Maybe this is a good time to plug an extension I published which adds a convenient Google button to switch to Google after seeing DuckDuckGo results:

When scrolling with mouse, it feels convenient to have this as a button instead of typing it manually.

Re:The Makefile I use with JavaScript projects on Thursday March 01, 2018 @02:44PM (#16495458)
I searched and didn't find a single soul using Makefile to orchestrate a set of build steps. I have been doing that for a long time: `make test`, `make build_docker`, `make push_docker`, `make deploy`. Now suddenly everyone shows up in one place here. Long live HN.
Re:GitHub shouldn't allow username reuse on Saturday February 10, 2018 @06:58AM (#16346950)
I like the way gitlab approaches this. On gitlab if you change your username, the old username can't be used by anyone again.

I have faced this problem with github. I changed my username. The very next day, someone created an account with my old username and now all my resume, old profiles etc. were pointing to an empty github account. :(

Just use the Firefox Android nightly and beta build. The new UI is super clean and the performance is very good.

Up until this point I always felt that there was no good Google free alternatives for chrome mobile browser, but this perception has definitely change now with the new Firefox Beta build.

I am switching to Firefox nightly for my default Android browser now.

One IntelliJ Ultimate rules them all...

Once you use intelliJ IDEA, it's very hard to switch again, because there's so much that you feel missing...

I see what you did there with your own title: https://imgur.com/a/SthQV
