8 years after EditGrid.
oakaz··on This Isn't Capitalism, It's Growthism, and It's Bad for Us
you guys are poisoned with a lot of thrash that make no sense. and here is your receipt:

1. Go to Bulgaria. 2. Get a bike. 3. Bike to Barcelona by following the Danube River.

And see what the fuck capitalism is.

It's the root of evil that turns villagers to slaves of companies that makes profit by filling everywhere with corn fields.

oakaz··on What I learnt bootstrapping my startup from Thailand for six months
Turkey. It's cheap, the variety and kinds of food is incredible and there is no racism at all since all western and asian cultures are mixed there. And the universities are completely free in Turkey, which leads the middle class grow faster and provide the companies dozen amount of engineers every year
oakaz··on What I Love about Mozilla
1) The web should be open should not mean that you can not create an app that is able to stream videos with different kinds.

2) It creates too main-stream web browsers. A non-profit organization should be encouraging browsing new experiments.

oakaz··on Bluebird – A full-featured, fast promises library for JavaScript
Yes, I can explain: the source code is horrible, readme is horrible.

What it does: not clear.

How it's different: not clear.

Project name: bird?!

Modularity: Poor. one single JavaScript file with hundreds of lines :(

Duplicate effort, nothing new but more confuse.

I'm just tired of seeing shitty Promises libraries. And I'm a huge hater for those.

Here is a good one that I liked: https://github.com/puffnfresh/fantasy-promises

oakaz··on Show HN: Introducing Harp – A static web server with built in preprocessing
I benchmarked static servers in NodeJS, using couple of different libraries such as "st" etc.

They're 7 times slower than a static site server that I wrote in Go.

Forget comparing with Nginx.

oakaz··on Bluebird – A full-featured, fast promises library for JavaScript
I code and enjoy JavaScript for years, and rarely feel like my heart feels feels squeezed when I look at a JavaScript library.

Call me hater, but, I would never use it and anything depending on it.

oakaz··on Show HN: Introducing Harp – A static web server with built in preprocessing
The idea is cool but I would never serve my static sites with NodeJS. Don't ask why. Benchmark it.
oakaz··on Show HN: Hiro – Fast and responsive notetaking meets semantic search
It's amazing. I currently use AIWriter and it's not available on web.

Hiro meets all my expectations. Great work. Thanks!

oakaz··on A bachelor’s degree could cost $10,000 total. Here’s how
Sorry, but, what the fuck are you talking about?

Do you know the amount of the universities that you can study for free?

Dozens.

and I mean: no fee at all. I studied in three of them. And one of them was a great university with a lot of foreign students. Teachers were quite good. And I was also served high quality food (much better than the garbage you pay for every day) for free, every morning, noon and evening.

Open your eyes bro. Not so many people are able to pay thousands to the schools. And my point here is to tell your kind of god damn middle class; start considering everybody.

Don't be one of those fucking selfish dicks.

oh, dude, seriously, there is no school outside of US, right?
oakaz··on Idea to App in 2 weeks
6 weeks: http://multiplayerchess.com

built it 3 years ago after I had quit my job and came to SF

oakaz··on A bachelor’s degree could cost $10,000 total. Here’s how
10.000? Is this affordable for people who make no money? We're talking about people aged 18-22. Do they make money? How the hell is it fair to elect people by the wealth of their families?!

Come on people! Don't you see the huge discrimination?

This system is a blood sucker. Please demand a real change instead of dealing with it

oakaz··on Show HN: pure client-side Connect Four AI with Web Workers, AngularJS, Firebase
It's quite strong. Thanks for creating this.
oakaz··on Nginx Is Taking Over the Internet
Either Nginx and Apache is pain in the ass to configure. No need to mention both have some unix challenges that you gotta solve for just starting to serve bunch of stupid shit. Have a look at boxcars
oakaz··on Nginx Is Taking Over the Internet
Let's consider boxcars also: http://github.com/azer/boxcars
oakaz··on Purecss.io – A set of small, responsive CSS modules by Yahoo
I hope it'll help Yahoo to fix the new shitty design of Flickr.
oakaz··on The Future of Programming in Node.js
index.js is not a default you need to include in your package. you better go read and experiment before making bullshit. JavaScript is a language with multiple platforms and NodeJS is just one of them.
oakaz··on Hyperloop: Why can't we believe in the big ideas?
I already pointed hyperloop is the big step, these are small steps that we also should make.

As I observe, nobody responsible is giving a fuck to the problems of bart. A friend I met almost threw up in the 16th bart exit since it's used as public toilet. Aren't we paying half amount of the money we make to the government? Then why can't we push the city government to fix the bart?!

oakaz··on Hyperloop: Why can't we believe in the big ideas?
Hyperloop is a big step that would take at least 20 years to try. What San Francisco needs is simpler and smaller steps to fix transportation. Here are suggestions;

1- Allow private & small mini-busses.

2- Provide the community hanging out near the bart exits in Mission better public gathering places so we don't need to smell heavy amount of pie every morning.

3- Make screens in bart and stations that show the upcoming trains, current train, route etc.

4- Ban smoking, eating, talking loudly, and leaving garbage in the trains.

5- Replace all the seats with smaller ones like all other subways have.

6- Replace shitty Subway shops with good hipster alternatives that people actually enjoy.

7- Improve ferry transportation between east bay and san francisco.

8- Establish shuttles.

oakaz··on Hyperloop
Does the government give it a fuck?
oakaz··on Go for System Administrators
Yeah it's much better than Python but not good enough also. We should still talk about a better and safer module system in Go community. People do their own versioning by forking repos - this is pain in the ass. We need a good module system with versions; like NPM.
oakaz··on ElementaryOs Luna released
And, why isn't it on Github?
oakaz··on ElementaryOs Luna released
Payment screen is HORRIBLE. I spent 20 minutes on it. I use my debit card anywhere else except this website saying me "you typed wrong address".
oakaz··on ElementaryOs Luna released
which distro do you use?
oakaz··on ElementaryOs Luna released
Does it play mp3 and movies without requiring anything to do?
oakaz··on What makes Lua tick?
I wrote some Lua couple of years ago but can't see any reason to use it since from that time.
oakaz··on CSS Absolute Centering
It's still impossible if you'd like to center a div that resizes itself depending on the content.
