If that's a representative example of how you mangle the English language, In not surprised.
What's your problem with pink certificates?
Which is why I sleep in every day, not just at weekends. Problem solved!
Nothing [apart from click-bait] to see here. Move along, please.
Article body: "...if you've read this far, you know the Surface Book isn't twice as fast or three times as fast as the MacBook Pro 13 in all things. In this one game, however, at these settings it is..."
Clickbait, pure and simple.
What I get annoyed by are the people who ARE native English speakers and who can't be bothered to spend a few minutes proof-reading what they write, or learning a few trivial grammatical rules ['your' vs 'you're', 'there' vs 'they're' vs 'their'] but yet expect the rest of us to struggle through their lazy, mangled prose, trying to extract meaning from it.
Why the fuck should I? If you can't be bothered taking a little time to check over what you write, before spewing it onto the internet, so that it makes grammatical sense, why should I put in valuable on time on your behalf, deciphering your blatherings? You've already shown me you don't care enough about what you want to say, to make the effort to express yourself clearly. So I'm not going to care enough to bother reading it.
Why do you keep flogging this dead horse?
It's fundamentally flawed because there is no relationship between neighbouring / nearby addresses. Thus totally and utterly worthless as a location / navigation system.
Resubmitting it to HN every few months won't change that fact.
The only hard fact in the article seems to be that Github is a Ruby on Rails app.
What happened was stupid and an over-reaction. But equating it with the Charlie Hebdo massacre is an insult.
Jeezus! —I lost count of the grammatical howlers in that piece, by about the third paragraph. Hint: learn the difference between a comma and a full stop. Then read up a bit on sentence construction.
