Wow, you really have no idea what you're talking about

> As a result the failing-rate for the mentioned killer-subjects is dropped from 80% to 20-30%.

Do you have any links to back that up?

I'm not studying at TUM but I'd be really surprised if there's a 80% pass rate for those subjects.

Re:Unofficial guide to dotfiles on GitHub on Saturday December 12, 2015 @09:40AM (#10722877)
Looks really nice! I'll probably switch to this. I'm always annoyed that homesick doesn't automatically sync my local dotfiles repo with the home directory and I have to push to GitHub and then pull with homesick.

Yeah, Dropbox would be a good alternative for sharing screenshots, but it takes so incredibly long that it's pretty much unusable.

I'm German and I'd argue the complete opposite way. Older people here are totally more privacy aware than young people / my generation that haven't witnessed the Stasi.
Re:The most popular web sites every year since 1996 on Tuesday December 16, 2014 @01:05PM (#8758342)
Still really surprising for me. I would've thought Google search alone would easily outperform all of Yahoo. And then Google also has YouTube, GMail, Maps etc.

Is there a way to block Skype like that?

What does Microsoft have to do with Bill Gates recommending books (which is really cool by the way)?
jQuery might be directly cached but does that really matter? You could make the browser cache Minified.js after the first loading. And I'm pretty sure it's faster to parse / run a 4KB script than a 30KB script.
Re:tmux 1.8 Released on Friday March 29, 2013 @06:51PM (#5463447)
I'll actually help maintain tmuxinator now. :) The project is really awesome but the author doesn't have enough time for it, so he added me to the project a few days ago. I'll go through the pull requests soon.
Re:Terminology – a new terminal emulator on Monday March 25, 2013 @02:51PM (#5438850)
How did you install it? I'm on OS X, too, and make throws this error: "make: * No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.".
Re:Just Use Sublime Text on Thursday March 21, 2013 @08:27AM (#5414537)
> Vim: The Editor You Need To Read (At Least) Two Books On To Use Well

Seriously? I was one of the very early adopters of ST2 (befor net.tuts wrote about it), and configured pretty much everything. I switched to Vim maybe two months ago, and I was just as productive with Vim three weeks after switching.

I still learn about Vim features, and it will me take ages to really know it well, but it's seriously not that hard to learn Vim. The first one or two weeks are hard, but once you got the basic concepts, it's really easy.

Switching to Vim was completely worth it. I way prefer VimL over ST's JSON settings, and I'm generally faster at editing text.

However, Sublime Text is a great editor, too. ST + Vintage mode is really fun, too.

Re:Playhaven developer fired for sexual jokes on Thursday March 21, 2013 @06:04AM (#5414002)
Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with that woman? She could've turned around and told them to stop making these kind of jokes. That she made a similar joke before is even weirder.
Re:Show HN: Webflow - Design responsive websites visually on Wednesday March 20, 2013 @01:09PM (#5408623)
This looks awesome! :) I hope it'll be useful for designing my side project when it's ready.
Re:Show HN: Weekend project, Intro.js on Friday March 15, 2013 @12:06PM (#5381281)
The HN effect: Visited the project 3-4 hours ago, and it had 40 stargazers, now 650. :)

I really like it by the way, and I think I'll use it for my next project. How about some events though? Like `introJs.on('5', fn)` would execute `fn` when the fifth hint is shown. It could be used to introduce several views to the user (one page app).

Re:State of RSS Readers on Thursday March 14, 2013 @08:22AM (#5374452)
Sigh, I actually started building a RSS reader for fun five days ago. Now Google Reader is shutting down, and it seems like everyone is starting to build one.
Re:Antigen is to zsh, what Vundle is to vim on Friday March 08, 2013 @01:50PM (#5345004)
I started using antigen for my dotfiles (https://github.com/js-coder/dotfiles) a while ago, and it's really awesome. However it does make sourcing `~/.zshrc` pretty slow.

Re:Announcing the jQuery Plugin Registry on Thursday January 17, 2013 @12:47PM (#5073904)
Component is really really great. It's the hero JavaScript package management needed. :) When it's more mature its dom components will probably replace jQuery for me.
