I agree with you, I use KomodoEdit for maybe 4 years and I drop it just because the release cycles became too quickly and "new features" keep me from doing my job. It really annoyed me.

I've tried Atom when it was an alpha release and it was ok, lots of bugs (alpha release, it's all forgiven), but ok.

It seems to be slower than ST, but I didn't use it enough to see if it really is slower than ST in a all day work.

I read somewhere that there is a beta release now, I'll upgrade and give it a try again.

I guess that people begin to talk about the dead of sublime text with the launch of github Atom. Since there are basically the same features and with a beautiful interface to manage the extensions, everyone started to look back to ST and ask: "Ok, what's your move now?".

I have almost nothing to complaint about ST, I've been using the version 3 regularly for a few months. Off course, I want new features (and a few bugfixes, damn you single quotes bug), but I'm pretty happy.

Probably they "think" (never thought that I would use it in the IT world) that you are running some torrent client or anything like that. It's very common in EU to use this kind of hosts to download torrents and avoid problems with the law

Re:JSON Editor Online on Thursday January 31, 2013 @06:05AM (#5144418)
I works, but I guess that some tweaks would make it better, like add Behave (http://jakiestfu.github.com/Behave.js/) to make easier to indent the code and a real time error console.

I know that twitter boostrap is a great tool to start a project and to prove the concept. I love the idea as a amateur cook and developer (not amateur :D), but if you want to reach a larger public (non developers) I think you should invest some time (and probably money) into a good designer (by the way, is a website where we could really "rent" a webdesigner? I know some where you coul rent a coder but not a designer).
Re:Rate My Startup: Snip on Sunday January 06, 2013 @12:39PM (#5016936)
I think that using bootstrap core without any kind of customization isn't the best way to get users. Add a nice logo, maybe some screenshots of the product features, and the most important, if you want to keep boostrap, customize it!
Re:Chimney burns your (console.)log to keep you warm. on Monday December 10, 2012 @07:10AM (#4898662)
I guess that it should give a better view about what it really does. Maybe a screenshot?
Re:One reason Gmail for iOS still sucks on Wednesday December 05, 2012 @08:48AM (#4876188)
I think that the main problem in the Gmail for iOS is that I can't configure the refresh time. For people who receive lots of e-mails it drains the battery so bad that it last only half a day.
Re:How to beat comment spam on Friday October 12, 2012 @03:46PM (#4646547)
I use this technique a long time and it seems to beat all bots (a medium website, about 100k unique visitors per day). It's easy, unobtrusive and just works :)
Re:Introducing the Redesigned Bitbucket on Tuesday October 09, 2012 @04:53PM (#4633879)
The old layout always makes me think that they don't give a damn to BitBucket. Seems that I was wrong. BitBucket is awesome and the new layout reflects this awesomeness
Re:Will Rails be the new PHP on Friday October 05, 2012 @01:45PM (#4617865)
seems that everytime that there is a comparison between Ruby and PHP, it turns to a personal fight
Re:Will Rails be the new PHP on Friday October 05, 2012 @01:23PM (#4617762)
I'm a PHP developer (damn, this sounds like I only use PHP, but it's my favorite one). I really like PHP, it's easy to learn, easy to deploy, probably one of the most documented language. But let's be honest, all this easy stuff brings people with poor or no knowledge. Probably if ruby or python were easy as PHP to deploy, we probably would see lame ruby and python code too
Re:Will Rails be the new PHP on Friday October 05, 2012 @10:30AM (#4617008)
Everybody knows that PHP is infected with bad programmers 'cause is an easy to run language. You have a mac? Just make a .php and you can kill some baby seals with you lame code.

Re:Why the World Needs Another Git Repository Hosting Service on Monday October 01, 2012 @05:41PM (#4599506)
Come on, there are many options in the market that suits well in every mentioned need, just to point, http://www.codeplane.com just right the same thing.

Ok, you can create a new service, but you shouldn't act like you're the only one around that do what you do.

For sure, and doesn't seems to be that hard to convert into SASS... It's a great project to the weekend :)

I really don't know why Starbucks shut down the Jonathan's Card, it was a free ads, Starbucks was still profiting...
