

Ha. Who says you shouldn't try to make money on the web? This is a deeper argument about capitalism and exploitation of resources. Practically speaking, capitalism will always find ways to make profit from exploitable resources. If you

Obviously native code is faster than a generalized scripting language for the web. Again, it's all about what you're trying to achieve. You can still use those fast native clients, but you can also access your Gmail from any devic

I was talking about the early Beta releases that caught on like fire. Specifically with their use of XHR. That doesn't mean that web apps are always slow and bloated.

I want to emphasize that I was talking about the first beta releases of Gmail, which is where XHR was born. Or so I read.

I think you're right. But I think that's because it's still early days, nobody has really nailed it yet. We're all trying to make sure that when something sticks, we'll be ready for it. It seems like TypeScript and

You're welcome. My struggle on HN is to try to ignore the groupthink and keep the sarcasm out of my tone, but sometimes I just can't help myself.

by x3haloed 7y ago
That's true. I guess I'm just frustrated by that. I suppose I should just accept it and let it go haha.

Of course the reasonable answer gets downvoted. Stay strong! And remember that you're not a good developer unless you write everything in vim compiled for an OS that you wrote for yourself in C, backed up on a trusty old 2MB platter dr

I think the missing subtlety here is simple design vs. simple to use or simple to learn. Vim is very simple in design, but not at all simple to learn.

The Readme doesn't take itself too seriously. It even says the name of the project started a joke, and pokes fun at its logo. I have a suspicion that emojis just make you upset.

I recently logged into CS:GO to play something familiar and holy cow, the toxicity! Just like the old days. Online gaming has always been extremely toxic, and most internet discussion has been that way since the beginning. It reminded me of

I never wrote on Medium, but having been a reader on Medium back before the rebrand and business model pivot, my impression is that it provided the entire platform at a time when it otherwise would take a lot of work to build, host, and mai

This. Dimensionally, it's almost exactly the same as an F-150. There's no reason to complain about the size.

So features are gimmicks when they're only useful to a subset and buyers? Even if they're very useful to a subset of buyers? That would make towing a gimmick.

OK, list them out. What are the reasons that the design is impractical?

Okay fine. As long as we're not believing announcements, then Rivian’s prices are promotional too. And so are the specs. So this conversation is pointless.

What?! Sure it can be more convenient to drop things into the bed, but have you ever tried to get things back out of the bed of a full size pickup? Beds are tall. That's why it's more convenient to store things in the storage room
