Note to people, the guy who submitted this is a jackass. This will not build a Chrome app for Mac OS X, it'll merely build some non-executable components.

I wonder if everyone insulted each other gratuitously insults would lose their impact, like cussing has?

Your post is misleading. You cannot build a usable application for OS X.

Given that this is hacker news, "build" doesn't just mean "compile an app that others have provided for you."

It also means build the application, as in, here is an effort that is in progress to create something, and would you like to lend a hand.

True, but in the context of "Jealous of Windows users and their Google Chrome?" it is certainly misleading.

I hadn't considered that. You're right. The title was inappropriately... loaded with opinion that was unrelated to the actual content of the link.
