@PPathole looks like this is the original source https://t.co/Bj13KkIQtZ

@donpark Yes I have heard this is now common

It is rare to get to the key, although it is worth the most points

@textfiles The funny thing is how fucking dead windows, icon, menu, pointer (wimp) paradigm is now courtesy of the web. And honestly? It had it coming.

@IngridMorstrad @RSchlnvoigt https://t.co/uMFL21F5BN

@paulg Lol I love this image

@wingedpig Omg yes

@fabbrication that has absoutely zero to do with this in any way

@uberbrady doesn't matter. only 5% of the pop needs to do it to have total coverage. It's coming whether you like it or not.

@chrisleppanen nah that weed will be legalized soon

@danhulton there are already literal laws against that. Just like it's illegal to look at someone and decline to hire them based on their race. Exactly the same scenario, substitute "genetic race"

@danhulton @MaryannePeters lol good luck with that

@IngridMorstrad @RSchlnvoigt every app I use is a web app. Outside of video games, there's no value in native apps today.

@romainmuller well, it is *almost* as fast as an iPhone XS when plugged in

it's kind of amazing how bad Intel is at this stuff now, you know, CPUs attached to batteries, so crazy

TL;DR you basically go from iPhone X performance to OnePlus 6 performance when you unplug your Surface Pro 6 https://t.co/GwP8v7JEm5

Google Chome and https://t.co/Ily3kiXmQT plugged in with the above settings -- 110. On 🔋, at the "recommended" power setting -- 55. 😭 the "good" news is that dropping down to "battery saver" mode only reduces that to 53

@susanthesquark I greatly admire Susan Fowler, who is one of the bravest people I've never met

I also found this article highly informant 🤔 https://t.co/EmmfGR9qRt

@PureAdrenallen so predictable Garrett

also if you are that person (I really tried and I can't find it) I want you to know that in my mind you have just been awarded the twitter nobel prize

@cr1st1an @dhh one of the first replies was the most accurate: "after reading this tweet and its replies I have concluded that words are meaningless". I can't find it now, but that guy deserves a Twitter Nobel Prize.

@cr1st1an @dhh because seriously if the argument is that you're not allowed to be passionate about anything, you might as well load up that screensaver that counts the number of days remaining until you'll be, statistically speaking, dead.

@cr1st1an @dhh The "be passionate" part is what's important, not gatekeeping about what it's OK to be passionate about. And god forbid, gatekeeping over the very idea that you're not *allowed* to be passionate about anything at all, because that's somehow not cool. 🤯

@patio11 ah yes I mixed them up. I meant https://t.co/F6F3aWO77P ! And I can recommend both highly.

@patio11 let me again thank you for the https://t.co/zwEEwp6ORR recommendation, pure gold

@pfranzen @dhh @discourse it's more like David is splitting hairs about what it's "OK" to be passionate about. JFC. Just be passionate about SOMETHING and GIVE A DAMN and let that motivate you toward your best work. I don't care what it is!

@dvassallo @dhh @discourse I actually kinda like the idea that @dhh feels absolutely nothing. It's pure. I withdraw my complaint, and enter only admiration.

@dhh @discourse https://t.co/zlepD1PWTd

@dhh @discourse clearly, writing 4 books, an obsessively opinionated dev framework and 10 years of blogged life philosophy based around a product isn't.. any kind of passion about anything in your business. You feel nothing. You clock in and out every day with a steely frown, just to get paid..

@deadprogrammer How is that even possible

@dhh @discourse that's twitter for ya. I don't have any substantive complaints, other than everyone involved is heavily biased, and the people most biased are those protesting that they.. aren't.. biased.

@rynonl @dhh not really. lots of people run boring old businesses without wrapping 4 books, a life philosophy, and a dev framework around it. Sounds like someone is.. *obsessed* 🤔

@ehansalytics yeah when plugged in best perf is the way to go. Might as well get all lthe perf you paid for..

@NicanBun https://t.co/Ily3kiXmQT

this is not actually a joke tweet, I swear

@pankowecki @discourse I said “choices” .. not Rails, to be clear ;) Rails has worked fine for us

@colinmcgovernpm @dhh You should refer to his NYT bestseller on the matter

@gilini @dhh @discourse It’s only polarizing if you interpret it that way.

@iamwhoisme @dhh @discourse Rails is optimized for building his primary project, Basecamp.. why wouldn’t it be? If I was in his shoes I would also optimize rails for my primary project, Discourse. This is how people work. Bias is built in.

@headmelted @tlesher Note to any employees reading this: not you! You are obviously delightful! 💘

@dhh @discourse but what the hell do I know, we're only one of the two largest open source Rails projects in the world, the other being GitLab

@dhh are you kidding me? Rails is *heavily* optimized for building basecamp, and reflects many (most?) of your personal passion choices. We struggle with this constantly at @discourse

@tlesher @headmelted it is MUCH MUCH *MUCH* easier to pay the bills by *not* starting your own company though. You opt into considerable ongoing pain via that route, so people need to be aware of that tradeoff and have massive impetus for getting past it.

@dhh Ah yes, I am reminded of Rails, the "totally not opinionated at all" framework, where you can do things any number of ways, whatever suits your particular fancy! 😉

@tlesher @headmelted I am not sure how or why “actually caring a lot about the work” is considered uncool these days, but if that’s the case then I guess I am uncool.

@dhh It is funny how people can’t even parse their own bias. The hardest person to see in the mirror is yourself.

@dhh Totally. That’s why you guys wrote four books and a whole life philosophy around Basecamp, right? Oh and a dev framework.

@samsaffron @firefox I actually agree with ignoring it but choosing to “autofill” a giant multi line text box is beyond weird.

@samsaffron @firefox still feel like this is a vastly incomplete take. Why did THIS version of Chrome decide to suddently autocomplete THIS particular field when it never did before? Feels more like a bug to me than a political statement.

@drewtetz Noooooo give me your Yoffy first

@mathowie Yes these are painful, confirmed not a good time

@bytendog I do buy a lot of show seasons on iTunes and then strip DRM. I like to support creators of shows we love

Also indirectly means hipster implicit end of line JavaScript (instead of semicolon) is bad https://t.co/OEaeKSz9e0

This indirectly means WYSIWYG kinda sucks too, which is true as well https://t.co/axweoaoyZv

this is a borderline black comedy, one of my favorite genres https://t.co/lD63C1Ry5m

@paulg @discourse honestly you already have the best tool in your arsenal for this kind of discussion -- post a blog entry elaborating your position. *SHORT* preliminary Twitter conversations can be a good springboard for "topics I should cover in the blog post"

@paulg feel free to set up a @discourse, I completely agree that Twitter sucks for any kind of nuanced conversation. You'll still have "I can't scale to answering two dozen people in detail unless that's my actual full time job" issues though.

@paulg @davidsirota It isn’t though, because cutting taxes is politically extremely self-serving for a politician. It is literally the laziest way to run for re-election as a politician, quite close to paying people to vote for you.

I don't think things between US and Europe will get even close to bad enough. That concern is wildly overblown. But China and the US? Oh yeah, there's gonna be.. serious .. problems.

I just look at these maps and I think "two internets is gonna happen in my lifetime" https://t.co/LhWF3Ey1AV

oh and here's AWS CloudFront https://t.co/bJldZU33Ur

@dfabu I declared war on Mailkimp a while ago https://t.co/SwCvpVzVKw

@mathowie @dienowkthx That literally describes the last four Far Crys

@mathowie there's a new far cry already???

@nicksahler not exactly the "type email here press OK" system for end users who think "hmm I wanna subscribe to this blog via email" that I had in mind..

@jimmcslim @kalpha NVMe isn't *required* but it is a significantly cleaner build for a single drive system IMO, and of course 2x - 3x faster though the disk speed is basically at "obscene" levels, far beyond what's needed in their particular role.

@jimmcslim @kalpha actually no, we've been getting these 5019S-L boxes for $423, then add memory / CPU / HDD, sadly they don't support NVMe drives even though the specs say they're supposed to. https://t.co/10sQIit8H9

@jimmcslim @kalpha wow $517 though

@dvassallo @Carnage4Life @bytor99999 @timfox @patio11 so for initial hires, 4 years. After that "regularly" so multiple times per year?

@hisnameisjimmy @cwodtke but GOOD NEWS! It's going down! 🥳 https://t.co/bfZrjNvTQJ

@hisnameisjimmy @cwodtke it wasn't that long ago that people didn't regularly live to be 90 years old. Go back to 1950, average life expectancy 66 men / 70 women. Today it is 75 men / 80 women. https://t.co/OtcIiBC8R4

@dvassallo @Carnage4Life @bytor99999 @timfox @patio11 how long does vesting take from initial hire, in this case?

@Carnage4Life @bytor99999 @dvassallo @timfox @patio11 Note that paystub screenshots say, "gross pay $13,333.33" .. $13,333.33 x 12 = $160k. I am a little unclear where the other money is going? It says "RSU vest" not "gross pay".

@cwodtke I feel like 80% of this is people living longer and longer, and statistically old people are both more conservative and set in older ways. We need to bring back Logan's Run.

@kalpha I have not, however if you are building out a real rack of 10+ servers (or more), not 3-4, I would definitely go the IPMI route 100% all the time

@alxmcco 2080 Ti

@kalpha they offer managed power rail for remote reboot, but for true remote management (IPMI and the like) you'd need a different box

@rchrdbyd you pays your rates and you takes your chances. Modern hardware is *extremely* reliable though. The market optimizes for that. A few more specifics here https://t.co/hbZjZDBVk6

also FYI sometimes, apparently quite rarely, the freaky mutated spiders from the webs will crawl on your gas mask. That .. was a moment

@Hanzo55 @mgsiegler not many, but we try our best to explain that "comments hastily slapped on the bottom of a page" is a terrible model for basically any kind of human communication

@christianhujer no, that does nothing. see my reply.

TL;DR "This is coming up a lot recently because 18.04 Server has universe, multiverse, and backports disabled by default" would have been nice if the error MENTIONED THAT

@mr_crowl I posted an update here as well which may be of interest https://t.co/QGtCVRr3Wi

@mr_crowl it's whatever Intel ships with Coffee Lake. I'd recommend the Hades Canyon instead if you're worried about GPU. Great machine. https://t.co/iyISYLIfM6

@rseymour @Carnage4Life @bytor99999 @patio11 this is the problem at large techcos, statistically you're going to end up working on a team doing some trivial bullshit nobody cares about

@bytor99999 @patio11 no, @patio11 swears up and down that people make this much, and more. I think he's probably right, but it's a one-percenter kind of thing and strongly geographically localized.

@rchrdbyd Automatic unattended updates for Ubuntu Server already work fine, as they do on most other OSes. Modern SSDs have miniscule fail rates relative to old school spinning rust drives. Colo provider has UPSes. Still not meteor-proof of course.

@jacobastultz we find cloud hosting to be 10x more expensive than our colocation hosting, primarily because "one machine" is rarely enough, and the costs keep multiplying per machine. I'd say it mostly depends on duration. If you know you need dedicated machines for X years..

@jacobastultz yes, scaling up and down is a fair concern, particularly if your peaks and valleys are extreme. Hardware is cheap, but if you need to scale, say, 100x.. not cheap to run 100x hardware all the time that you pay for up front.

@jacobastultz assembling and configuring these is LEGO kit easy, just follow my blog posts. My 9 year old could do it.

@jamesjmchugh can you provide info in the comments? https://t.co/nxWLL39JJv

@JakubKonecki phone / text spam, yes ;)

This is magical https://t.co/hFJ37ELr8H

@Tuplet yes that is also what I was thinking. Some women said "if dudes hated online sexism as much as they hate online spam, we'd have solved it by now". I agree with the sentiment, in that people have massive blind spots, but it's a 1000x harder problem.

@skrenta whoa whoa there Skrenta slow down with all the constant firehose tweeting there champ

@eviltrout did he at least say he was ....

SORRY

@KristyT whooooo will look out for the white men? OMG this guy 👎

@DocPop @roxietheater the gist I got is that a lot of people thought it was super dated and not necessarily in an interesting way. Have you seen https://t.co/rEfQUeSXgc? https://t.co/69WfcyFhVy

@DocPop @roxietheater I was gonna watch this but I got turned away by a few contemporary reviews I read of it
