EpicDavi··on Show HN: clip – Embeddable, composable [c]ommand [l]ine [i]nterface [p]arsing
I was thinking the exact same thing. I had to read the text out loud in a European chef accent to understand what it was talking about. It really obfuscated the underlying meaning/simplicity of it for me.
EpicDavi··on AWS CodeCommit
My uncle is a DevOps person and said all of the new tools that Amazon is rolling out would put him out of his job if they caught on.

I know what thread you got this link from, OP... dirty, dirty, dirty :)
EpicDavi··on Towards a Vim-like Emacs
I read the title as "Toward a Vim: like Emacs"; was confused when the article was talking about making Emacs like Vim instead of vice versa :/

Android Studio is based off of IntelliJ which is owned by JetBrains.

It looks/sounds more aesthetically pleasing without the capitals: Intertechtion.com
EpicDavi··on IntelliJ IDEA 14 Released
I called them and there was a policy change or something. Customer service was really friendly. Now my choices include registering for an educational license or renewing as an individual.
EpicDavi··on IntelliJ IDEA 14 Released
I bought the IntelliJ when it was not free for students around March last year. I got an email saying I could upgrade to an individual license as if I had already purchased the individual license. If I want to upgrade to IJ14, would I need to buy an upgrade or do upgrades last for a year after my purchase?
EpicDavi··on A programming language in 450 lines of JavaScript
Just a semi-unrelated comment:

The Fibonacci code example classically has a horrid runtime. Will like likely crash your browser when supplied a number higher than the low thirties. IIRC it has a O(2^n) runtime and can be improved either by a bottom up approach (non-recursive) or a "dynamic-programming" (OOohhhh, buzzwords) method where you use memoization (memo table) to store (or memoize) results.

EpicDavi··on The First Browser Dedicated to Developers Is Coming
I remember people arguing in a thread a while ago about the financial longevity and user-base sustenance of FireFox. Many were arguing that FireFox needed something fresh and different and also needed to identify their target audience.

When Mozilla releases this, which is at least remotely intriguing, many are quick to find small deleterious criticisms.

The fact of the matter is that they are not removing the earlier dev-tools and nobody is forcing anybody to migrate to it. They are just trying to make another tool to help people. Honestly, if you put these arguments in any other context, either software or real life, they sound absolutely ridiculous.

EpicDavi··on The First Browser Dedicated to Developers Is Coming
The recent developer tools improvements/additions to FireFox in the nightly (and maybe aurora) have, in my opinion, surpassed Chrome's.

EpicDavi··on Ask HN: What small webapps do you know that have a large audience?
Jesus Christ, there really needs to be a warning on that.
EpicDavi··on Whats Wrong with Markdown
This article is just condescending and gets nothing accomplished. Its like me writing an article titled "Whats Wrong with Cars", where I list my complaints about cars: "People who don't drive cars won't know how to use them", "People use cars for purposes other than the creator intended them for", "Cars are Non-Standardized (Stick Shift, Automatic, etc)".

It's just annoying that he/she isn't providing any solutions and is just being a Negative Nelly. Why not write something like: "Whats Wrong with Cars and How We Can Fix Them". All I got from the article was "Cars suck, all the people who use them are just 'cool aid' drinkers".

Also there are numerous typos, such as: "...it woudl look like this:"

EpicDavi··on Ask HN: Is there any repo includes any “Hello World” projects you want?
This (https://github.com/leachim6/hello-world) repo has a lot of languages and many are being added. However, these are mostly print lines and do not contain examples for specific libraries such as OpenGL (As far as I know).
EpicDavi··on Standard ML Family GitHub Project
I took this class two years ago and loved it. Of all the instructors of the Coursera classes I have taken, Dan Grossman is easily the most interesting and engaging. Highly recommend.
