This comment is so well written

I am very unhappy that 1P is moving to Electron for macOS for the reasons people here have reiterated a million times. I am actively looking for alternatives now.
mirthflat83··on Installing Windows 11 on Legacy BIOS Without Secure Boot
Yes. They’re copying macOS. Apple decided to change their numbering with Big Sur
mirthflat83··on Apology
It is.

I can bully you like him and I just have to say “Oops, sorry I must have had a bad day and I hope you’re cool with my apology”? Cool deal

tldr: “I can’t remember clearly but think I had a bad day, sorry dude lol”

mirthflat83··on “Please don't add any of my stuff to this project”
Just because you are legally allowed to do so doesn’t mean that you should. Hopefully you have a similar stance towards Amazon’s behavior in the OSS community.

mirthflat83··on USB-C is about to go from 100W to 240W, enough to power beefier laptops
You either have a fake cable or a USB 2.0 charging cable
mirthflat83··on How Intuitive Are Macs Really?
I have honestly never felt the need for snapping for almost a decade. Just use multiple monitors if you really need that screen estate
mirthflat83··on Learn CSS
> This history lesson is not really relevant for newbies.

I disagree. Knowing the context and motivation behind why a certain technology was created is always helpful for learning.

mirthflat83··on Scaleway announces measures against abusive Chia plotting and farming
> For some odd reason the 'Chia burns out hard drives!' is getting repeated as the fashionable fud.

No one is claiming that Chia is burning hard drives. He is intentionally being misleading. Chia absolutely destroys consumer SSDs.

mirthflat83··on "I’ve kept silent on the Apple situation; they broke silence, so will I"
Looking at the replies, it seems that people's hatred for Apple as a company is benefitting him on Twitter court of justice
mirthflat83··on We’ll stop selling our Code Editor app for iOS soon
Obviously they’re going to disable the touch screen if that happens.

Since they’re deliberately marketing that the iPad has an M1 chip, I think they have dual booting in mind for the future
mirthflat83··on Why did OpenDoc fail, and then fail 3 more times?
I watched this video more than a dozen times over the years and never realized he was talking about OpenDoc haha
mirthflat83··on AirTag Teardown Part One: Yeah, This Tracks
The x-ray image looks like Apple's spaceship campus

IP67, size, and design. Your comment is more of a facepalm moment.

mirthflat83··on iOS 14.5 delivers Unlock iPhone with Apple Watch, new privacy controls, and more
What a terribly not secure phone then.
mirthflat83··on iOS 14.5 delivers Unlock iPhone with Apple Watch, new privacy controls, and more
Sorry, it’s not. Face ID: Just pick up your phone and your phone automatically unlocks with your face. This experience is way superior than having to position your finger at a specific place every time you want to unlock it. Putting it on the back is even worse, you need to actually pick up your phone from the desk just to unlock it. I swear HN readers would create devices with the worst UX possible.
mirthflat83··on iOS 14.5 delivers Unlock iPhone with Apple Watch, new privacy controls, and more
Yeah what a hilarious suggestion. Might as well just not lock your phone at all.

You’re holding your iPhone too close to your face when you’re in bed.
mirthflat83··on Prisma – ORM for Node.js and TypeScript
Lmao. This happened to me too no joke
mirthflat83··on Prisma – ORM for Node.js and TypeScript
Prisma 2 is a delight to use. Gave it a try after typeorm-model-generator’s author suggested using something else than TypeORM. Prisma blows other JS/TS ORM libraries out of the water. It integrates so well with VS Code
mirthflat83··on US, Europe 'unrealistic' in fab expansion drive, says TSMC chair
You don’t become a leader in this industry by being naive. HN readers are being naive believing that TSMC really meant what they said. Anyone with a brain knows that the US wants to reduce reliance on TSMC
