hit8run··on Things I can’t do on macOS which I can do on Ubuntu (2020)
Good luck doing iOS development on a Linux machine. The Mac is a polished system that also offers very good proprietary software that is hard to find on Linux. I also sometimes feel tempted to switch but the integration with my iPhone, iPad, appletv and all the software I bought established a very nice vendor lock. Also if I was to run Linux I seriously wouldn’t know what PC to buy that comes close to a MacBookPro or any other m1 machine (I’m open to proposals).
hit8run··on Zas Editor
Of course ;) bought a license but it lacks important features for me.
hit8run··on Zas Editor
Hey. I'm an Editor/IDE aficionado. This could be the start of a really nice macOS native editor. Panics Nova is nice but it is lacking good Go support. However there are many things to get right.

These things are needed in order to get competitive imho:

- Plugin API

- Plugin Marketplace

- Proper LSP (you seem to have that already)

- DAP Support (you stated you are working on it. Good!)

- Out of the box support for go-templates, css, js and html.

You already have a very good foundation from what I see! Keep it up. I'll buy I license just to see where this is going :)

What’s your business model?
hit8run··on Nearly 75% of US counties lost population last year as deaths outnumbered births
Awesome news. Maybe people can afford housing again?
hit8run··on Mercedes to accept legal responsibility for a vehicle when Drive Pilot is active
It's a bold move that signals confidence in the own system. If it works out others will probably soon follow. In 10 years cars probably drive fully autonomous.
hit8run··on Ask HN: Is Apple down?
For me in Germany: iMessage up App Store up Developer site down
hit8run··on Mac Studio M1 Ultra Teardown [video]
I don’t know about you but I find it extremely hard to watch this video as the guy is constantly screaming and faking emotions.
hit8run··on Nova 9
I know what you mean. I did a bundle install --path vendor/bundle and this makes the go to definition a little better because solargraph has trouble finding things outside the project itself. Try it and test if it gets a little better for you. But yes Rubymine is better in this regard. On the other hand I can't get the tailwind extension working in Jetbrains with the Rails 7 standalone tailwind. Tailwind extension works in Nova.
hit8run··on Nova 9
I bought a license some time ago because I want a native Mac IDE to succeed! I use Nova for Rails development and it feels quite pleasing.

I also use Jetbrains and Sublime but avoid VSCode wherever I can. Too many plugins and not enough out of the box combined with less intelligent refactoring (Jetbrains is unbeaten here).

Nova is amazing fresh air and whenever an update lands it’s like a little present and I get excited what’s included. It’s good and they are constantly making it better with every release.

> Oh please. DHH was not cancelled.

Oh yes he was. In the most awkward and cowardish way.

> He was simply asked to share the keynote with other speakers.

You know that's BS but wokey-pokey will always try to reinterpret.

> Please go hang out on 4chan instead.

I don't take advise from crybabies that are easily offended by everything. You cloak under the cover of being tolerant though in fact you are only tolerant as long as the opinion is their own. I bet you are crying now that you are not admin on this site so you can cancel every post you don't like.

hit8run··on Ruby Together
Ruby Together merged with Ruby Central. See here: https://rubytogether.org/news/2021-10-21-ruby-together-and-r...

I have my personal grudge with the people from Ruby Central. They organise RailsConf and this year they CANCELLED DHH form the Keynote because he is not woke enough in the eyes of the new governance there... It's a shame that they try to divide the community with this move.

Actually the same people that are advertising acceptance of others in every form somehow came into a position where they can cancel everyone that has a different opinion with regards to political topics or if they just don't like the fact you're a male white rich guy that likes fast cars and has a wife with two kids. The fact that he created Rails and pushes it forward every year? It doesn't matter to them because hey: wokey wokey wokey.

hit8run··on Ask HN: Any weird tips for weight loss?
Here is a short list of little things to adjust:

- Take just a little less calories in than you use (you don't want jojo effect).

- Waive soft drinks (even sugar free).

- Drink a lot of water.

- Start flexing your muscles from time to time (build tension in your body).

- Stand up.

- Do Push ups.

- Increase the steps walked per day.

- Take stairs not the elevator.

- Eat low carbs in the evening.

- Eat enough proteins (at least your bodyweight in grams).

- Read rails source code (it will cause your brain to go 100% cpu which consumes a lot of energy)

hit8run··on Apple announces 27-inch 5K Studio Display
I was waiting a long time for the release of an apple "Pro Motion" display and again they disappointed. There is no reason why they are not offering an ultra wide with 120+hz and retina. They are apple. They don't need standards to be ready because they control the whole chain and create their own standards. Steve Jobs never would have let them release that display with only 60hz. It's the same panel I'm looking at for almost 10 years (in different iMacs). I think about giving up on retina and going ultrawide with high refresh.

This is so sad... Love to everyone that has lost someone.
hit8run··on Big tech makes a big bet: Offices are still the future
Then go to your office and sit there parked as an employee spending your life in a cubicle. But don’t expect people who value their life outside to show up.
hit8run··on Big tech makes a big bet: Offices are still the future
May I ask if you are single living alone?
hit8run··on Big tech makes a big bet: Offices are still the future
Fully agreed. Now you can change your username <3 you’re out of it!
hit8run··on Big tech makes a big bet: Offices are still the future
In my experience lonely people are happy to go back and those with a life outside of work (family, friends, hobbies) are happy about the time they save not commuting in order to have more time for the things they live for.
hit8run··on Top Performers Have a Superpower: Happiness
I don't know about you but I for sure don't want do be a top performer in a job. I disrespect the societal applause you get as a good cog in an enterprise. Build my own stuff and be my own boss makes me happier but then reality hits in and all the cracks in our society begin to show. Seriously. I WANT to be happy. But how can one be happy in a world like this?

EDIT: Maybe I'm not in a good mood today but right now I find it really hard to stay positive.

hit8run··on Internals of Go's new fuzzing system
Nice feature. But that string reverse example is exactly one thing that annoys me in Go: the lack of higher level batterie functions for strings, maps and slices.

Thanks but no. Facebook and Instagram are already deleted on my phone. WhatsApp soon to follow

I use standard.rb as a more opinionated and saner approach.
hit8run··on Life at 800 MHz
I like the new 16inch MacBook Pro but for sure prefer my iMac Pro and am looking forward to replace it with something new presented this year. Life is too short for crappy hardware.
hit8run··on Conversation-Based Pricing
Intense pricing. I dislike FB and everything Mark Zuckerberg does. I don't even use React because it is their toy.
hit8run··on Bingo – The missing package manager for Go binaries (Homebrew for “go install”)
Maybe a bit off-topic but does someone know of a good code scaffold generator for go? Something like rails new, and rails generate?

I wonder how many parties will be going to tap that wire.
