Hi, my name is Jano González, I work for SoundCloud and I'm from Chile, so it hits me when I see latino americans been stereotyped. I don't know if we ever met, but blaming things on people with a specific nationality it's super fucked up dude, please don't do that.

Shameless plug, here it is my own advice regarding conference speaking: http://janogonzalez.com/2013/12/02/conference-speaking-how-t...

I will shed one tear for Starbucks

Hacker News jumped the shark xD

Then it's time to switch to MacBook Pro?

You paid for the opportunity to read it first than the rest :)

According to Wikipedia (I know, not the most reliable source) a Kōan is a story, dialogue, question, or statement, which is used in Zen-practice to provoke the "great doubt", and test a student's progress in Zen practice.

The main themes in this particular article are that Vi is not a silver bullet, that even using a great tool you can do a lousy lob and that tools are just tools.

So more than an "incoherent flamebait" this is a list of Kōans about Vi created by someone that uses it and other Unix tools on a daily basis (as you can see on his other posts: http://blog.sanctum.geek.nz/)

First, get familiar with the language solving all the Ruby Koans http://rubykoans.com

Then go through the Rails Tutorial http://railstutorial.org

Finally, read Eloquent Ruby by Russ Olsen and The Rails 3 Way by Obie Fernández

this keeps coming home once a year :P

We need to start "finishing" stuff

Much better than Xvid

Short answer: No

Long answer: The computer you use is just a tool. To be taken seriously you need to have an impressive portfolio of projects, you will be judged by your results and not by the tools you used.
