This is just pathetic. He’s acting like a jealous high school boyfriend.

Thank you for sending me down the rabbit hole of automating my RDWC system :-) Seriously, it's the blending of many hobbies into one! I've been eyeing the Atlas Scientific Whitebox T1 now as it seems to allow me to start small, learn, and add new sensors/probes.

I really wanted to like this website but I find the lack of password and magic links a very annoying way to authenticate to the website. I also imagine the magic link would confuse many users who are used to a traditional login form with email address and password.

I admit, this site caught my attention but I refuse to have to check my email, for a link that doesn't resolve behind my firewall, just to authenticate to the site (every single time).

Honestly, Goodreads without an account is more useful than this site with an account. At least I can search and read reviews on Goodreads without an account.

You too found The Flashbulb via what.cd? Soundtrack to a Vacant Life is an incredible album.

My first two guesses are usually AUDIO and RENTS if it helps ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Is this why I can't get last place? :-)

I wanted to see how many "levels" there were so I started to click the button repeatedly just to end the game. Then I noticed the "you did better than X%" message. I can't get first but can I get last!?

Even using keyboard events, it still says I'm better than 1%. Either someone is still...more wrong/faster...or 1% is the lowest it can go? Haha!

As in Firefox is not rendering content with Gecko, it's rendering via WebKit?

Are you sure...? I've been using Firefox as my default browser on iOS for awhile now.

My understanding is it's not going to prevent transmission but it can help in reducing transmissions, thus reducing infections.

You took the words right out of my mouth. I'm in the exact same boat. I use more than one editor but I always install the vim plugin. It provides an instant speed boost to using that editor efficiently and quickly. We don't switch editors _that_ often, but at the same time, remember trying to remember keyboard shortcuts for TextMate, then Sublime Text, the VSCode, then IDEA, etc.? With the vim plugins, editing text is now the same across all editors.

I don't know of a quick vim command that lets me quickly select, delete, replace, yank, or change the full contents of a scope in a whitespace-sensitive language.

I'm sure there are better ways, but you could v9G$ to select from the current line to the end of line nine. Or v9j select the next nine lines, v9k previous nine, etc.

This probably sounds odd, but I'd be happy with the subscription's yearly price, or even a little more. It's not the price that bothers me, it's the subscription aspect to me.

The application is sold as, "with data longevity in mind", but the subscription model makes me feel like that is only the case while I pay for a subscription. From what I read in some of your other comments, that may not be the case, but it's still a worry. What if I can't access my notes/data in the future unless I have an active subscription?

Like others have mentioned, I'm not a fan of the subscription model either. After watching the demo video and reading through your site, I instantly went to download the app in the app store, only to be disappointed in, yet another subscription.

I'd gladly pay for the software and repurchase at major releases (if I wanted to upgrade)! I'm not looking for more subscriptions though. Give it a thought. I'd like to be one of the paying customers :-)

I've been interested in the idea of a treadmill to walk while at my standing desk as well. Can you share details on the one you have?

I've kept my phone on silent via the physical toggle switch for the last four years and it's been a real game changer. I'm still notified via vibrations but receive zero audible notifications. It seems very odd at first but I'd have it no other way at this point.

So move/delete your old messages and attachments... I don't understand how is this an iMessage issue?

I have been through this exact process as well. Mine started to make the rattle noise and I used the chat support to get a replacement sent. Your credit card is "charged" in the event you don't send the broken headphone back. The charge is reversed upon Apple receiving the broken headphone. My replacement was free.

Out of curiosity, what do you mean by "mapping the world"? I haven't played Minecraft in a very long time, but I thought there was a built in map of some sort? I'd like to hear more as it sounds like we have similar play styles!

Maybe this is a sign of me getting older, but was I the only one to think, "go outside and spend time with each other instead of spending time via a phone app!"?

Perhaps I am no where near their demographic...haha.

This was my initial thought too. Why not just use an image, right? But, I guess if we always said that, where would we be now? We wouldn't have a lot of the amazing tools and resources we do today. Sure, it might not be fully practical but it doesn't hurt to research the problem and learn from it. :-)

I was thinking the same thing. Yes, the comments might look pointless when viewing source code on GitHub but really makes life easier with an IDE and documentation generation.

Sure, take out those comments, but then his next blog post would be about the lack of decent documentation available for various projects...

I had problems playing the videos but, really? I'm trying to determine if your rant is serious or dry humor...

"Try using Chrome on your desktop or Android device"... I am...

Quickly looking at the templates on the site, it seems that all of them include a picture. This seems like a bad idea and generally discouraged.

It looks like an internet connection is required for the demo. When I try to open it without a connection, I'm told my trial has expired, even though I've never used the software.

Is an internet connection required only for trial period verification or is this, always online, internet connection required, software?

I noticed this as well. Although I have seen the previous demos of Macaw, I'm very surprised there is no link back to their homepage anywhere on this page. This page offers very little information for software that costs $179!

How about some information about what potential customers are buying? Or at the very least, a link to where they can find this information.

Have a look Adminer[0]. It is a database tool, much like PhpMyAdmin but in a single file. It's user interface is a bit more bare but it is really handy when you just need a quick way to interact with a database.

I've always disliked GIMP's floating windows (especially with a tiling window manager) but never knew of the single-window mode. That is a great tip!

They seem to push the idea of the ability to build charts without JavaScript. On the other hand, I have to learn their XML markup. Is the markup universal in anyway or is it proprietary to their charting library?
