@nitashatiku @Pinboard Zuck is definitely problematic, but I'd probably vote for him... then again I'd vote for a ham sandwich over Trump

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles you can also see me wearing my @BillB influence on my sleeve here

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard yeah true any company can do anything they want to the president with zero fear of government repercussions today

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard 100% agreed but it has to wind its way through the court system to be decided / forced. Democracy ain't a speedy process

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@itdeano oh wait here you go lol https://t.co/Mi7INMGYjB

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@itdeano it's already been done https://t.co/G5xbh4HitC (would be cooler as backpack, but gravity)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles ha that is my thing I created. https://t.co/qspB3h0EY8

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard what we need is a Twitter poll, which snail is fastest WHICH ONE

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard @romanlevin yes but note that the popular play Hamilton features Jefferson so he is de facto cool beans, QED

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard @romanlevin even in the early 90s when I was at UVa, they taught about the slave contradictions in Jefferson's work. It was widely known, not hidden.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard as a graduate of the university of virginia I am required by law to disagree with this statement

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tuexss that stuff is useless in real reality, much less augmented or virtual

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Supermathie (audible gasp)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@chetfaliszek @Wolpaw well that is true he did not quad-handedly found gamergate

@codinghorror
@mrpcoIIins I don't think so, just a lot of work to do. regardless would be an hourly gig.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SparkyRobot Be sure to practice your p-p-pok.. ah I can't bring myself to keep typing

@codinghorror
@tobermatt Why work hard to build content when you can just cheat your way to the top?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT @krrishd @tiffani That is a problem, but these stats also concern me deeply, more systemic https://t.co/CqKRhmhjIp

@KristyT Corollary to old people being basically the enemy. Old entrenched biases.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT P.s. Kids are really good at figuring this stuff out. They quickly learn that adults lie to them, even when not trying to

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT I personally find it is often better to tweet links, ideally links to data, or a good story that fills in the gaps. Best fit to 140 chars

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT I don't think Twitter is a good place to have a nuanced convo on complex topics

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@chadbraunduin @KristyT Where did I say this is not the case? History full of action and thus results. More interconnection, more visibility, more action.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT Understood. I withdraw. Our children will have to figure it out.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT Well, I think what you have done is pretty remarkable and I would call that a data point!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT Lots of data to look at here though. That's what I am referring to.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT I think increased longevity has had profoundly detrimental effects on social change. And peak grey is yet to arrive..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@migueldeicaza No from their perspective every man woman and child on earth should have an account so it is more akin to government free speech

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Beschizza Perils of literally 1998 codebase. Tech debt on old code is enormous.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT @mikemchargue perhaps, but we're officially going backwards in time now, not forwards. It will get worse because rot starts from the head of the fish.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mikemchargue @KristyT The tacit approval from the highest elected office in the land is very new, though. At least in the post civil rights era.

@makehacklearn Once you remove gaming from the equation it is easy, almost any small box is fine. Still a fan of Skull Canyon, but Kaby Lake for video too

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@makehacklearn External thunderbolt 3 makes it a lot more viable

@jim_e_clark @theodoredziuba they are perfectly free to express whatever they want, just not on company time, at a given company. Go assemble in the town square.

@theSimplex @templarian @jcoene @elonmusk when your micro game is within 1ms of optimal, it does. Lane farming and hitting becomes perfect.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@templarian @jcoene @elonmusk a team demo would have been a lot more interesting. compare 1vs1 in counter-strike with infinitely fast, perfect aiming "AI". Yay.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT The founder of Smashing Mag said their ad revenue declined 50% in a few years so they started a conf.. to make $$

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT I am with you 100% on this

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevinmontrose it is such an annoying word. Worse than "moist" https://t.co/dlc19UoHbk

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevinmontrose using the word "doxxing" should also be a fireable offense

@jongalloway @kevindente Disk cache

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente @jongalloway yes this is a shameful number, I am disappoint.. 32GB minimum, ideally 64GB

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lizardbill This is why I said almost never

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@dangrenfell 105% accurate

@alexpaulhofmann @Pinboard maybe one day we can get two tech employee unions to kiss

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@alexpaulhofmann @Pinboard union blockchain, a tool for empowering tech employee union organizing!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ID_AA_Carmack @pervognsen We did eventually add a time gate because random from 10 years ago turns out not to be so great

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ID_AA_Carmack @pervognsen In Discourse we show suggested topics at the bottom of a topic, went with random early on, and kept it because it worked well.

@ftrain all my kid 80s angst about nuclear war has transferred to climate change, which feels a lot more "boiling the frog" deadly

@JasonPunyon accuse them of a-hole signaling

@deadprogrammer @Neurogami We use controller with htpc weekly and it is reliable for us! Indie games can have shitty code though, ask me about 4K DPI insanity

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer @Neurogami Check in the steam store page the ones with full controller support are clearly marked as such!

@danluu does this account for smartphone / cell based internet use?

Jeff Atwood

@danluu by "many" you mean roughly 20%?

@codinghorror
@owencm they are also interrupted by children with greater frequency than men

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@owencm yeah, but it also disproves the knee jerk "everything is broken and unfair".. there's more nuance. Nuance is good.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard this is pure fantasy, the political repercussions would be so painful.. plus, he'd just move to Facebook or some other platform

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nbashaw @leahculver I work from home so I spend so little time travelling from point A to B

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nbashaw @leahculver rare for me to do so, but when I do, I listen in the web browser, like some kind of animal

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JeroenRombouts I do as LeBouf does in all things

@siracusa @TheTrepanier I am still unbelievably bitter the PS4 pro does not support 4K blu-ray. That is some bullshit. I was gonna buy one!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@eviltrout do you have a 4k set?
