Sad, silly and stupid. A clear example of broflake syndrome.

"This article will delight newbies [...] For this article, we are using Python 2.7."

Suggesting Python2 to beginners should be considered harmful at this point: 2020 is just behind the corner...

neuromancer85··on Obsidian API: Mozilla's Alternative to WebGPU
WebGPU is just vaporware...
neuromancer85··on Discussions with Apple regarding license agreement
Time for ImgTech to go Linux/Mesa friendly maybe? With an open source graphic stack they could become a great choice for projects like Raspberry Pi and other hw manifacturers: imagine a Vulkan-ready linux laptop that combines a rpi Compute module with the graphic potential from their GPUs... Hope they would be this brave.
neuromancer85··on Ask HN: Which linux distro at home?
My choice is Antergos, an easy-to-install ArchLinux based distro. It is just a collection of cherry picked pkgs from Arch repositories, with fewer customization in comparison to Manjaro (also Arch-based). If you want a less "rolling" distro, Manjaro is a really good choice.

Nice idea! Is it iranian? Is there anything similar for Arabic?
neuromancer85··on A Gnome Developer's Arguments on Vala Being a “Dead” Language
Sad but true... The problem with Vala is that it has never escaped from Gnome orbit...

Maybe Zig[1] would be a good replacement for Vala usecases, one day?

neuromancer85··on It's time to admit Apple Watch is a success
Yeah, sure.
neuromancer85··on Ask HN: How do you deal with haters?
Stupid people's mom is always pregnant, so yes, it is normal to meet stupid people on internet as much as in real life. The only way to deal with them that I've found is: smile and wit. Use sarcasm to smash them to the ground while being absolutely polite. It is really satisfactory (and "super effective!).

Please tell me that this is some kind of (sad) joke...
neuromancer85··on Popcorn Time
Don't use this one, popcorn-time.se it's closed source and potentially full of spyware/malware...

Use the Community Edition based on popcorntime.io instead, its source is open on github!

It's so sad... We all lose today, while the violents and the machists just got their legitimation...

neuromancer85··on The “8th” Programming Language
From the faq (http://8th-dev.com/faq.html):

q) Are there any restrictions on who can use 8th?

a) Yes. Due to Israeli export laws, residents of the following countries may neither use nor purchase 8th: Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, North Korea, Palestinian Authority, Sudan, and Syria.

WTF! This is the very deal-breaker for me...
