Came here to hopefully post or see ctrlp fuzzy search for vim. When I didn't see it recommended I was shocked. It completely changed the way I interact with my files while I develop.

The Parallella project will make parallel computing accessible to everyone.

I think their marketing is a bit off on this one. Does everyone actually need parallel computing on this scale? I don't think so. Those who do need it likely already have CUDA running on GPGPUs. Not that I'm implying stifle innovation but the crowd they're marketing to seems to be way off base.

17 year olds may be able to do all of those things, however we know that the average male's forebrain doesn't fully develop until much later, as much as 8 years later. Some males aged 25 still have not developed to the point of advanced reasoning. Reasoning like being able to see the consequences and harm done by stunts such as sending threats like this. It's certainly not enough to dismiss this and say "he's 17, he's not a child anymore".

I'm not saying that it being your main language is bad, it's just the syntax is absolutely terrible to read and understand for those of us on C-style languages. If the point was to teach others, the vast majority of your audience is not going to be reading coffeescript and learning much.

Out of all the languages to choose from it just had to be coffescript...

Same here. Colour games can be frustrating for us differently-coloured people. :P I can imagine how this is really fun for someone who can see colour properly. Maybe as a challenge the author could include colour blind mode?

> But can we cut out approximately 90% of the fury?

You have to realize this app existed in the apple-sphere. The user base is part of a very entitlement based generation for the most part. That's why there's so much rage.

If you love markdown and ease, I created an online editor for markdown.

http://md.jesse-obrien.ca Source is on my github account.

You can save and edit(fork), and it gives you live (1-2s delay) formatting.

It's actually Ctrl + P on Windows. I think the author made a typo.

Siodine's account is older than yours. You're rageing on him for trying to help you out by suggesting you find plugins before dismissing ST2. You're making an ass of yourself man. Stop acting like an elitist prick.

The small link "About SSL Certificates" points to Symantecs sale page for certs. Definitely know what SSL certificates are after reading that... /s
