Most computer users don't understand or give a damn about managing their file system. It seems like many HN users do, yet clicking on the "go" menu to see options and keyboard shortcuts available when they want to go to a folder is too confusing for them.

Re:Everyone’s stealing jokes online. Why doesn’t anyone care?

Stealing a comedians joke is similar to stealing a developers source. I'm surprised at some of the responses here.

The argument, which you just agreed with, is that "You can't pay with bitcoin at Newegg" just like you can't pay a US company in euros.

Re:Checkboxes that kill your product
on Tuesday October 21, 2014 @10:06AM (#8487370)
This attitude is extraordinarily hostile towards users, and even if it wasn't including checkboxes in preferences (especially when you have things like about:config) that disable the entire functionality of the app for 99% of use cases is ridiculous.

Re:How Apple Pay works and why it matters for developers

Apple is a hardware company. Google just releases as much software as they can and sees what catches on since any additional user spending additional time being tracked is a win for them. Apple writes software to make their hardware more appealing.
Bad android sales doesn't affect Google. Bad iPhone sales would tank Apple.

on Sunday August 24, 2014 @10:09AM (#8218581)
Comparing the startup scene in silicon valley to fashion is actually very apt. The loss of life and pain would be devastating, but lets not think that a few billion dollars worth of hardware would be anything other than a tax write-off and some middle managers pain to deal with for the next year.
If you want to look at devastating datacenter loss, if anything happened to Northern NJ the markets would go into a tailspin.

Re:VimR – Refined Vim Experience for OS X
on Saturday August 16, 2014 @12:41PM (#8186703)
I love the negativity in many of the responses here. Obviously people like native apps. Macvim is a thing. Emacs has a gui version for os x. Sublime is a thing. This is a polished port of macvim that has a file drawer, which is a feature that many people want baked into macvim. Browsing complex file hierarchies and large projects isn't great inside a terminal, and is a giant hurdle for many new users of vim.
If this isn't for you then fine but don't rush here to proudly proclaim how you don't understand the point of this. I don't know why anyone submits their pet projects here.
