In the form of periodically-interspersed sponsor posts which are explicitly stated as being such and which are never mixed with actual content. As feed monetization goes, its about as above board as it can get.

Of course, being as above board as possible would still not be good enough for the anti-Marco brigade stomping around this pale imitation of what HN once was. I certainly wasn't here right from the beginning, so no hipster douchbaggery intended by any stretch, but I swear to those who have arrived more recently: You have no idea how good HN used to be compared to this. Sad, truly sad.


What anti-Marco brigade? A heavily downvoted post and me pointing out that you would in fact get ads if you subscribed to his site via a feed reader? Dude has like half his posts hit the top here, HN loves him. A very, very tiny minority don't.

But yes, I like nostalgia too.


Not quite. Gitlab merge requests are very useful but only act between branches of a single repo, not across repos. Hence "merge" request, not "pull" request.


Seeing as we're splitting hairs... :)

In the Ruby version I wouldn't use that selector with any parens. The resulting line would be one character longer than the ObjC version but use the Shift key one less time and would avoid two pinky trips out to the square brackets. (unless I am miscounting)

All other things being equal between the two options, and of course they aren't but let's just keep splitting hairs for a moment, it sounds like a typing win for the Ruby option. Readability is of course in the eye of the beholder.


It pains me to feed the trolls, but just in case someone finds their way to this page in the future and actually tries to wade through all of the bullshit: Apple uses IPS displays in every product except perhaps the iPod Nano and/or Classic, and I only mention those two because I can't be arsed to check them.


Absolutely incorrect. The iPad has an IPS display, and I believe newer iMacs have IPS. Every single Macbook, Macbook Pro, and Macbook Air Apple has ever made has a TN screen. Most (not all) are pretty good as far as TN screens go, but they're still TN screens. I would love to see the source you found for Macbook displays being IPS.


I intend no ill will with this response, but it is worth pointing out that "the first two" "bigger issues" have nothing to do with your revision control system.

Lack of builds is something about which you and your CI server need to have a chat, and refactoring is something about which you and your people need to have numerous chats before, during, and afterwards.


Since no one else responded with this: you're right, it is not an accident that he would be considering 48fps, the reason being that a good amount of 24fps film projection occurs at 48fps on equipment that double pumps each frame. Such equipment (and the related equipment and processes around it) would likely be easier to upgrade/retrofit to 48fps than to 60fps.


Mono directly benefits their biggest competitor.

Mono directly benefits Oracle?


Your point is a very important one that I was surprised to find was not expressed by other commenters. It convinced me of something that was bouncing around my head while reading the article and the comments before yours:

If, as everyone seems to agree, movies are becoming more 'safe', more 'lowest common denominator' on average, reviews should be becoming _less_ polarized in response, not more.

That the opposite is happening suggests that reviews are progressively carrying less and less 'truth' than they once did, and this is likely the case even when they may be in general agreement on a given film.


I honestly doubt that the various Git-knocking commenters on this story have any real experience using Git on Windows. They are likely just parroting what they have heard about the early days of Git on Windows.

All of my Windows work during 2010 used Git and it was perfectly fine. The only thing that even comes to mind is that there was a tiny bit more effort with initial setup of SSH than on other platforms.


My mother suffers from severe (but now under treatment) sleep apnea and believe me when I tell you that if left untreated it could cause you far larger problems than wanting to feel fresher when you wake up.

Please, please, please see your doctor about the cause of your sleep apnea before treating its obvious symptoms with a device like the WakeMate.


Thanks for the sincere advice. :O) (I didn't want to give details for privacy reasons, but I'm already under treatment for it with a CPAP device. WM will not be a replacement.)
