@deadprogrammer I need that in my life so bad. I want to beat myself up every day, for real!

@andreif7 @bmeurer @dhh I guess I was thinking of the SPECCPU one, this looks reasonable I guess. If vintage 2006 though ;) https://t.co/MYdJMadbOK

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MRSallee if that was a standalone product, but it ain't

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@borowskidaniel That was cloning a specific sub-feature not a whole product

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
as a more serious aside, this is what comes of reacting to a competitor in fear, rather than forging ahead and building your own path on your own terms

@codinghorror
@frandallfarmer Never hurts to ask.. providing a sane export method is the big win, if possible

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@frandallfarmer Technically extremely complicated, as they actively write code to prevent scraping and provide no export tools. Unless there is a solid business hosting lead, or a developer who wants to take it on pro bono, not likely to happen

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard No you love it, try again

If only men had equal rights, equal compensation, equal opportunity .. if only these historic injustices could be somehow righted by the moral arc of the universe. Ah, a man can still dream. Barely.

@codinghorror
@billyeichner There's a program @betsyphd told me about to advertise pro-voting on instagram which is where all the younger folks are. I can confirm, based on my observations in the yo-yo community at least..

@andreif7 @bmeurer @dhh Per https://t.co/7iNLIVb0nE
SPECint2006 -- 36.93 --> 44.92 is about 20% better
Speedometer2 -- 90 --> 125 is 38% better
That is nearly 2x what SPECint would predict.

@filpizlo @dakami @kevinriggle @dhh it correlates exactly with single threaded CPU perf in the past ~5 years I've looked at it. Anandtech did say the memory got a lot faster with A12 so that could be a factor as well: https://t.co/MUBMzJnqMO

@codinghorror
@timgostony @collegelabs @bbarnich 🍻 cheers for that, the contest was a reminder to everyone that social media rage doesn't accomplish much, but sending money to support strategic political races.. does!

16 entries so far, y'all are awesome. 🤗 Get those last 4 in, and I'll get RNGesus on the job to pick a winner!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@rootlabs @StriderNotavi @PupCrash @Pinboard Yes, the ass-kicking (by vote, of course) is the important part, spot on

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mgsiegler @msquinn congrats and excellent name choice ;) we have twins, Maisie and June

@codinghorror
@znouira it's more difficult to ship outside the US, sorry, plus this is a USA political cause anyways

@aragnophy @zammpaul yeah 2080 does not look worth it at this point.. if 1080ti prices go down, that'll be the best value

@aggieben @samsaffron @prollin @migueldeicaza @shandrew well, we can all agree that iTunes sucks balls, at least

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@prollin @migueldeicaza @shandrew @samsaffron Well, @samsaffron is super SUPER adamant that it does NOT work.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles totally not weird at all

@codinghorror
@ZachWeiner Underground Airlines

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@migueldeicaza @shandrew I checked with @samsaffron and he said this ONLY works on Mac OS X iTunes. For a Windows iTunes backup it does *not* work.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
Having thought about this a bit more, I'm pretty sure since it is Black Mirror all the choices will end up being Jackass Genie https://t.co/zjzc75i04l

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@migueldeicaza @shandrew so it has to be an iTunes backup and you mark it encrypted? Just a regular full backup from iTunes?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Rick98761 @OH_NOES snapdragon 845 will get 50

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@shandrew @migueldeicaza hmm did this work for you Miguel?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life If this was Twitter it would have taken them 3 years longer to figure it out, and Jack would have personally told everyone it wasn't necessary for a year longer until they finally relented

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tobermatt that's normal for Australia

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lxztlr Speedometer 2.0 fails to run on IE11 😲. However Speedometer 1.0 runs, it is not directly comparable to 2.0 (it runs much faster), IE11 scores 53 vs Chrome 224

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@chetfaliszek yeah what is this

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@migueldeicaza I should have bought a six pack

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mattbeckman WHOOOOAA this is next level 🤯

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@samsaffron @eviltrout @Authy I may switch next time I change phones, gonna give Google around a year to get their story together on this

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@thefarseeker @ChrisEsplin @Authy @1Password yeah there has to be a reason Google hasn't added this (some replies indicated older versions of Google Authenticator *did* do this)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@thefarseeker @Authy pretty much, but I'm not really convinced Authy is as reliable as Google in the big scheme of things. They must have reasons for doing it this way

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@eviltrout it sounds like since you HAVE to change, that is the exact time to adopt a different solution. I'm toughing it out with Google Authenticator for now, but if this happens again, I'll switch

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jbfriedrich do you have a link? if it is wontfix I would like to understand why

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
Wow this is crazy, looks like that is indeed the status quo. As 2fa becomes more common, you can have 20+ entries here! Anyone at Google reading this, is some kind of improvement on the roadmap for Google Authenticator for phone changes?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
I'm definitely getting this shirt though https://t.co/Pla2OKjElc

@MehrdadA I was on the fence on this one but the Speedometer 2.0 results convinced me. It is on its way, not in hand yet

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jongalloway you could google it and find out, sorry I meant bing it

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mathowie my solution: I never answer the phone

@migueldeicaza @shanselman This is a shameful state of affairs for Windows 10

@LorienMCS @owencm the faster the device, the slower it grows obsolete 😉 big exception being camera though

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MehNitesh2 for details see https://t.co/KJ8maO5If6 and https://t.co/0vPghxLBME released in Chrome 59 and it definitely worked, so the software is kinda fixed now. Hardware.. notsomuch.. Qualcomm 👎

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MehNitesh2 incorrect, totally untrue today. Was true 2 years ago though!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
Android has come a long way since 2015, and I enjoyed my time on vacation using the OnePlus 6 and Android 9 (Pie). However ... the whole platform is undercut by Qualcomm's thoroughly mediocre SoCs. I sincerely hope Google has a whole team working on better SoCs, somewhere..

@Pinboard what they *really* want, though, is 27 megabytes of javascript ad code on each web page they visit. SPOILER ALERT

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@pkell7 use the word "evolved" if you prefer; the meaning is the same, as I intended it.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf @discourse also looks like it is Drupal based 🤢

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf @discourse also wait a tick... that link is absolutely *buried* in the footer, not like it's in the top menu or even in the body of the page really. It's "scroll to bottom and squint at tiny text"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf hey man we run an entire company at @discourse based on this premise

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@AlexandraABowen I'd get another job! To be clear, I'm also definitely not arguing the opposite, that social media full of artificial happiness is a good thing for anyone.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard I didn't screenshot, but I donated ~$700

@Carnage4Life @Steven_Ballmer This is why economics is so interesting. Watch what people spend money on; it's the real truth.
