Good notes has an option to revert to v5 and I haven’t had any issues so far staying on v5.
I thought they also had a one time purchase option for v6 but it’s been awhile since I looked.
They did the switch better then notability tried to do. Notability tried to switch otp users to their new plane after a grace period of a year. They caved to backlash and added a legacy plan for older purchasers.
React is miles ahead of a bunch of much older frameworks businesses still use. I have projects being built new right now that use ui5 from sap. We have projects with spring boot with the templates in jsp.
I would much prefer a react project to ui5 or jsp. And businesses with long running projects tend not to like using frameworks that don’t have at least ten years of usage and thus some proven surviveability unfortunately.
Don’t know if it works for this but have you tried jdownloader 2? That’s what I use for most things. It can scrape pages and maintains a download queue
Anyone remember when Evernote added a limit to how many devices can be logged into your account on the free plan? I remember. I stopped using them immediately after that. Couldn’t be logged in on my computer, iPhone, and iPad.
Meanwhile Apple notes got much better so I just use that.
I have the complete opposite feeling. The more I have to use windows the more irritated I am at it. It’s bloody irritating.
It has window snapping; sure that’s nice, but the default window snapping isn’t that useful for a power user and gets in the way of better window snapping from power toys. On the Mac I also have a third party (better touch tools) app to get custom snap zones that is better than even power toys fancy zones.
But the basic window snapping ends up irritating me more often than it’s useful. I’ll have a window that is on the left side and not half screen. I use window left, and instead of snapping to half it “helpfully” switches monitors.
Also I use multiple desktops. Windows couples all monitor desktops together. I can’t switch just one desktop. On a Mac I can swipe between individual desktops on each screen. This is way more useful to me.
Windows also has a better clipboard manager. But it’s to basic to be useful for me. Only saves 10 things. I install a manager that saves 1000s.
Windows power shell is awful. And worse is googling for how to do anything with a “command line” on Windows because you have to not only figure out what command line they mean but also what damn version.
I’ve had very little trouble switching between Linux and Mac with home brew installed.
Also Windows has a wierd file system. If I use the keyboard command to make a link to a folder it makes a bloody shortcut which a lot of programs ignore.
So instead I get to google what the windows equivalent is of a hard link and how to make one. It’s a junction link and you use the command line. Yay. The command line isnt nearly as helpful. It’s very different from Linux. So very little transfers.
And it doesn’t have history between sessions. “Power” doesn’t have history between sessions.
Mac at least has the decency to use a decent shell in zsh. Zsh is fantastic.
Also on the file system. When you get a select file for upload dialog, if you drag a file you already found in a file window to the dialog, it MOVES the file! Why! No instead you should apparently find the file again in the dialog or copy and paste the path which is way more steps.
On Mac I just drag a file to the select dialog and it auto switches to the location and selects the file. The thing I wanted to do.
To semi automate downloading all the pages, try jdownloader 2. You probably need to paste the url into jdownloader manually for jdownloader to load all the downloadable bits it finds on the page.
If you want to learn vim, try the command vimtutor in a terminal
I airplay from my phone and that allows adblocking still
Oddly enough YouTube only seems to be ramping up its antiadbpocker campaign on their desktop version. The mobile version of the site works fine without ads.
The convenience of not being wired to my device outweighs “better” sound.
Wired doesn’t immediately make it sound better. Plenty of crap or just cheap wired ones.
What is great is never getting up and have your ears ya led and and your phone sent flying because you forgot you set your phone on the table. Or worse, the cables got caught on the door knob.
Not even a beep, AirPods have a pleasant little sound that goes down and fits battery is low somehow. It is once at 10 percent and again when they die. That’s it.
It’s not loud, it’s not annoying, just a little created sound to tell you battery is low.
So much this. I had a cheaper pair of Bluetooth headphones back in the day and when they got 10 percent or so they would loudly (regardless of volume set) proclaim
“BATTERY LOW”
Continue listening for maybe a minute
“BATTERY LOW”
I have maybe 5 minutes before I am home
“BATTERY LOW”
The battery will last till th
“BATTERY LOW”
TILL THEN NO PROBL
“BATTERY LOW”
Aaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrgrgrggggggggggg
But that is a typing weakness of that language. I just prefer using languages where the compiler actually does know what the types are at all time and thus can inform me instead of me trying to make sure that types align correctly.
That is tedious work that has been proven to be a terrible idea to shift onto humans. Strong type systems make much more robust code.
Abap only has one collection type, and its tables. Contextually it’s not hard to read what a collection of things are and what a single thing is.
If I am looping through comments and do something with comment, it’s contextually clear what ma going on. The exact type can be easily checked for when it’s actually needed.
Naming a count of something the plural seems like a much less intuitive thing. Especially sense generally the count is gotten from the collection.
This isn’t even like the worst of it. It’s an old enough language they still thought the compiler shouldn’t have to do more work.
So you have to declare all variables, types, and methods in the top section of the class, and the method implementation in its own section. That means while working on a method, the method signature is a long way away. And because abap developers are allergic to splitting up code into reasonable classes, that can be a couple thousand lines away.
Oh and all classes are in the global namespace. So all the classes you make must start with the letter z because SAP reserves any and all names that don’t start with z.
Oh and they didn’t feel like making library code to do a lot of basic stuff, oh no, they thought that 3000+ keywords was a much better system. Especially sense hovering over a keyword gives no documentation and discoverable is therefore pretty terrible.
Also they wanted everything to be sentenced like so keyword structures are often many special words in specific orders and hopefully you can write enough of it to get a prompt to fill in the rest.
I am chaotic good at home with a 4K and a laptop screen
But at work it’s all 1080 monitors (unfortunately) so I have 3 and I a mix of chaotic neutral and lawful evil 😂 2 portraits then a landscape
Character limits and a stupid badly used Hungarian notation to waste limited characters to tell use what the ide already knows.
If you have a table, (that’s an array for sane programmers) name the variable as a plural and we will know it’s a table.
Don’t name two variables the same stupid abbreviation with different Hungarian notation characters stuck to the front
Or another person who just can’t let someone who likes apple devices, like them.
The op post is pretty terrible. It’s insultingly in their superior complex. That’s what most extreme “all users who do x” takes are.
The response wasn’t that there is no other way to fulfill this list of things that they like, but that for them, apple devices fulfill this list of things.
I’ve used plenty of OSes. I switch between Linux for our servers, windows on my work computer and my gaming computer, and apples oses on the apple devices I own. I prefer macos to windows any day. That’s my personal preference. You prefer Linux? Good, have fun. Windows? Sure, whatever floats your boats.
RCS would be a good solution if the standards committee wasn’t so held back by not adding an official end to end encryption method. Probably telecoms not wanting to give up the data mining.
