Re:Smarter half tiling in Gnome Shell/Mutter on Wednesday October 04, 2017 @10:10AM (#15400552)
Does anyone else who does even basic half-and-half tiling feel like the majority of websites, even otherwise well-developed and popular ones, treat tilers as second-class citizens? I'm looking at you, GitHub, especially the ZenHub plugin. For a great counterexample of great design, YouTube.
Metaphysics is pointless nonsense.

"These are red flags unless this is correct in which case just kidding."

So why doesn't someone here verify the proof in itself rather than critique the author's typesetting?

That changes everything.

Gee, sounds like a fun PR to review.

I hope this is fake and some would-be scammers get scammed by a scammer.
Re:Wal-Mart Offers Linux as Windows Alternative (2003) on Wednesday September 13, 2017 @11:32AM (#15239229)
It's legitimately my favorite interface of the major OSs or the many choices of desktops on Linux. It has everything I want. And since they stopped having "hot corner" nonsense on by default, nothing I don't want gets in the way.

There's a trade-off still in that with Linux, often you have to spend time fixing things that you wouldn't accept to be broken on an OS you paid for, but at least you can often fix them.

Whereas on MacOS, you're stuck with the decisions Apple made about their window and workspace management, both of which I abhor even after giving MacOS a shot for a year.

Neither is right or wrong, but I feel the same surprise of GP. I don't understand how you could say "proper interface" as if there are no flaws.

My cup runneth over.

Ask HN: What to do when code review slows process down?

At work, code review is given a low priority for junior devs and PRs can age in the queue as more senior devs' PRs go through. This incurs a lot of overhead managing merge conflicts and is really annoying. What's a constructive way to approach requests for changing this?
