In a modern, well-supported programming language's arsenal, there are many tools that work to take some of the pains of coding away. The compiler is but one of them. Unexpected behaviour and errors can be caught by means other than c

I don’t know why you equate fun and risk; it’s my limited expendable cash we’re talking, not yours. In countries where consumer protections are a complete joke, and a bad purchase is as good as a write-off, I could perhaps understand this s

What exactly is the purpose of this post other than to insult? What contribution did this make? All you’ve written is snarky insults. I’m not responding to any of that. From the HN guidelines: - Be kind. Don't be snarky. Have curious c

In other words, broad sweeping generalisations about a service’s users are not useful.

Yeah, I use Twitter because it’s part and parcel of being a Twitch streamer. Perhaps there’s a certain level of narcissism involved in being an entertainer but that line of argumentation might be a bit of a stretch. To me, it’s just one of

"Consistent design language" doesn't mean "behave exactly the same". That's exactly what Catalyst is for — to take iPad apps and make them good macOS citizens . Is that not exactly what you want? A consistent

You'd throw your watch in the river because someone used a few buzzwords? Apple harps on every year about how their Apple Watch is the most personal device they sell. Personal. Intimate. Love. Magical. Yet, we still buy the things beca

Totally. Avoiding screen sniping should be up to the streamer — in OBS, for instance, one could set up a scene with one source item, an instance of another scene, then add a delay filter to it. Then one can freely switch between the live sc
