@cramforce @ryanworl @Qualcomm Slow devices still exist because the cancer that is Qualcomm has prevented meaningful SoC competition in Android devices over the last 4 years. And today!

@triniwiz @cramforce @ryanworl @Qualcomm https://t.co/ZWZdqlTqXY Spoiler: things still aren’t fixed, almost 4 years later.

@cramforce @ryanworl Bandwidth and latency are intimately related. Death to @qualcomm.

@cramforce @ryanworl and I have zero empathy for @qualcomm. Fuck Qualcomm, they're terrible at their jobs. I hope they go out of business and the ground their company existed on is plowed with salt so nothing can ever grow there again.

@cramforce @ryanworl we've been trending towards infinite CPU speed for decades now (and we've been asymptotically there for ~5 years on desktop), what we are not and will never trend towards is infinite bandwidth. Optimize for the things that matter.

@Jestingrabbit I've visited Sydney, and I feel your pain.. mostly latency though

@cramforce @ryanworl Literally any phone of vintage iPhone 6 or greater is basically as fast as the "average" laptop. You have to understand how brutally bad Qualcomm is at their job. Look it up if you don't believe me.

@baconmeteor this is wonderful, thank you. Weapons-grade mustard.

@jongalloway @jeffsand @bketelsen @glowforge Oh John Galoweigh u so crazy

@stevesi ah yeah the old Sony monitors

@ryanworl unrealistic if you have a modern iPhone. Proper for all Android devices though 🔥

@jeffsand @bketelsen @glowforge eyes are overrated!

@textfiles I remember recommending Discourse and getting ignored, so.. y'know..

@amybwang @DanB It’s out there https://t.co/GvE5u64zkf

@deadprogrammer So is parenting

@ID_AA_Carmack headcanon 🤔

@psaffo CHEMTRAILS

@migueldeicaza only one way to find out!

@PixelAmbacht https://t.co/RtHyCROtrr

@Zediah the quick cut to the closet and the whispered "hey" gets me every time

@johnolilly https://t.co/XkPNGmuOTx

@cisellis ha haaa you lost to Wii Fit lady 🤣

@cisellis I unlocked the Wii Fit lady!!

@brendanreville @stevesi @verge did he lead everyone in an exercise programs of side bends and sit-ups?

@stevesi @verge Sir Mix-a-Lot would approve, at least

@drewtetz I fully support this initiative

@OH_NOES not much prior legal "art" on this at all though, compare to sampling and music

@rands This was truly epic!

@zippy1981 you gotta research before asking. This is Q&A 101

@lizardbill it ain't easy!

I thought Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus was a bit of a disappointing game in terms of actual *gameplay*, but the story part was actually kinda incredible

@snemarch It is ... big time weird on a keyboard

I needed 4k Katamari in my life so bad right now https://t.co/4LwH84qAsK

@patrickmi @brianly @stevesi JS perf relates directly to single-threaded perf... and efficiency. In general the faster chips are on newer processes, so they get more work done faster and thus get to idle faster, resulting in a net power savings (for the same workload) as well.

@SebAaltonen Anything under 288hz is a massive competitive disadvantage IMO

@jessamyn I never understood how bad and invasive starlings were until season 1 of Ozark.. https://t.co/tDq6VS4hQv

@mathowie @joshgondelman There ya go @SuperDalgas

@sdepouw It has been a few months but I got it to work. It is an awkward setup for sure, the way Twitter has it implemented

@sdepouw You can add it and then remove it. This works, I have done it recently

@Carnage4Life And threaded conversations ended up being an anti-feature for the most part

@chriscoyier 6-8 weeks

@jasonmacgowan https://t.co/GdoH9XVAwt

whoever wrote this character DEFINITELY knew programmers, like.. *really* well https://t.co/ipCIpsN7VO

people person, worst guidance counselor ever, and of course, programmer from the future

@paulg A certain amount of inefficiency is by design in government. Checks and balances.. when they're actually working, that is!

@textfiles This guy is.. kinda .. far .. out there.. man.. "Apparently it was the wrong response as [my son] later decided to become a girl." https://t.co/zzzEJeLic1

@textfiles that is actually super bizarre

@textfiles Pretty spendy, so for an average 144 pages issue, that'd be ~$72 .. not cheap at scale!

@textfiles How much do commercial scanning services cost, just out of curiosity? Per page?

@ftrain @mathowie I would like to nominate this tweet for a nobel prize

@realkpfleming both not actual words!

@mathowie If it bleeds it leads

@PREMIUMPONCHO @drewtetz Magiski seems fine?

@textfiles Apparently I pay some jackass to make a podcast

@stevesi mornings should be outlawed

@getify I do think online tools make screening a whole lot better than 10 years ago, or 20 years ago

@notwaldorf https://t.co/8TwsL2Hhrg

@modernserf @getify @eddroid @raganwald Personally, I was surprised that it happened *at all*.. it's like hiring for "truck drivers" and people show up who don't know how a steering wheel and gas pedal work

@bfishbfish @xor @lifehacker 👏 I love the section at the end, "And tell the haters to suck it" 🤣

@proguerammer @_paperino I think the Firestarter one is considerably better

@_paperino Wow. Jimmy Eat World did an A/B side cover of "Firestarter" and "Last Christmas". I gotta hear this..

@dcominottim @stevesi 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

@stevesi Qualcomm is terrible at their job(s). Or Apple is amazing at it. You choose which is correct!

In conclusion https://t.co/3RJEMI3hCB

@steholmes I need the opposite of this

@patrickc feel free to add @discourse to that list, fantastic for teamwork. I am slightly biased though ;)

@tqbf @paulg I'll admit I had some hope until I saw how badly Jack mishandled the Alex Jones thing.

@mdshw5 that is why I said "pretty good" and not "must watch" or "excellent". I enjoyed it though

@chriscoyier (makes a cow milking gesture) like this

@Cloudhunter @sarahjeong oppressed, really

@sarahjeong who will think of the old white people? who?

@Carnage4Life @jack To be fair, it was more than a little ridiculous. Get a damn family. Spend time with them. Join the rest of the human race in our race to.. wherever the hell it is we're going, anyway

@staticsan prettttyyy much everyone

@deadprogrammer cc @mathowie 🤣

@wilshipley excellent recap summary A+++ would read again

@JorgeCupi Not there! But you can get stickers, there is a way, if you can find it on my blog (hint: look for about me)

@HobbitWen @C3yoyodesign 😍 I was throwing my gungnir tonight! https://t.co/ivCuCJikhx

@jwz @textfiles I'll admit, after the horrendous way the Alex Jones thing was handled by Twitter, I'm no longer willing to give this dude the benefit of any doubts

@mufazadk @ArveSystad @RobMarProd @PavelPatino @lukew If you are "riding blind" you suck at your job.

@mathowie this is an excellent blog post 👌 A+++ would read again

@wilshipley "Bethesda is great at story and single player. So they made a game without a story, multiplayer only. With an old game engine. It's a game nobody wanted, and executed poorly." -- via @eviltrout

@ID_AA_Carmack Yes! This is what we do at @discourse as well. Value of structured internal / external communication

@cherdt @CodyBrown ah, sorry, I saw it on Imgur, I didn't see it here. I love it though

@Carnage4Life aka 'economics'

@mufazadk @PavelPatino @lukew Wasn't facebook's goal to have lots of revenue and lots of users? They achieved that, at what cost to the rest of humanity?

@jongalloway @Tidjani_B it is true, all email is sacred

@jongalloway @Tidjani_B John Galoweigh let me introduce you to my friend the delete button

@notwaldorf I suppose it is a lesser case of "they have to be monsters", e.g. unless they are weird monsters, it means any of us could be that bad person (which is really the uncomfortable truth) https://t.co/7wNGuUpkDs

@Kampfkarren I tend to care a lot about stuff that most people just .. don't.

@PavelPatino @lukew If it *must* be quantified and *must* be an explicit attainable goal, it will be gamed.. and gamed super hard.

@Carnage4Life @johnolilly Yeah it's so bad. I desperately hope we change this in 2020, and I want to chalk 2016 up to a super rare confluence of extremely unlikely events.

@PhlashGBG no, I don't think so, there are clearly possible solutions that are well thought out and have anticipated future needs. And then there are "solutions" that.. achieve neither of those things ;)

@johnolilly Everything we know about leadership is wrong John! It's opposite year.. I mean, four years of opposite year..

@lukew as if I needed another reason to hate OKRs. They're awful.

@kwiens @nxthompson @LaurenGoode take it to a local repair shop is way more realistic.. fixing this stuff is hard as hell and super tweaky. I can barely put on a screen protector right without bubbles and crap

@ChristosMatskas @jongalloway you can rub his bald head for luck! Try it, it works! That's how I launched Stack Overflow!

@maijasauna nut smaaaack bayyybeeeeee
(nutsmack baby!)

@chetfaliszek the steam reviews for this are horrendously negative at the moment. I wasn't too keen with what they did in JC3 so holding off on this one for now
