edditoriaon Show HN: Sublime Merge – A Git client from the makers of Sublime Text

Cmd+T/1/2/... for tab will be great and it is one of main consideration for my workflow. Btw, nice work!

edditoriaon Microsoft to shut down Wunderlist in favor of its new app, To-Do

So sad and need to find/create an alternative.

For me, Wunderlist is well done in offline access, super fast sync and a battery-friendly Mac app. I sometimes work in some place that does not allow internet connection, e.g. warehouse where phone signal is screwed, or some meeting rooms just block the signal due to their privacy.

In many years I still cannot find an alternative. May be Evernote(?)

edditoriaon Offline First – A Better HTML5 User Experience

And me too. Meteor becomes my most favourite development framework in 2016. The ability of offline and data sync are some-kind of "by default" once I start a project, or just a simple test on idea.

Plus, packing it into a desktop app is lightening fast. It is a "wow" factor for potential clients.

edditoriaon The Steve Jobs email that outlined Apple’s strategy a year before his death

Talking about the "Digital Hub concept", I heard that from a Microsoft guy in 2005(?) introducing the concept of Microsoft Home Server. We were considering anything to cooperate (actually, it is only in marketing way). However, I was afraid that web 2.0 was the true future. Home user didn't need a home server product.

I love Mac, no doubt. But I do think Microsoft create a lot of great concepts and do test it on market. Apple is not the first eveb on consumer market (remember the WinCE products and XP Tablet Edition?)

In my opinion, Microsoft is pioneer of electronic products. Although they often made their final products "unusable", I would hear about what they "are going to do". It is worth to project the future.

p.s. sorry about bad English

edditoriaon Atom 1.11

No. It only lasts for 5.5 and 6.5 hours at 28% battery.

The machine was in sleep mode in day 1, but I forgot to put it to sleep mode before closing the screen (I hate this the most at OSX 10.10) in day 2. You can see that there is a little bit different between 2 charts.

This machine is MacBook Air 13" 2013. The battery goes down to 86% design capacity (7150 mAh) according to coconutBattery.app

edditoriaon Atom 1.11

The git integration is superb. The status shows on the UI just enough for me.

When I use Sublime, I miss `terminal-plus` so much. And `pigments` works better too.

edditoriaon Atom 1.11

People said V8 is power hungry and drain the battery so much. A few days ago I forgot to bring the power adaptor, so I have no choice but run on battery. Then, I try again today. And here is the result:

Day 1: Atom and Google Chrome: https://mobile.twitter.com/Edditoria/status/7858488116043776...

Day 2: Sublime Text and Safari: https://mobile.twitter.com/Edditoria/status/7858488116043776...

I didn't disable any packages and extensions, because I need them for daily work. So the result represent what I actually need. I also intended to avoid activities other than coding and checking email.

In short, Sublime Text and Safari survive longer. But Atom and Chrome are usable, at least.

For me, I will continue to use Atom and Chrome. Because Atom is more direct and user-friendly to me, and I feel much better on Chrome Dev Tool (sorry but feel better than Firefox). Another reason is that I can show others who want to learn programming. The licence for ST is not cheap for them.

I know 2-days testing is not enough, so would try again if I can.

First time to comment here. Sorry for bad English.
