Tbh, I would be very much in favor of this. I know it's not a popular opinion, but things that pollute this much should not be the easiest/cheapest solution.

Nice! Too bad I didn't find a way to save/share a good one (some mountain landscape, etc.); maybe that's not the point?

I prefer gitlab too but github is where most projects are, and that plays a overwhelming huge role on deciding where devs (and so other projects too) will be.. :/ It could change, but would require a pretty huge fuck-up or a lot of time and many not-so-smal mistakes from github.

... why did it never occur to me? x)

Small issue: your last sample has a copy/paste mistake, it says `[master 2fe1ef8] first line` with "first line" instead of "commit title"

Yeah, other than keyboard/touchpad this looks perfect (especially matte screen and really good RAM). My current laptop, a Dell Latitude E7440, has many shortcomings but got this right and I have a lot of trouble finding a replacement because I don't want to give up on all that:

* centered touchpad (edit: well, kinda)

* touchpad with physical buttons below _and above_, including a _middle button_

* trackpad, though I don't use it much

* no numpad so there's more room for the rest of the keyboard (it's a 14" laptop) and it feels great

* arrows slightly out of the keyboard layout, with adjacent page up/down

* keys feel great, but I guess that's common now

Some more notes:

* old-school docking system, which I prefer over usb C and such

* (this one's a con) weird home/end button position, but nothing serious

Sorry, but I really cannot be sorry for Airbnb. I'd actually be glad if Airbnb goes down.

It has made life so much harder for people needing to find a home (either property or long-term rental), made prices go up (sometimes insanely), wasted so many housing in cities. I'm not even sure I find their business really "legal" as it's not so much different from hotel trade (not sure of the wording here) and could be considered as unfair competition.

Of course if it means loss of job for people working there that's something I am sorry for. But I have great hopes they will find another great job.

Surely you can allow specific third party cookies for a specific domain, right? (I don't use safari so I don't know for sure)

Hi, this sounds interesting! I may find a use for this on both personal and work projects (if I manage to test it before getting a paid plan).

However, I think you should consider non-mac users a little more:

* tickgit CLI would really benefit from basic instructions on how to use it outside macOS

* tickgit.com looks ugly on other OS (on both firefox and chrome) because of unneeded scrollbars on a lot of elements

I am more into Material UI too (I am even maintaining bindings for a language that transpiles to javascript), but Ant Design's dark theme almost got me, it's really nice

Got the issue too, it was not related to my browser but more likely to my email client that replaced more & with & than needed and broke the link. Edited the link manually and it worked.

afair they already produce more electricity than needed and run their plants something like every other day (read here on HN, but don't have the link atm) because they can't store the excess.

Sorry but I don't understand what you're asking

Yes, and that's why I pointed out compatibility with Adobe Animate (formerly Adobe Flash)

There are other flash "replacements", the one I like the most being Haxe [0] (transpiler to flash bytecode, javascript, and more) + OpenFL [1].

OpenFL replicates flash API [2], can work with Adobe Animate (formerly flash), and can use swf assets [3]. There are also converters from AS3 to Haxe, both available and not yet released (like the one used to migrate Forge of Empires [4]).

Haxe + OpenFL can export to flash player, HTML5 but also to native (desktop, mobile, consoles).

I was a little annoyed at having to hunt for this information too, but scrolling the README.md a little, I found this [0]:

> At the moment, only mysql is supported.

Seems like I won't be able to test this for work since we are on SQL Server. Too bad.

Looks nice! Seems like a good fit for interfacing with map tools like [0]

Latest tweet by @gitlabstatus said "We've identified an issue with database connectivity", which could explain why so many services are impacted.

Yes.

I'd still recommend learning about one of those frameworks to anyone aspiring to be a skilled front-end developer. Not because it is essential to master them, but because there are interesting concepts in there that could help with front-end applications development.

That's not a similar set of comics, those are reposts from commitstrip

I had that too. Also they were negotiating down every last estimate while we were doing "planning poker" which was only a façade and was really us committing to unrealistic man-hours estimates unwillingly.

My comment applies to cars too (if not mainly to cars). I'm not blaming pedestrians (I realize it wasn't obvious at all), I'm blaming all that ignore rules on the road and make these safety rules even less efficient because of the unpredictability. (edit: though of course cars & other vehicules make it far more dangerous)

I'm not a fan of cars already, but people driving cars while following safety rules only when it suits them is what make them a lot more deadly imo.

No. I don't care if a security system is not highly efficient in letting everyone moving around. It's not the point anyway.

That's the kind of thinking that makes our roads so deadly. If a rule in particular seems really silly to you, file a complaint / suggest a change so that it takes more parameters into account but until it is changed, stick to it. Loose some seconds or even minutes, I don't really care. These security rules should be followed by everyone, and people with your line of thinking shouldn't be allowed to own a car.

Some ants living in sahara. I think I saw that somewhere on hn recently.

Exactly. The answer isn't public transport, but adequate public transport.

Of course if we ban cars we can't expect everyone to use a bike instead, or to rely on current public transport network. Train, tramway, metro, bus (, something new?) all need to be vastly reinforced (something between 10x and 100x maybe?) but there's room for that once cars are out of the picture (both from roads and parking space).

Cars are convenient, but not efficient at scale (and too dangerous, for now at least). We need another solution, and I think it has to be radical to really work. But then, banning or greatly reducing car use in cities will be a tough one..

Shouldn't this link to https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/issues/41769 instead since it's redirecting there for discussion?

In what way is it misleading? The original title and abstract are beyond my knowledge.

It's common here in France and it wouldn't surprise me if it was considered safer; however I highly doubt it would be safer in countries/states where cars don't expect this to happen.

I had an accident two months ago where something similar happened:

I was waiting on my bike for an opening at a roundabout (rotary for US?) and the car behind me who saw me (he later confirmed it) started looking for a good timing to drive into the roundabout too and forgot about me.

He then started accelerating to drive into the roundabout just behind another car while I was still right in front of him. He completely destroyed my bike (which fell under me so I could walk aside and be safe) without noticing anything.

So.. yeah, the "see bike, say bike" rule seem nice and not a big deal. Please consider trying it :)

Definitely. I still have some series to read, especially the dark tower from Stephen King which I already started, but I think I'll re-read the whole commonwealth saga in the near future.

I'm a huge fan of Hamilton's books but I have to agree this one was.. different.

I think I liked it in the end, though not as much as his other books, but can absolutely understand people would dislike it.
