@Carnage4Life @paulg I think the bigger your audience, the less you can say without *someone* getting upset. That said, this comic is still true https://t.co/eI6zQzCzER https://t.co/52hp3YpRld

this skit is so underrated. "Are you sure you didn't talk to Sarah?"

@_joshdick yes I own every single one of those

@textfiles @waxy probably first order is shorter is always more expensive than longer, assuming it isn't random letters

@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life It's another reason to work at a small company vs. a large one.. large is gonna have a weird statistical cross-section of "everyone"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf I thought the EXACT SAME THING

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Frauenfelder I still love your epic comics find story. that was nuts. wasn't that also in/around Denver?

@TheEvanCarroll @CORSAIR the good news is that SSDs have gotten so good and so reliable between 2013-2019 I barely bother testing them any more

@codinghorror
@jamiew @photomatt I control F to search these every time, which just goes to show you that on a long enough product development timeline, search is the UI that everyone always ends up with. It is inevitable.

@kylembrandt do you recommend Man in the High Castle?

@codinghorror
@leahculver @netflix yeah that was a tough watch, but an excellent cautionary tale. Particularly good for dudes who want to understand how their social software can be used in ways they didn't.. anticipate.

@scottwasson life begins at 288Hz. 144Hz is for noobs who can't see things.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson even for gaming. Sitting down at my son's rig for 1080p fortnite versus playing fortnite on the 4k I have.. very, very noticeable difference to me. Huge even. And gfx detail settings are identical.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson not entirely sure this is true, depends on viewing distance. For close up PC monitors, quantity has a quality all its own. On a TV, maybe.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
also this, which looks like a website straight out of 2005 https://t.co/ErQmk85wrd

"The loss from producing the one cent coin in the United States for the year of 2013 was $55,000,000. This was a slight decrease from 2012, the year before, which had a production loss of $58,000,000."

@jameshamblin @wilshipley Weren’t these more onscreen smartphone keyboard errors? Granted it’s still sloppy as hell

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles excellent twitter thinkpiece, would read again, SHOULD HAVE BEEN A FUCKING BLOG ENTRY, carry on

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@rafael_falco @MasinAD oh interesting a) that value is totally incorrect for the Pixel 3, I get 55 on the OnePlus 6 which is also snapdragon 845 and b) wildly different than Anandtech's results which were 59. So yeah, this source sucks.

@codinghorror
@martinpeck @dhh @dfabu @photomatt @Medium @WordPress how could anyone have possibly predicted that massive centralization would lead to these kinds of problems? 😉

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@hypatiadotca there is significant speculation that he was CYA by saying he "misinterpreted" in that email (fair enough since that would be more than career ending for him), perhaps he *didn't* and actually thought it was legitimate 😱

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kahliltweets @dhh @dfabu @photomatt @Medium @WordPress that's fair, but a) never outsource a core competency and b) they helped centralize Medium. I would like to see the same principled stand they took with Facebook echoed here with Medium. Centralization is bad and "I got more clicks" isn't exactly a principled stance.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@dhh @dfabu @photomatt @Medium @WordPress The same anti-facebook anti-centralization rationale should apply here. Bit of an oddity that it didn't.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@dfabu @dhh @photomatt @Medium @WordPress If it is a core competency, never outsource it. Writing clearly is, so that was a mistake.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MasinAD Try using more than one (terrible) benchmarking tool, for starters.

@vandroidhelsing It’s a joke. I am a programmer and we work with the ultimate completely unforgiving pedant all day long: the computer. It is literally our biggest occupational hazard.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@vandroidhelsing an actual bulleted list would have used • not -

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@zezesbookmarks that was actually @rory_blyth and it's excellent advice for the entirety of one's life ;)

@codinghorror
@kwiens then you should buy those products! 🤑

@deadprogrammer I don't think you should start until you've lathed your own

@SwiftOnSecurity bless your heart

@SwiftOnSecurity quiet the blue check people are talking now

Jeff Atwood

@leahculver yeah there's something else going on here, trying to pin it down

@notwaldorf I salute your bravery

@kwiens on Quora? Seriously Kyle? You know better.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles I loved that scene

@Hanzo55 make sure they have a leather bound copy of "The Canadians" when you send them on their way!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tobermatt I *think* that's supposed to be pac-man, but facing the viewer?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mattburns_uk @discourse I don’t see the connection here. Letting someone buy your domain from under you is gonna have some bad outcomes.

the other funny thing is, Ms. Pac-Man was eventually released for the Atari 2600 and COMPLETELY unlike the Pac-Man port which is (rightfully) considered one of the worst of all time .. it was .. surprisingly good? https://t.co/5kfQQei8i6

@codinghorror
@punkeel @discourse not exactly, we had a customer get compromised by an old admin account .. not the fault of Discourse per se but I always like to be as safe as possible by default, and this seemed logical

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SalaryMom True Detective was great! I remember one season being much better than the other, though. Also looking forward to S3!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@dbrower @discourse it would be an extremely onerous default in my opinion

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley You overestimate my fondness for adults.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lizardbill @waxpancake it was an anti-game

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
Which reminds me, you only get one mom. Have you done something nice for your mother recently? Time to re-up!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
also provides additional context for this tweet. YEAH I WISHED IT HAD LOOKED LIKE THAT GOD DAMN IT https://t.co/cWg64iu0jE

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
and TBH this is why I am conflicted about my son's obsession with Fortnite, I can't say I didn't do the same exact thing. At least Fortnite is quite social!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@dbrower @discourse It is an option and exists in Discourse but we don’t control every open source install.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@discourse Admins are super privileged, so reducing default attack surface here is a big win

@kevindente Quoting Rorshach is a bit ... scary regardless of the source.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley yeah it is slow to start but the payoff is HUUUUUGE. So good. My best funny thing from 2018, without a doubt.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@stevesi does that scale in an era of infinite press from infinite sources? I guess you could 1:1 the "important" news outlets..?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@chx plus A12X makes even i7s look dumb

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@chx possibly, it looks really weak. Also Atom is dead, which is probably good given how much they gimped it

Jeff Atwood

@drewtetz def. better larger, easier to see the SFX
