This is bad code as he said.

So with 300,000 I get something like 10,000-15,000 pageviews which is pretty much nothing.

They also have tons of money for advertising so they had a superbowl ad and many TV ads so I think maybe a large amount of people that don't know what spotify or rdio is have heard the name beats before.

Emacs has gotten better because of XEmacs, vim may get better because of newvim, but that won't be possible here unless you want to contribute your time for a closed source project and hope that whoever sees your pull request chooses to merge it.

Here's hoping they change their mind and perhaps develop a few useful paid extensions or something like that instead.

It works for Mactex without fucking with the system folders.

Otherwise if you click the sign in link you get: Designer News is a place where the design community meets. Registration is open 12PM to 3PM Eastern or until available accounts are exhausted.

Either that or it is something I don't run into. I don't play games really but I haven't noticed any frame lag when scrolling.

If you are really lucky you could probably even find a job that will let you go to school part time while you are working which would be the best of both worlds.

You don't have to attend school right away but you'll probably lose all momentum to go as you age.

My VMware Fusion linux image has the option to use full retina resolution which doesn't work well yet because linux isn't really up to par on dpi scaling, but it also has the option to use the faux resolution 1280x800 (or whatever it is) which comes out looking a little blurry but okay to me.

If you still have your ultrabook you can look at this image at it's normal resolution (not scaled by the browser) and see what the blur looks like http://i.imgur.com/QDdoWNM.png

If you're developing for multiple platforms chances are you already use some other toolkit with platform specific bits mixed in, mono is only useful if you are a .NET developer and then decide you want to port apps.

I'm guessing the smallest DO may have more competition for disk IO than the smallest Linode or the DO box could have had aggressive neighbors while the Linode didn't.

Otherwise give up on ppas (they may or may not work on debian) and look at maybe open build service or something.

Mint i think is compatabile with ppas but mint is very not vanilla

People only ever used C when speed was crucial and depending on what you were comfortable in or what you had learned maybe Fortran for speed instead of C.

Julia is meant for scientific computing with some nice features. As I see it it is similar enought to Matlab to be easily learned by those who use Matlab but has enough goodies that it can be a viable alternative.

Programming isn't about being specific it is about accomplishing a task and many times yes you don't want to have to worry about the details as long as it works the way it should.

Can DO's pipes handle a sustained load of whatever a 16core 48gb ram machine can handle without their pipe being the bottleneck?

If not maybe that is part of the reason AWS can charge so much for bandwidth.

Matlab you have .* ./ .^ and probably more and for good reason.

I don't really see it as being awkward it actually very useful when needed, can be confusing if you're learning a language and think .* might be dot product though.

Seems to have some logs of the linode channel today.

Edit: you can see here maximum file size is 250mb without paying https://www.box.com/pricing/

I can see if you are a worker who enters accounting information all day or have data entry with your job for extended periods of time how it would be invaluable but for what is regularly done on a computer I don't find myself needing it much anymore.

If I did need it I would probably buy a number pad to hook up to the computer (there actually looks like a huge selection for usb number pads for under $30).

There is a very strong bias to everything YC.

The HN community has also outgrown the software HN was built on you can see this in threads like: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7051091

but even that thread is an extreme many front page items that gain traction are hard to go through because of things like lack of foldable comments. Other things that are extremely noticeable are expiring links which pg has said he doesn't think are important enough to fix. There are many small UI issues that won't be fixed for the community.

I've been using android for a while now but with the need for everyone to have their own UI on android and the lack of carrier updates I think if I can't get a Nexus phone for my next phone (would be a carrier issue) then I would probably go back to iOS.
