Stop freaking out. It's just a UI.

Eliminate caffeine. Increase consumption of animal products. My sleep quality improved significantly after switching to a 90% carnivore diet.

LOL. Downvoted? I think most people browsing HackerNews will not be freaked out by minor UI changes 30 years from now. Even a 3 year old child can figure out how to use an iPad.

WTC7, a solid steel 47-story building, spontaneously disintegrated and collapsed symmetrically into its footprint at near free-fall speed. This was due to small fires on the ground level, not the government. EDIT: small fires at ground leve

"Hateful" is such a corny overused word these days. Childish exaggeration.

Exactly. This article is so ridiculous. Benchmarking "Hello world" performance? What a joke.

Yes I have used plain Vim as a text editor for many years. It's a great text editor. I know it was also used for writing code back in the old days. For working on large modern JVM codebases, however, Vim is a toy in comparison to IDEA.

Redis is widely used in production environments. The code quality matters.

You can install IdeaVim in PyCharm. I've been using IdeaVim with IntelliJ for 6 years and could never go back to non-vim style editing. This plugin provides the best of both worlds.

You sound like you're on the autistic spectrum, struggling to understand basic human social interactions like some kind of hyper analytical artificial intelligence. The server was being helpful, not bossy. That was a great example of c

I thought I made this clear in my previous response. Apple is already highly competitive in processor design. The A12X matches the mid range processors from AMD and Intel. AMD does not own a fab. Apple doesn't need to own a fab either.

Dead meaning that, in my opinion, they have sold their soul to Satan. Boeing was previously at the apex of engineering. The 747 was a respectable achievement in 1968. The MAX debacle has exposed a catastrophic fall in engineering standards.

$17 billion is peanuts for Apple. However, Apple uses TSMC for fabrication and they are already at 7nm. No need to own fabs. AMD doesn't own fabs either. The Apple designed A12X Bionic processor contains 10 billion transistors and is a

Yes it means I would be forced to fly on a shitty plane built by junior engineers. Living life in the danger zone.

You're probably right. But don't underestimate Apple. They have $250 billion in cash reserves.

Irrelevant. If Airbus is doing the same, then they are also dead to me.

"Rabin, the former software engineer, recalled one manager saying at an all-hands meeting that Boeing didn’t need senior engineers because its products were mature." Boeing is dead to me.

Romero hated that ad. Some weasley manager pressured him into running it.

1994 is a long time after 1990 for computer prices. Moores law was in full effect in the 90s.

Why are you projecting this hostility? I don't perceive China as an enemy. I live in New Zealand. China is a major trading partner. I'm just stating facts as I see it. China has made unprecedented economic growth by leveraging exi

You are totally confused. I'm not talking about Chinese as a race of people. I'm not saying that Chinese people are inherently incapable. I'm talking about the Chinese government REGIME and its inferior economic ideology. The

Voted down. How exactly am I wrong? Even Chinese people agree. 60 million Chinese people were starved to death under the communist regime last century, while the Americans were inventing microprocessors and launching rockets to the moon.

China have only achieved this result using fundamental science, technology and engineering concepts that were invented in the US, Europe, and Japan, with the unfair advantage of ultra cheap labour costs. They have people working like slaves
