I don't like his attitude in the public eye but at least he's self aware and not afraid to say it. That does take courage.

If this was the Chrome dev tools I'd be very very happy.

I'm generally pretty open about using web technology outside the web, but come on guys, why do we need this?

Stop this MS h8 shit m8 if anything, MS will bring some stability to that company. Right now it's just a bunch of children making shittonnes of money for an indie games accident. They didn't work for it, they got lucky. Notch just

It won't happen though. The minute that Apple closed off the Mac, with the Mac App Store being the only software source, the minute that idea might have a little credence.

If they can make Vim feel more modern and allow plugins to integrate better, I'd be very very happy to move to this software.

Why would they waste money on a high tech insulin sensor barely anyone will use?

Yeah this article is completely awful and was most likely written by someone without any security knowledge whatsoever. Considering the number of victims, all of the possibilities discussed in this article are completely unreasonable. There

So you won't complain if your family are killed in front of you and the police don't do anything? GG dude this is why everyone thinks anarchists and the like are fucking dumb.

There has been, like PCLinuxOS. The problem is that it's not just the interface keeping people off GNU/Linux, it's everything else, like software and hardware support.

That sounds painful. Ever since I went to Win 8 my shutdown has been instant. Startup is around 3 seconds.

Chill out dude it's called progress and it's a good thing. The web is fundamentally different now than it ever was and software is very different. If you wanna go back to 19diggedey-two theres always ancient operating systems or G

I want this but I also wanted the leap motion and got burnt bad. This does seem objectively more useful though. When old mate turns the device towards the projector screen and used it as a touch screen was awesome.

I appreciate the point the writer is trying to make, although I wouldn't exactly consider Vim the bastion of usability. It's incredibly expressive though and once you learn a few rules you can wield a whole lot of power. I'd

Back in the day there used to be a lot of flash games like this on Newgrounds. Clicking through fake OS's is very nostalgic.

Having used the Baidu Android software, it's really really nice. I'd love to see a version in English.

Going on around '09 it was pretty common to have pornography posted with the same type of swirl or other manipulations. It was a game to undo it, using a particular piece of software.

I just ignore everything dripfeed myself new tech that looks good until I find something I like. Don't everything shown off on HN too seriously, but pay attention.

Since Y Combinator has been redesigned, I hope they redesign HN and make it responsive and modern.

Yawn, just a typical engineer who can't understand CSS. Go back to the dinosaur languages like C and Haskell and leave the web to the smart guys.

There are a lot of 8" Windows 8 Tablets that can already do basically this. No wireless display but you could do a docking station that provides power, HDMI and USB, then use bluetooth mouse and keyboard. I have a Motorola Razr (Androi

So Y Combinator has gone from 1995 to 2007, wow so amazing guiz. Maybe try again and we might get to 2012. Does HN even use CSS? Probably try that next.

I know what you're getting at. At home I develop with C# and use the debugger all the time. However, I'm a PHP dev at work and we can't connect to our dev server with debuggers. We have all sorts of various tools we built for

Wait so that wasn't the point of using it? The author mentions custom OCR so I assumed he was using some sort of Gregg OCR solution.

I find that image specifically to be a bit uninspired, but the other, more complete designs are actually pretty good IMO. That said, I still like Oxygen, just not the taskbar design. I think they could have iterated on it and got a really r

It's got a lot of promise to be the best looking Linux desktop around. I don't really like the grey they use however; I'd lighten it up. But then you're in trouble of looking like iOS.
