I'm sympathetic to people who want to develop portable GUI apps across Linux/Windows/OS X.
I'm sympathetic to people who want to develop portable GUI apps across Linux/Windows/OS X. If you're developing something like Inkscape or LibreOffice, most of your potential user base is on Windows and they are NOT going to install a Linux VM just to run your app. But yeah, there are a lot of people on HN who constantly post about how their work issued them a cat and they have all these tools they install on their cat to make it act more like a dog but it makes a really terrible dog anyway and so cats must be crap. Uh, it's a cat. If you need a dog, go get a dog. Or run a dog on Hyper-V if you need a dog and a cat at the same time. My favorite is when people talk about how their favorite scheme they use to get their dog to catch mice doesn't work for their cat, therefore it's evidence that cats are terrible at catching mice.
