I've been using it for months and I love everything about it. Thanks Rubjo!


You’re very welcome, it’s a joy to hear that it works for others as well :)


Played around with a bit. In my experience compared to a configured vim:

- once you have your local language servers available it works quite nicely out of the box. syntax highlighting, file finder, lsp navigation, formatting, etc. just works

- its fast

- i really like having the order of selection->action instead of action->movement

- im still missing some features like a navigation tree and a quickfix list or something to do project wide find/replace.


I've been a mac user for 12 years, have my current retina macbook for 4 years, consider myself a pro user and want to buy a new "mobile computer". I'm no longer considering buying an apple macbook. OS X is great but with these prices I can no longer validate it's value anymore and looking into buying an xps.


I would love to see Dell publish some XPS figures before and after the new MBP announcement. I see a lot of people say they're considering one.


Yeah they've completely lost me with this update. Want a 15" model with 16GB RAM and a 512GB SSD (i.e., something that will last a reasonable amount of time)? Toss in AppleCare and you're looking at $3K. I have a mental barrier at around the $2200 mark -- I could afford it, but I just can't justify spending that much on a laptop with fairly pedestrian specs.


For me as well. It becomes unresponsive so I can't even debug why it's so slow.


Were doing a coupling to a soap backend. It has been 7 years since I last did .NET and now I've decided to never go back.


SOAP and WCF is a very scary thing. We're in the financial industry and many of the systems we integrate with use .NET and SOAP/WCF.

Although Visual Studio does all the heavy lifting for us via 'Add Service Reference', the sheer amount of boilerplate code generated when integrating a SOAP service is terrifying and bloated. We hope to migrate to ASP.NET 5 but we're not sure how well connectivity with SOAP services will be supported. One of our partners actually requires us to host our own SOAP service based on a spec they provide.

However, for our own APIs we use ASP.NET Web API and build REST/JSON APIs as highlighted in the stack page (http://engineering.gopangea.com/stack).


.NET WCF to another WCF integration is fine, but if you try and hook a .NET SOAP webservice to one written in Java, and you'll have pulled all of your hair out after two weeks. The reverse is just the same. They all have slightly different implementations of the specifications.

Make that one week if you have to start dealing with the monster that is called WS-* a.k.a. WS-WTF.

I wrote an article on this many moons ago. It is still one of my most frequently read posts: https://benpowell.org/supporting-the-ws-i-basic-profile-pass...

It just goes to show how many SOAP integrations are still going on in the "enterprise".


This makes doing layouts in css so much easier. I can't wait until we can drop al the grid frameworks and use this instead.

Another good explanation on CSS-Tricks: http://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox/ Browser support: http://caniuse.com/#search=flexbox


Wouldn't you rather use CSS Grid to replace grid frameworks? http://igalia.github.io/css-grid-layout/


i drew a penis and got the "male sign" :-)


First thing I drew too lol


I got a "Downwards harpoon with barb left beside downwards harpoon with barb right"


I'm very fond of his sequel gem. The source is really great just to browse through and learn from.


I agree. Everything Jeremy makes is absolutely brilliant.


A CS 101 student apparently writes the most readable code.


Has time to think.


It's slower than the mathematician's, and does not handle all error cases. No wonder it looks cleaner.


Except it is not correct.


I like how both the student and the Startup hacker mess up bounds-checking, except the student doesn't realize it in the initial case, and the hacker misses it as the codebase gets progressively larger and he or she gets more tired.


I don't get it, what's incorrect about the code?


Try calling the function with 0 or a negative number.


ignorance is bliss


And when including timings you could easily calculate and optimize build orders.
