Could have sworn Ketamine was classified as a dissociative. Maybe I was wrong.

"Explicit" option is only option

While I understand why folks voted this down, but it made me laugh. :) I never thought about the NSFW filter, but I believe domains that fit my full name were taken when I registered the domain.

When I was a little kid, my last name was a problem because of the times I grew up in, but nowadays it only leads to hilarity. Plus it's short and easy to spell. ;)

As other folks have mentioned, the issue is that many people looking to hire just look at your GitHub page and your repo list.

I didn't mean to devalue the challenge of implementing and testing a new feature. All I'm saying is that it wouldn't require much problem solving. It'd just be a sorted list, perhaps with the ability to reorder and resize items with some JavaScript. The GitHub devs are obviously skilled coders, and have many JavaScript ninjas among them.

Thanks!

Solidarity with all developers planning to protest

This is one of the few clones/memes that gets better as it is propagated.

As a 2013 Ford Fiesta SE owner, I can attest to the poor quality of Microsoft's SYNC system. I was so frustrated that I even wrote a blog post about it some time ago. I would have even more negative commentary now.

With Simple, there are no ATM fees at any AllPoint ATM, and they are everywhere.

Hell yes! I saw a prototype at PyCon last year and this is just awesome, really great stuff. Glad to see Python continue to evolve.

It looks like you're missing two states.

Well hey, this isn't Vim/Emacs! False advertising! ;)

Use of caps lock as control.

Well, it's an alpha, so it's not really comparable yet. It's safe to say that it lacks some "probably expected" featured.

I don't know about now, but when I tried it a month ago, it lacked an options menu. Clicking "options" on the main menu opened a dialog with placeholder text. Maybe they've added one now, but I didn't see one skimming the updates list.

FINALLY people fixing the tools instead of creating wrappers around them! Thank you Mozilla!

I like knowing which tweets I've read. If it says that there are new tweets, can click it and see the new tweets appear. If they just appeared on the feed, I wouldn't know as easily which tweets are new. Does that make sense? I guess I just like being able to load the new tweets on-demand.

Damn that site is gorgeous yo

Windows only? Are you joking around?

"That’s the passive aggressive look of Twitter telling you that there are two more tweets to show, but also refusing to actually show them. That would be too useful to their users. Instead, they want you to stop what you’re doing and click the button to load the new tweets."

I dunno, I actually like that feature.

Any plans to open source / apply a free software license?

Anyone know of some open hardware that does this same sort of thing and works with existing software?

"Setting up a Windows build environment"

... what? Why would they only support Windows? Why would they even suggest Windows? Why at least not offer information on Linux, where I'm sure a large percentage of folks are contributing from? It is a FOSS project. You should develop it with FOSS software, such as Linux.

In what way do the nice appearances and animations suggest reality? :P Still funny.

Very uncool. Google's association with Chromium is why I still recommend FireFox over Chromium, even though they are both open source. Now that I see this, I'm glad I do.

I don't think that Intro is the right way to go with our privacy.
