@Pinboard it's expensive and time consuming to replace your house and all its belongings, even with magic insurance cash

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard the recurring economic costs do that for you, because you get bitchslapped by the invisible hand of the market

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@steveagrc @JackDeeth click the video links, instead. Give that a try.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@realsshrestha did try different cable, gonna drag a test monitor in, in a sec

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard the royal house of snark

@codinghorror
@rands @tomcoates Think of it as a Steam Machine if that helps

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@rands @tomcoates not at 4k 60fps it doesn't.. yet.. so it is dead to me until October 24th

@tqbf Mostly I'm trying to define an easy way for users, since OS makers will never ship this right IMO

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf don't we have to trust the third-party executables in a similar manner?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cwodtke I dunno, there are so many great movies even for kids. Gonna die soon enough, why not see all the things?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf does sending through a website count?

@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life "Gun ownership is most common among men, whites" https://t.co/SO8Cd3urtM

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life not for white people, it isn't.. so it depends what the racial makeup of gun owners is.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard It must bleed to lead

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer dodged a bullet there, phew

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer were.. were you one of the first few hundred Stack Overflow users??

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kraenhansen three different projects

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@drldcsta @sarahjeong More of a Lawrence Lessig and Clay Shirky man, myself. Those two should have a baby and it should be elected king of the world.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cwodtke Never watched anything 5 times much less 10!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@samsaffron @robconery Minivans are amazing. Total convert here. The a-team basically drove a minivan just sayin'

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@sarahjeong Have you ever seen so many dudes in love with another dude

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon This is objectively the best tweet

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@samsaffron @robconery Minivan easily not even a problem

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@WebAsh what are your feelings on hamburgers and french fries? ;)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@WebAsh ohhh I'm sure you haaate blue jeans and rock and roll ;)

@ftrain Whatever you do, I *strongly* recommend you do *not* go the cheap Android tablet route. So bad.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@superdaveghs @ftrain Get the $7 tempered glass screen protectors and a Big Grips case

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Hanzo55 Magical sound shower time yo

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ftrain The $329 iPad is amazing value. You gotta love your kids at least that much ;)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jasper_07 eh, the tone is _super_ dark in the UK version. And the secondary / tertiary characters get nothing.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jasper_07 I disagree: https://t.co/akUlSoa738

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@WillWorth but are you British *ENOUGH*

@Beschizza it's that or one giant Facebook for every human ever born until the heat death of the universe

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Beschizza I am not sure people truly want real time chat, it's just easy to make it look like it "works". Start typing = working!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@secretGeek Why would I? It is a concrete, specific question with a fact based answer based on data :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SparkyRobot @JoshCrewsReally Aww you are too nice

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@patleeman @deadprogrammer Well with some modding

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@the_nathanjones @mattkocaj @dennisroche guys is Twitter really the best place for this? Let's think.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer no, but I did invest in rechargeable C and D batteries finally

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@carpetfizz this belt one gets a good review https://t.co/MXQWz4uLWW

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@secretGeek I just learned to buy new ones when they are older

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@martinwoodward true with kids as well, caveat being "yes, and.."

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jmecantrell well maybe if the puppy phase lasted for 8 years

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life that is surprising

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer I purchased this before reading all 140 characters

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@secretGeek almost as bad as "bambrick"

@drob @nasowasaberooch PROGRAMMING IS THE BEST JOB THERE IS THERE ARE LITERALLY ZERO DOWNSIDES EVERYONE SHOULD BE A PROGRAMMER

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@drob @nasowasaberooch I refer you to my pinned tweet on this matter

@gnarf @slightlylate Unfortunately humans are imperfect, so it is better to build processes that expect hidden bias and design around it.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gnarf @slightlylate not just gender. Race too. Also if you're pregnant, or old.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gnarf @slightlylate I don't see why this is even a tiny bit controversial. It's about the work, not the person. Always has been, always should be, forever.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gnarf @slightlylate I'm saying in explicit interview processes, knowledge of the interviewee is a negative. See https://t.co/hiXVoC1Vq9

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@slightlylate right, I'm saying all "interview" processes (like pull requests) adopt intentional obfuscation of name and avatar

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lizardbill What, you don't type with actual guns? https://t.co/C0uQpr47AK

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Beschizza But in ours? Not really. We will be close.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Beschizza To be fair, fully autonomous cars are the one thing I expect to happen for absolute sure in our children's lifetimes.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@loremgibson Hmm how to do? Details?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SuperDalgas Bring lots of money -- be sure to get the A Team!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevinmontrose I feel you can measure this by screen size, almost. Having two things side by side is ESSENTIAL, see: iPad large model

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@dinapomeranz @Independent for example this https://t.co/fAcLzSlva3 is pretty bleeding edge emoji stuff

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@dinapomeranz @Independent I believe they just added the skin tones, so combinations would be a step beyond that. They have combos for man + doctor, woman + doctor now

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Independent @dinapomeranz I believe this is more of a technical limitation than an intentional choice at the moment, Unicode consortium needs to define combinations

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jamonholmgren @cwodtke hopefully not the wingsuit kind, since that seems to be the most problematic

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cwodtke @SavedYouAClick Interesting to have a "sport" where nobody can survive. More like a suicide cult, really

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cwodtke @SavedYouAClick So the subtext is "why are so many *expert* base jumpers dying" and noobs alike.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cwodtke @SavedYouAClick Did you read the whole article? The woman whose husbands both died? Both experts with hundreds, thousands of jumps

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cwodtke @SavedYouAClick There is no correlation between experience and survivability, which is super disturbing

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cwodtke @SavedYouAClick It is a very interesting article; check it out and see

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@yamthatiam We are nowhere near 5 years away on VR. 20, *maybe*

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mikewadecodes @pjbeardsley Yes it is fake, great except gets very hot in the sun like sand does!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@axlotl Chris this is inappropriate. Now get in the car.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Jessicae13Eaton Which forum was this, out of curiosity?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard What if they are wearing a flower in their hair

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard I think the Trump news cycle took care of that for them

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jonobacon That sign is everywhere in CA you have not seen it before? At every pool I have been to...

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jonobacon I just pooped my pants

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard Consolation prize, you can be mayor of Yemen

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Beschizza Don't worry. Soon the baby will be punching you

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@TravisOwens @inovae_keith There are some clunkers in the seasons. The avatar politics one, the VR game one come to mind

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@TravisOwens @inovae_keith Season 2 white Christmas is not to be missed!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@inovae_keith try season 3 episode 1, please

@codinghorror
@johnolilly I just invested $200k in your tweet
