Re:Ask HN: Mac vs. Linux for Development?
on Monday May 07, 2018 @06:26AM (#17011628)
I use Linux as primary platform for development (C++, Java, Python, PHP) and Windows as secondary platform, as long as we deliver products for Windows.
MacOS is irrilevant for us, as long as the market share in Enterprise field is really low.

About Google Drive, I use Dropbox, Box and OneDrive too, but they are on the same boat.
I'm abandoning Evernote as well, as long as they don't have an easy exporting tool

Where is the opt-out for reading GMail content? Or better written: why is the scanning of emails activated by default and not as opt-in? What about the preinstalled Android Google Services, which upload data continuously on Googles' Servers?

look at Hashicorp: all their products are opensource and I think it's not disappearing in the next years.
Packer, Vagrant, Terraform...they are largely adopted and it makes Hashicorp in a strong position

what about OpenJDK with OpenJFX?
Building by myself it's an overkill task (it requires Qt for Webkit), especially on more platforms. I think it's a pity there are no public available releases of OpenJDK with included JavaFX out there.
When Oracle will remove it in Java11, it would be even worse
