Thanks for the feedback. I will plan to add an about section to the website so people know who made it.

Hi! I made ArcBrush. Never heard of Plasma Studio, and other than being node-based, I don't even see the similarity if I'm being honest.

I made it and I've talked about it publicly. It's not really that sketchy.

when whistleblowers start dying in not strictly organic ways the media tends to come down pretty hard on behavior like that

New comment by albiabia in "Netflix disables use of the Chrome developer console"

albiabia — Thu, 06 Mar 2014 01:50:22 +0000

Yes, the bottom line is that Netflix is sending you code executed on your own machine. You, as the user, should have full access to inspect the executed code. Obfuscated or minified code should only be used as a bandwidth saving device, and not to hide the true functionality from the user. If the browser is seeing it, why can't the user?

Disabling a feature of the user's browser is absolutely absurd. If you want to hide from the user whats going on then that code needs to run on the server.

Can you imagine opening an image in Photoshop and because of some flag half the tools disappear? Yeah, me either, and images don't even run code.

> I found it readable and straightforward. There's a bit to it, but eh, good enough to work through if I inspect elements etc.

I meant more from a performance perspective. It might not be hard to sift through to make a theme, but it seems like a lot of overhead for the core to continually process all that data.

> Package hell is true for anything is it not?

I guess so. Curation is always an option. But even just from a settings perspective, they are just all listed alphabetically in the prefs panel. I'm not sure what the solution is, but a stock install already has too many packages to manage.

I'd love to see a site just like this, but cataloging all the best Unix console tools.

It sounds ridiculous, but you can tell a lot about a console program from a screenshot.

New comment by albiabia in "A critical look at Atom.io"

albiabia — Fri, 28 Feb 2014 23:24:11 +0000

Anyone who has ever looked at the DOM structure of an in-browser code editor (CodeMirror, Ace) knows that they are extremely nasty. So much overhead. The markup characters outnumber the content by like 50x. While the speed of Atom is much better than I expected, it just doesn't feel native enough. I still feel like I'm using an in-browser editor.

Maybe Sublime has spoiled me, but that editor is pretty fast. It can open large files. It's almost as extensible, especially for any kind of practical purpose. Oh and it's cross-platform, which Atom is not at the moment.

I also can already see a time when we reach Atom package hell. Someone is going to have to come up with a system to manage all these packages pretty quick. When you are literally installing packages to add a single hot-key, and all packages are treated as equals, it quickly becomes very difficult to find what you are looking for to manage your install.

I'm excited and optimistic to see where Atom will go, but my thoughts before I tried it are only reinforced after a few days of use. GitHub does not mess around. I know they will fix most of my concerns pretty quick, but I'm not sure how much more can be done about performance.

This transaction is where everything went wrong. I think after the shutdown they tried to start paying out the largest investors manually and missed a decimal place:

1 BTC In and 10 BTC back https://blockchain.info/address/1CeGvbrAuLJYyKxX7T2KD3358dWo...

Someone made 10x their money.
