One thing micro does very well is scrolling like GUI editors. It doesn't move the cursor with the scroll, and it will 'snap' back to where the cursor was if you begin to type. Always hated how other terminal based editors move the active cursors down/up on scroll.

I know there's much bigger things in this release to be excited about, but I'm so happy they're allowing trailing commas in function args/params.

Any example repos of this? This sounds fantastic.

Damn, this does look great. A lot of what it does can be solved by using `withRouter` from react-router, but I really like how they use `<Fragment />`

Aaaaaaaand revoked.

It's crazy to think I probably exercise way, way more restraint on clicking that kind of junk than most, and even I can recall a time in the past year I just couldn't help myself. They're so psychologically predatory.

That's the nature of a rant, no? It's not a persuasive argument, or an essay. It's the frustration felt in a moment lived.

I didnt see anything for the stat I was most curious about - Quality of Question.

i'm comfortable using ffmpeg, i just wish people would share their secret formulas that can:

    - take a video of varying format (mov, mp4, webm, mkv)
    - give it the desired output resolution
    - give it the desired output quality preset (simple will do - hi, med, low)
    - output resulting file(s)
    - do it fast

i have a giant shell script of ffmpeg commands i've used in the past, but i have to stop myself from getting sucked in to trying to understand the whole process and losing a whole day at work

Any catch if it does away with needing the `-webkit-` prefix for CSS yet?

This reads suspiciously similar to a get-rich-quick or multi-level marketing pitch

Handy!

Quick UX improvement I can think of:

Make the movie title an anchor to the page's IMDB instead of the score. Or both!

I would love more discoverability for Github - but can't help but think this doesn't reflect what is "trending". Github does, fairly accurate, show what's trending - I think it's just that trends in software development can fatigue and annoy a lot of developers.

From what I understand, creating an algorithm to reflect what is active/popular/well-supported and well-contributed, without creating the over-saturation/bubbling/reddit-like effect is hard to do, and doesn't necessarily get easier with a large data set.

I hope someone more clever than myself can come up with something, though!

chrome's dev tools are anything but stagnant but the browsing experience has not innovated much.

I can't tell if there's legitimately more of these articles going around, or if I'm just noticing them more because they reflect my personal desires. Like the Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon when you get a new car.

Love that guy, his channel is so great.

Sometimes I think it appeals to me (and engineers in general) because spending so much time developing software... when not working on front-end/UI, it's all intangible. Just abstract bytes cast into the void. I need to make things in the physical realm more often.

I had to resolve a dependency before the installation worked (wxPython) on OSX. Worked via `brew install wxpython`

i actually liked "MEGA". the acronym was meh, but "Microsoft Mega" has a nice ring to it. probably would have gotten some flack at release (sega mega drive, etc) but overall i think the best out of those listed.
