Time and time again, after being frustrated with Lastpass's UX i think of how much nicer 1Password looks. I really miss that app. It's hard for me to suggest LastPass to people who aren't comfortable. I've heard people

I'd like to say that with Mavericks adding OpenGL 4.1, I can play a number of games much better on my Macbook Pro (early 2008).

I saw this reasoning flying around a lot when Valve started working on linux. I saw the move from linux initially as a natural extension of developing for the Mac OS. GabeN was quoted saying something on the lines of how the games were runn

It's not user friendly to do. Jailbreaking on iOS has been shockingly easily lately when it's released.

The main reasons I stay on iOS 1) Vender lockdown & habits - I've been using an since the second iPod Touch (as a PDA). I'm not ready/eager to change "my workflow". 2) Accessibility - iOS (and the mac os) has ha

Did you miss the part where he says over and over how he uses vim? Did you read the replies on reddit where this was originally posted to where there are rebuttal to the author's claims? http://www.reddit.com/r/vim/comments/1aq1lx/just_use

People often mix the words sentience and sapience to mean the same thing. Mice clearly can perceive and feel things but they do not show the intelligence we call sapience.

using '/' (search) comes to mind. Drew also did an episode cover some more ideas and touches on relative number moving. http://vimcasts.org/episodes/long-range-line-duplication/

But as Drew points out in his post, moving by by word (w,b and e) and by character search (f,F,t,T) is much faster the arrow keys or h,j,k,l. The article isn't about not using h,j,k,l completely but encouraging people to use those other key

I completely agree with you. But once I found this interest setup where you'd map the caps lock key to ctrl/esc and then the ctrl key to cmd+alt+shift+ctrl. That mapping can act like another modifier key. Aside from some games, I have yet t

Drupal 8 is talking about using Twig, which my guess is very likely. Twig is made by the same people that start Symfony 2, parts of which Drupal 8 is going to be using.

Forstall may have been trying to do a move similar to what Jobs did when he returned to Apple. Jobs lost confidence in where the company was going and sold all but one of his shares. The maps may have called Forstall's "bluff".

The author was criticizing their colon cleaning product. My guess is he assumes most people outside of Romania have not heard of the company's name. It does bug me that he never mentioned them directly by name in this post.

With most of those products you mentioned, I can see some sense with them. I would say the Windows Media Center is the most successful of those examples. The Kin is only one I can say made no sense for the same reason the nexus Q doesn't ma

Yes, I did notices that. Sublime is very tempting but the cost and having a workflow that I'm happy with stop me from using in a project atm.
