How do you find quality mac software?

Like a decent editor, I tried coda and found it extremely limited no plugins, limited language support and no configuration. This has been my experience with all mac software.

Friends have recommended different software but when I tried to install it through iTunes I found the developers had went bankrupt or it was not available in my country, searching for apps on google seems to be a dead end.

I tried to find software so that I could use a normal mouse at a decent speed but again found them broken, relying on system calls that are undocumented. I found one which worked until I updated to Mojave but then they removed the system calls it used an it no longer works, so theres $100 down the drain.

Im not a fan of window but its so easy to just search google download it for free and it works your done.

Linux you just search your package manger download it for free configure it to do exactly what you want and it works your done.
Well, he is campaigning on KMT ticket. KMT is pro-unification.

(Funny considering KMT history, but that's how things played out.)
VS Code has some good features and rapid iteration but it is slow. Slow to start, slow to render pages when you switch tabs.

Sublime Text may not have BBedits ability with massive files but for 99% of the time it is lightning quick and rock solid.

As such, I think a natively coded Mac editor could nail the requisite speed but also enjoy some novel features beyond the spartan default environment of Sublime.

I’m looking forward to it.
At least for Quora (or rather StackOverflow for me) I could understand it as satisfying a need to be in a community of experts and exchange ideas on more fringe topics. Also it‘s probably a good thing to put on your resume if you have amassed sufficient fake internet points ;)

Amazon reviews however... you‘re just a drop in the ocean and there‘s certainly no community. Thus you‘d have to pay me if you want me to engage in this.
How can you "guarantee" this? First and foremost, the majority of Internet users don't like AMP, they just don't know what AMP is. Websites may behave strangely to them, and they just don't understand what's causing it. We, developers and hardcore techies, have the same problem, but we happen to know that the cause is AMP.

lol. you're right.
There is a simple explanation: Academics is not the primary focus at most top schools outside of perhaps MIT, Caltech and Chicago. When it comes down to it, their goal is to develop the next generation of 'elites', and the basic MO is to get a bunch of current gen elites and surround them with a cross-section of the society, so that their education is 'well-rounded'.

Edit: this comment, while obviously passing some judgment on elite schools, should not be taken as an endorsement of the parent comment. Admitting based on test scores has severe issues in a society where schooling quality and resources are so unevenly distributed.
You could just as easily have switched those words and that would make just as much sense.

Typed strings look really nice, something I tend to wish every language had eventually - though I'm not sure why you'd limit them to Strings and not allow them for all types? I really like the Logarithm example shown in the Dotty docs for instance: https://dotty.epfl.ch/docs/reference/other-new-features/opaq...
First, everyone go out of their way to break REST[1] caching by eliminating proxies from SSL (for some good, some bad - reasons).

And now we're trying to shoehorn it back in?

It used to be that a local caching squid proxy was a great way to make load times of various "front pages of the Internet" bearable on a shared low bandwidth uplink (local/national news sites etc typically being served from the cache/lan).

New ssl/tls kinda-sorta breaks that (there's no middle ground - either install intercepting cert that catches everything, or abandon caching on everything. Either cache CNN. com and medical records, email(webmail) and Facebook messages - or neither).

AMP might be a bridge too far - but some kind of (semi) public "signed, not encrypted" would still be a good fit for hypertext applications/documents - because of the caching benefits.

You have to explicitly opt into a Retina display context on MacOS in order to get a window into which you can render at high DPI (2x the physical dimensions). You cannot mimic this with transform matrices; the render target will be rasterized at low-DPI and interpolated.

So, yes, high-DPI issues very much exist, and GLFW does the right thing.
It costs money for each school you apply to. The fee is presumably to discourage this behavior.
Perhaps the founders were really just dead weight and were forced out because they contributed no value to the product.

What's so unique about instagram? Only thing I can think of is that it's popular. It doesn't seem to be novel from a technology standpoint. There doesn't seem to be any secret sauce for making it generate cash. What would you say, the founders did successfully after the acquisition? Given unlimited power, what could they have done?

I think the answer is not much. The founders did a good job at getting some capital and making a popular product. Mission accomplished. Time for them to move on.
I’ve spent the past two years building a non AI, non ML, human based approach to talent development and retention, so I can safely call BS on IBMs approach.

People leave for a multitude of reasons, and while some are more common than others, every person has unique motivations and needs that drive their choices.

Sometimes it’s money.

Sometimes it’s the commute.

Sometimes it’s the work.

Sometimes it’s their manager.

Sometimes it’s.......

We encourage companies to think about how to coach and train their managers to identify these needs at a human to human level, rather than relying on a computer to try to figure this out. Building a meaningful relationship between a manager and a report is critically important, and if you do this, you’re far more likely to know well in advance when someone is thinking about leaving because it’ll have been discussed.

The move towards quantifying employees is a bad one and will backfire long term if it comes with further atrophy of the important skills every manager needs to develop.

Shameless plug- I do free mentoring for managers every day of the week. Would love to help anyone out there who is a manager or leader and needs someone to talk to.

https://freemanagermentors.com

I also own a company that runs a remote cohort program for managers and leaders, which focuses on helping managers be their best for their people.

It’s my small way of trying to help make sure we don’t cede responsibility for being great managers to computers, just so we can say we “use AI”.

They have, since 2008. You're right about pace though, unfortunately rolling out change into bureaucracy is painstakingly slow.
Thank you for the tip.

The issue is not so much about the browser, as I'm an app editor (which happens to also sell tablets with our apps preinstalled to reduce friction). The issue is that apps that rely on the device certificate store aren't going to be able to use https with a server using a Let's Encrypt certificate issued with the new root CA.

Shipping a root certificate store would be (for my scale) a bad practice. I made the mistake of pinning a SSL key in the past, never again (you run into issues when your clients never even connect the device to the internet in 3+ years, and then your updater doesn't work anymore).

Fortunately for me, I don't currently use Let's Encrypt for my API servers, and that news was the last straw to make the boss decide we will stop selling Android 5 devices.

Unfortunately, this means our users who recently bought those devices will have some third-party apps might be broken starting 9th of July, and some sites will give a scary warning.
Definitely. TextMate was my primary editor at one point, and Sublime is still my editor of choice. =)

But, I think the bar has been raised since those days.

Sublime's been Jon's fulltime work for a decade, and has probably 20,000+ hours of work on the core editor, at least an order of magnitude more work put into its extensions, and certainly millions of hours of real-world use and bug reporting.

That's kind of the minimum bar that newcomers need to approach or exceed just to get into the game in 2019.

Unless they are bringing something totally different to the table. For example, Atom's Electron base has drawbacks but it brought a new level (or at least a new kind of) hackability to the game.

In Sublime and Textmate's case, they too brought something unique to the game. While lacking the raw power and configurability and pedigree of vim and emacs, they brought something of that mentality to the world of GUI text editors. And their minimal GUIs allowed them to be flexible and powerful in ways that full-blown GUI monstrosities like Eclipse could not be.

I think it's important to make a distinction between the English (and other language) terms for the holiday and the holiday itself. The holiday existed before the religion spread (or fully spread) to those regions and has a different name in Latin with no connection to Eostre (Pascha).

Now, the hares and rabbits and all, that's obviously not from Christian tradition or the Bible. That's clearly a regional adaptation of adopting a local tradition into the Christian celebration. This is a typical way to assimilate a culture. Reuse their traditions, but rebrand them (change masks of pagan gods or entities to be saints, change the parade to focus on the Christian symbols, etc.).
Your comment makes me cringe. Why not use all the world's resources immediately in the most flagrant way possible "if the future's always uncertain."

Being good stewards of shared resources is not "asking people to suffer today." You are right that it is not a fundamental right to have oil - so why do you get it all?
Please proof that claim. 100x faster never. And faster warming compared to which period. We are still in at the tail end of an ice age so warming is expected.
It's hard to over-estimate the cultural influence Lupin III has had inside and outside Japan. The original manga was a timeless masterpiece in its own right, but the animated productions that followed solidified its place into popular culture.

She won a medal which puts her at the top 1% but most athletes who go to Olympics or international championships don't win any medals but nevertheless have to through the same training and invest the same commitment. If she can't make it, it makes you wonder what happens to the rest who also saw their golden years pass by but without any medals or achievements to show off.
40 years sure. But 20? Was Zuck and his ilk that much more accomplished than the Harvard admit today?

I think the greater “problem” is that merit is impossible to define. The risk of not joining the elites at 18 should be lowered if anything else.
Well yes, but it‘s not like the flaky, moronic marketeers don‘t know people like you exist. So reviews just become another topic of optimization for them.
Hackernews needs a bot to correct people every time they incorrectly use the term "rent-seeking". Here's a hint: it has nothing to do with real estate. I see this term misused on a daily basis here.

>"More than 99 percent of all species, amounting to over five billion species, that ever lived on Earth are estimated to have died out. Estimates on the number of Earth's current species range from 10 million to 14 million, of which about 1.2 million have been documented and over 86 percent have not yet been described. In 2016, scientists reported that 1 trillion species are estimated to be on Earth currently with only one-thousandth of one percent described."

Unfortunately, there's a lot of resistance to using checklists, from the nurses to doctors. I wish they'd just swallow their pride and worry more about how to improve than how it makes them look when their mistakes become visible and explicit to the people around them.

"500yr of progress being held back by 500yr of tradition" is highly applicable to the medical profession. There's a lot of arrogance floating around the medical profession as well that tends to put a damper on anything that might reduce human error.

It's possible to build this message in Fluent with nested selectors, or with adjacent selectors. I built an example using Polish, since that's a language I know best. (To be 100% correct in Polish, I'd need to use a different possessive pronoun, but doing so would actually remove the double use of gender from your question.)

It's a complex piece of UI and consequently, the resulting Fluent message is also quite complex. But possible to build :)

I think the culture as a whole keeps moving away from formality, which I don't find to be bad. Many times, formality is just an inauthentic pretense meant to make people in positions of power feel comfortable. Clothing is a form of self expression, which employers don't want because <reasons>.

fwiw, the phrase "shirt and tie" in American English is understood to be a button up shirt (I don't think most people specifically call this a "formal shirt") and tie. The "and tie" acts as a contextual modifier since it's rarely assumed someone would be wearing a tie with a t-shirt or something casual.
Sure but would you want to rely solely on your direct and possibly only competitor?
> Why do you think this approach hasn't worked so far?

Because you are not actually jailing people, duh. GP has written about 3 stalls being used by drug addicts at the same time! Where the fuck is police watching? Drugs are ridiculously easy to come by, hence why I believe the police isn't doing it's job.

> Do you think if we only arrested more drug users the war on drugs would finally be over?

Yes. Currently USA is doing absolute jack shit and wondering why the war on drugs is being lost. It seems that everyone but the police knows about dozen of celebrities who are doing drugs on an industrial scale. There are people whose identity and fame are revolving around drugs, for example Snoop Dogg, why the fuck he's not in jail already? The guy was smoking lifetime sentence worth weed per week way before it was decriminalized. I'm not going to believe that you guys are actually having war on drugs until you actually start jailing high profile public drug users.

Strict and actual enforcement of drug laws works. Period. Singapore and Japan are effectively drug free. Off top of my head more recent examples are Georgia (the country) and Davao city, which have eradicated rampant drug use in matter of years.

For the record: I have absolutely nothing against the drugs and am 100% for legalizing majority of drugs. But I'm very against saying that US is actually doing something about the drugs -- it's like hearing a fat kid who is eating a cake right fucking now claiming that he's on a diet and has been dieting for a long while and the fact that he is still fat proves that diets don't work.
This is just semantic.

Avoid modems with Intel, specifically the various "Puma" chipsets. Best to double-check the spec sheet on whatever you buy.

"It felt anachronistic at the time "

The clergyman in the debate, Malcolm Muggeridge, was raised by super communist secularists around the turn of the last century! There's a link below which is a fantastic reference worth repeating [1].

Hyper secularist ideals are not 'new' - the largest war in history, WW2 was partly based on this (i.e. Germany v. Soviets). (And yes, only partly ... the Germans were super concerned about the Communists at the time, I'm not trying to start a big ideological thing here).

I doubt that secularists have any advantage on real progress, my take is that the Church of the past was simply a calcified institution, as all institutions are when they have more or less absolute authority and try to protect it. Moreover, most people 'outside' such communities tend not to understand them at all ... to the point of bigotry.

And yet we have material prosperity and 'freedoms' - we are more depressed and anxious than ever before.

Our 'national strategies' are fundamentally economic: build more homes, more Starbucks, more IKEA.

We live in a weirdly intolerant era - consider how many movies 'couldn't be made today' - and I'm not talking about 'mean racist movies', rather even films that tried to have fun with the issue. See: 'Blazing Saddles' one of the funniest and most sincerely topical films ever made about race relations. Could never be made in our new utopia.

Reform and progress are essential, but I think we're conflating and confusing a lot of institutions and ideas.

This position hardened for me while visiting the rural areas of a very arab/muslim country with super archaic traditions. We are not as advanced as we think we are.

The saga of how this checklist came into existence is detailed in Dr. Gawande's book The Checklist Manifesto.
I wonder could endorphins play their role. Production of endorphins are triggered by pain in the muscles when excercising, and athlete becomes accustomed to it and (as I heard) even addicted to a physical activity. When athlete stops her sports career, physical activity levels suddenly drops, so no more cheap endorphins. At the same time she face a problem of resocialization into "normal" lifestyle. Patterns in her mind know the only way to be happy, to work hard, to excercise and to win. I suppose it can be hard, very hard. Especially a first year after retirement.

But Twigg's case seems more complicated for me than that. Her lifestyle suspiciously in harmony with her mother kicked her out of home when she was just 16.
