i really love these launcher apps.

this one sort of illustrates the problem with developing windows apps:

- you either learn complicated c++ and windows api and have to write your own rendering framework for custom components

- or use C# and xaml and get terrible performance with systems with no gpu acceleration

- or use VB for terrible performance and CPU usage

- or use javascript and node for huge memory usage and slower rendering than c++ (VB has the same issues)

your the better programmer but heres my suggestion.

webscript that picks a live streamed security camera that occcasionally has a people walk by it (ie street cam), based on the users location/timezone

and then asciivideo that in the background of the stream

might try this if i have the time :D. very cool stuff btw

i think the pull-left pull-right code example is missing the pull classes. very cool, will give it a try

yea but if its a slowdown when you press the fricken enter key it obviously affects some. its not like atom has < 100 users, it has thousands.

pretty good fix.

they tried castration, lobotomy, and drilling a hole in the persons skull to drain the blood (they had no power tools so a hand crank drill)

on children. on teenagers. on the old. and on the stupid.

to cure voices...

you dont know what your talking about guys.

were talking about elective surgeries, that people could not refuse, and testified later to the supreme court they were done without permission, and sometimes tortured or beaten if refusing the surgery.

eh skimpy article, plaintext passwords and packet injections

(tbh i always assumed packet injections were hard as fuck, but i guess when your office is in the telco its ez)

i figured out how to remove the nsa from the internet for those who care. its very low tech... we simply unplug their line, and we keep unplugging them. or more clearly we pressure other admins to unplug them from the network, and use our admins to actually work for us not the government. with resistance, we would probably have to unplug lines to companies with admins who refuse to unplug nsa lines. i think it could be done and i think its lovely if it is. i think the public would a) love the idea if they are knowledgeable and b) flip the fuck out when their internet goes off cuz the admin wouldnt unplug the nsa. all in all a fun shitstorm, and a decent technical problem when we have to route the entire internet somewhere other then a telco with nsa offices.

its interesting that it could have been done along, and could at any time be done. we just lack the will.

Fake and gay.

Founder of psychiatry drove around in a lobotomobile for 40 years giving lobotomies to haunted people for $25 each.

(With an icepick) (Check the movie/wikipedia lobotomobile)

the treatments since then have gotten only slightly less barbaric, like being tied down for 20 hours a day, or drugged and locked away.

still none of their bullshit has worked. and 75 - 150,000,000 cases of mental illness today (if you add the un-reported cases estimate) aka 1/4 the population (maybe 1/2).

cool. gj.

nice website btw

taxes, paperwork, and lawyers and agreements

its like one extra set of forms at least if you have employees out of the country

care to link the position? im looking for exactly that job :/

its probably fair.

gamers "flip their shit" when ping is not steady, and are only happy at ~50ms response times. a 200ms response in video games is usually considered "unplayable".

My original gripe was simple, if I declare bmp = class() should I really have to tell the compiler what the return type is? ideally no.

its now in 4 spots (header, function definition, and two spots on the same line in case the compiler cant find those?)

also they added a ^ operator so thats cool.

but I guess my gripe is every time I want a different taxonomy function I have to page up to the top of my CPP and type 42 keystrokes. (also I think I might have been missing an extra taxonomy there and its really 5 namespaces deep.)

this was how i felt reading the helloworld for windows 10. very good point.

for example from the same page: to print "Hello's" you actually have to type "Hello&quot;s", (I assumed you cant use \' anymore)

most of those are either made in the spirit of unix where one tool does one thing

  - gulp and grunt are for handling multiple js scripts and all your folders of js scripts, makefile stuff

  - ill assume webpack is for minimizing js

  - bower and npm are package managers, while npm is just node modules, bower can do some cool stuff like install jquery or bootstrap into your local public_html folder

  - es6/ecmascript is a standardized featureset of javascript that people are working on. you can use it now, but you have to install babeljs, and use expirimental option in chrome

there is yeoman.io and yo that sets up skeletons for the dev environment

there are 'base fiddles' ex 'react base fiddle' that can get you going. there is also bower and docker vm images with skeleton projects. also there is a lot of skeleton projects on github.

(its ez to breakdown a base fiddle and see whats needed to get the dev going)

from the windows 10 hello world:

To make your window resizable (!) and responsive, use the following XAML

    <VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
	    <VisualStateGroup>
	        <VisualState x:Name="wideState">
	            <VisualState.StateTriggers>
	                <AdaptiveTrigger MinWindowWidth="641" />
	            </VisualState.StateTriggers>
	        </VisualState>
	        <VisualState x:Name="narrowState">
	            <VisualState.StateTriggers>
	                <AdaptiveTrigger MinWindowWidth="0" />
	            </VisualState.StateTriggers>
	            <VisualState.Setters>
	                <Setter Target="inputPanel.Orientation" Value="Vertical"/>
	                <Setter Target="inputButton.Margin" Value="0,4,0,0"/>
	            </VisualState.Setters>
	        </VisualState>
	    </VisualStateGroup>
	</VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>

theres also this gem:

    bmp Windows::WinForms::XAML::Imaging::Bitmap = ^new Windows::WinForms::XAML::Imaging::Bitmap(filestream)

can try different front pages

i would try:

i would talk more about 1 type of coffee (say the most popular, or your favorite), convince someone to drink 1 cup in a paragraph and put that on the front page.

try just put 1 cause on the front page with your blurb "support multiple causes" or "choose" or whatever

(this is like a/b testing right, so whatever sells more we go with, improve and test again, if it doesnt sell more revert)

i read a nice blurb from a advertiser, he said he tested selling watches in New york times. most advertisers put 5 watches. he put an add with just 1 watch, and sold 1000% more watches than the other ad.

a good thing about a business like this is you can rebrand it and have 2 websites 2 company names and ship the same product. set up a site with a diff name and no cause stuff, and try to just sell the coffee. (tbh i like the cause stuff, but this is an idea, maybe its something else also)

you can get feedback from a few customers if possible (just send a hand written email? if you feel like it you can offer discount or free month for response or something.)

i would ask what made them purchase. and then i would ask someone to visit your site and tell you why they wont purchase.

one thing that i dont like so much is the outside pics. i dont associate the poor black kids and the dogs with drinking coffee, so maybe a lively pic of a wonderful home kitchen with some coffee. or maybe a pic of a coffee shop would sell better.

the website is very nice and call to action is clear though so gj. many business struggle for the first 12-18 months as far as ive read.

How do you suppose they were converted to Islam? By peace or by threat? You just said it did not spread by peace. So if they were farmers before that?

yea. i think thats an extremely valuable service

pl0x (plz) bring the clion features (refactor and more) to the go ide/plugin

that thing is sweet

author here, this is not tested very well but i hope it works if you use it! happy new years everyone

also im resubmitting just to try to get it to go to the Show hn page... last time it did not... IDK why, can delete if you feel im spamming and want to delete.

i was considering writing an IDE, could you please explain what refactoring tools are necessary/lacking from any ides that are not Visual studio

happy new year

i dont think so php is finally fast, has a lot of features, can run in shell without timing out, etc.

and i would say be careful because when things are perfect they tend to get deprecated because people stop working on them. (not necassirly perfect but close). good examples of this currently are lisp, java and php, (and systemd, wayland/mir, ssl, pgp, etc?). while they replace it with technology with more bugs and less features, so be careful (cough cough nodejs and tls).

of course your title was sarcastic. long live php :>

why is this not in my ide already? should be a key selling feature!

i spent a few days to try to improve my ux

- vertical spacing matters. use more than you need when in doubt

- typography is important: http://practicaltypography.com/typography-in-ten-minutes.htm... and practicaltypography.com is so good.

- icons need labels, sure you know what your favorite icon means but users do not, use labels.

using code to generate code? pretty cool.

another way to think of macros is functions that can take code as a param

    #define filter (a,b) ...
    filter(list, { v % 3 == 0 })

i got good suggestions from reddit.com/r/crm if you dont find it. gl

just to point out they were threatening aaron schwartz with 50+ years when he killed himself. he just downloaded medical journals from the campus networking closet.

these guys were corrupt officials engaging in, hacking, conspiracy (RICO laws), theft, destruction of evidence and probably blackmail and money laundering and tax evasion.

6 years.

schwartz was a political activist, these guys were just dirty special agents. thats how the book is thrown.
