I did the Hackintosh thing for a friend on one of those 10” HP mini-laptop 5 years ago. It was delightful when it worked, however every macOS update (or OS-X back then) was a toothache—usually culminating in 2-7 hrs of googling/re-conf

I'm curious about how long you were using Mac and how much of the ecosystem you were taking advantage of. Specifically were you using Apple messaging, photos, and / or email? Also, did you take advantage of handoff or airdrop? I

Great article @prostoalex--gets excellent 1/2 way in with the details I was looking for. Esp. interested in more on this: 'A major concern was that Russian spies with physical proximity to sensitive U.S. buildings might be exfiltr

Agreed--though much of the core code is shareable between both targets. When I first discovered the prototyping capabilities for colors/themes/samples in the Chrome dev tools, my mind was blown away b/c of how fast I could it

I was looking at the website and trying to connect the dots--the thing I'm wondering is how 2020 madness knows about a donation. Is 2020 madness a wrapper to a candidate's ActBlue landing page / site, collecting form data for

Checked out the preview on htmlstream and really enjoyed how complete this is and all the items you've included. One thing I saw was during my mobile litmus test (Chrome developer tools set to iPhone 5SE), it didn't render using t

Thanks @timqian--really like the look of this and the examples cracked me up--esp.: "Monthly income of an indie developer". I'd 2nd the comments below on Safari & size--ultimately I'm excited about using this in some

I like this idea. After reading the comments here and visiting your site, I decided to see if there was specialty information on developing software for silicon (i.e. FPGAs) as that is very different than software development at Facebook or

Interesting idea @longsangstan--I played around with it for a while and liked how the colors would change on reload or palette click. I often muck around with colors using the Chrome debug tools, but it would be interesting to have somethin

Confirmed on Safari 12.1.1--albeit different than you mention. Things work fine if I'm fullscreen on a 15", but if I reduce the window size, I see the color palette & buttons cover the image with no option to minimize or move

Indeed. Sidenote, it behaves differently if you've enabled airplane mode (or at least so the UI would indicate). In airplane mode, it gives no message and the wifi/bt icon goes transparent. If you're not in airplane mode, th

Love this idea and your excellent explanation on git--then there was this gem (added the first ? and :): " Why's your code suck? : Why do you suck?"

Have you tried using force touch to select text--I have big fingers and it's my fav. iPhone feature. You just put the cursor on a word and press hard--the word gets selected. Then press even harder and the surrounding words get selecte

Interesting comparison Irvick. Enjoying the resuling conversation too. More detail on meanings and methodology would be helpful as some other HN folks suggest. Stealthy.im isn't mentioned (I develop that presently). Stealthy makes use
