• Thinking of switching from photoshop to affinity

  I switch in 2014 and never went back. The learning curve is something you need to be aware of and also the fact you need to buy other apps as well. For example I have these apps accompanying my Affinity suite: Hype4, Pixelmator and Art Text plus a free app that is a Figma alternative called Penpot. Why? Because these third apps would do what Affinity can’t. With all those apps, you won’t need Adobe to survive in... Source: 11 months ago

• I still use Flash in 2022

  Man I miss Flash too! Tumult Hype is the closest thing to it, but the editor's Mac only. https://tumult.com/hype/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Are there things that Flash did that we still can’t do with today’s web?

  I keep hoping that we’ll be able to package Flash-grade animations as WASM and send them out as a single file (or as two files, one for a Haxe-like runtime and another for the game or animation). But since there is no real standard authoring tool (and nobody mentions those, or the ease of use the Flash “IDE” had) I don’t have much hope. The closest I’ve seen (and actually use) is Hype (https://tumult.com/hype/),... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

  On Mac there is Hype. The earlier versions were pretty good, but I haven't used the latest. https://tumult.com/hype/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Spiritual Successor of Flash Websites?

  BTW, you might also want to check out Tumult Hype, I used it for some projects that were similar. https://tumult.com/hype/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Workman Layout for Vim

  Last year during a couple month break I had between jobs I decided I would learn a new keyboard layout as it was something I always wanted to do, but never wanted to commit to the learning process while I still needed to be proficient at typing. I chose to learn Colemak-DH [0]. Before learning I was around a 75-80 WPM Qwerty touch typist. I went all in and did a lot of heavy practice. It took me around a week to... - Source: Hacker News / 23 days ago

• Suggest a layout for 5 column and 3 row split keyboard

  I’ve learned a lot from Seniply and Miryoku, both designed to take advantage of small keyboards. They both default to Colemak-DH, which is good. Source: 11 months ago

• Placement of letters on the index finger: lateral stretch vs. DSFBs

  u/stevep99’s Colemak-DH mod is built with just this observation, and though many are fine with the vanilla Colemak, I think DH/m is a smart mod. It is a common concern, shared by the BEAKL layouts (Xay Voong and u/iandoug) and others. My first letter-on-thumb foray was with RSTHD, which I still think is brilliant, but even better with D<->P swapped, for this reason. Source: 12 months ago

• True and related.

  QWERTY layout? In 2023? For job that requires a lot of typing? Colemak Mod-DH. Source: 12 months ago

• Layout suggestions to someone who is not good at any layout yet.

  In comparison, the layout is a relatively minor effect, but the choice of layout can reduce finger travel and awkward finger motions, which is good. Colemak DH is a solid and popular choice. See also A guide to alt keyboard layouts. Source: about 1 year ago
