As the world grapples with the continuous spread of coronavirus, more companies are making tools to keep people informed about the pandemic. Earlier today, Microsoft rolled out a new live dashboard to track the COVID-19 outbreak. It's a shame no one will see it

Oh, it's all very well that the others make prettier or more functional products, but none of them can come even close to matching ms when it comes to resource consumption!

Creating apps for developers is--or should be--a lot different than creating apps for the average end user. Good luck - those folk are awful

No it shouldn't. Just amazing. You think I, as a developer, want to use the command line??? Morons.
Then again, I also don't want ribbon bars with more empty space than actual content.

I get the feeling that this push to put everything in a CLI is like the “need” for dark mode. Herd mentality

I really don't get that.
Backlit screens were the best thing since cordless kettles (which they probably predated, but I'm not going to waste my precious time and effort changing it to "sliced bread"). Why anyone would want to go back to white text on a black screen is beyond me; the whole "dark mode" thing is a joke.
It's either Ludditism or reverse elitism -- I don't care which; I just want it to go away.
The only thing I have in dark mode is Steam, but that's only because lighter skins don't work for it, any more -- and that's one of the three reasons* that I would rather buy from any other outlet that has what I want
* The others being that you hit too many "You can't get to there from here" moments in the UI, and that it screws up your gamepad controls when you play non-steam games (because it just has to run in the background all the time, doesn't it? Computers only exist to run bloatware from game shops).

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I’m excited to announce that GitHub has signed an agreement to acquire npm. This will have a huge effect on everyone's lifestyle
I mean, it's pretty big, and will touch many of our users, but likely it will have no effect in the bigger picture.
We report, you decide.

Exactly.
But seriously, it's one of those command-line tools for getting JavaScript packages.
