@waxpancake I will be watching you closely Baio

@LeaVerou @github @discourse @mavoweb not every project is large enough to need one though.. for very simple low levels of "discussion" github issues is fine

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nanochess whyyy does pac-man disappear completely at times? No flicker, but that is worse!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lizardbill funny thing is Ms. Pac Man was quite good https://t.co/yz6Zeb3Ll0

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@LeaVerou @github this is why a parallel @discourse is a good idea, if the project is large enough to support it https://t.co/HF04QThJDZ

@codinghorror
@sulliops I hated, hated, HATED Stanley Parable. So much hate.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@snurre Lol there is a "badtime stories bundle"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@joshuatopolsky Surface pro keyboard cover is best in the game and has been since surface 3

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon Depends what kind of freaky data porn you are into

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon 32TB of crap in a 16TB bag

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@WPNapier Violently disagree. "Is it done rendering? Can anyone tell?" is significantly worse than simple top to bottom rendering

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@WPNapier how much is the other one "done", though?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@WPNapier nah, you get incremental top-down loading for free. Unlike "progressive" it is also clear how much is done.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kornelski nice, will try. `-interlace none` was showing no difference for us with imagemagick on jpegs

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@_beid I would argue 75% rendered from top to bottom is equivalent.. you've seen enough. And you know EXACTLY how much is left..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@_beid how do you know when it's done rendering? How much detail is right?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kornelski we are not seeing any filesize difference with `-interlace none` set on JPEGs.. can you provide data / proof of this?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kornelski pointless. you already get top to bottom rendering for free with zero file size increase.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Jimminy nah totally pointless, you already have a built in progressive rendering for free: renders top to bottom as it arrives

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kennethmayer Wow I forgot no camera or mic

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@DanDiplo I suggest they should not have purchased the iPad 1 at launch, in that case, and waited a few years..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@adrianoconnor you gotta love your children enough to get them iPad Pro, man

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@adrianoconnor it was a V1 product in a new category. You buy V1 product in a new category, you are playing with fire, period.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer Why? Speed to skip work?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@hbeschizza Low rider it is, then! ;)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@hbeschizza Still, if you haven't actually driven the odyssey, I would. To me it was dramatically better driving feel than the Toyota.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@xor Lately he has been less .. amusing

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@hbeschizza With only one kid you have some flexibility there, too many humans in our family

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@xor I dunno man, it was worth it for the conspiracy southern narrative around NASCAR and grits. The guy is quite funny.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@hbeschizza At least test drive the Honda Odyssey first, to me it did not drive at all like a minivan

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@hbeschizza Minivans are actually awesome! So much room

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life I don't even understand what this is

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ZachWeiner it is, but the only time you get to ditch a bunch of old stuff for good. Take advantage of that!!!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@matthiasvdh depends on the version, if you look a bit deeper. 4.2 has more.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard Internet Provocateur, baby

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson These are so good we love them

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mathowie hell I don't even think Siri (et al) are that useful

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer I need this

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kwiens Or y'know put it in your mouth https://t.co/6Z5eySokXE

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kwiens I have, seems like strong thin plastic not so much glass? How can I even tell?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec LOL. I'm sorry this is so upsetting to you. I wish Qualcomm would stop sucking quite so hard, too.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec apples to apples performance.. why pay full price for old phone? All you need to crush every single Android SoC ever, is a late 2014 iPhone.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec I'd recommend the 6s though for the 2GB of RAM, which will *demolish* any Android model you can buy. looks like $250-$350 used

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec a $100 iPhone 5s would render it plenty fast, or $200 iPhone 6 would render it even faster than the newest Android devices.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mathowie I went to a taco bell in ~1999 in Boulder that was testing this, I'm amazed it's taken so damn long to deliver!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec try loading https://t.co/VyGNjFzdKK or any modern website. Enjoy!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec Maybe if you load web pages exclusively with an ad blocker, but even then.. not really true today. Sorry!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec anyone who uses the modern web, *will* run into this. The only viable counterargument is "I never load web pages on my phone"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec minor correction, iPhone 6 gets 71 here. https://t.co/9jOFv2rqbP

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec Remember this graph? iPhone results -- 5s: 48, 6: 56, 6s: 119, 7: 171. So brand new $579 Android device = used iPhone 6 aka $225 https://t.co/hJy9Txbrv7

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@betsyphd @berkeleyside yes definitely

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec A $100 iPhone 5s would render it rather quickly. It's a damn shame Qualcomm is ~5 years behind on mobile CPUs.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@betsyphd @berkeleyside Kensington wouldn't that be very close to us?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec You should look closely at those numbers. nexus 6p is a pretty "fast" Android device too

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec It took multiple seconds on some Android devices https://t.co/a3FyoWpZYH

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nexusCFX @qualidafial Qualcomm on the other hand has a hammerlock on Android biz and they are abysmal

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@sarahjeong Is there a tier where I get to pet your cat? Asking for a friend.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@qualidafial This directly affects my business, for the record. Look it up!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@saraford that's a good one, I learned these from my Apple // days https://t.co/xDUYLFp10x

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life oh geez seriously? the timing is awfully coincidental for the "taking a break"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec A used iPhone would be dramatically faster, even reaching back to the iPhone 5s.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec So did the Yugo, for a while

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec So this $219 phone is 75% the speed of an ancient iPhone 5s .. that's just depressing

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec Unless you live in a country with abysmal cell coverage, that won't be true. JavaScript rules the web already.. much less 10y out

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec If you touch the web, you are not gonna have a good time. Iphone 7, 167, iPhone 6s, 119, iPhone 5s 48. https://t.co/fgpCSw64J5

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec Also an iPhone 6s would be 4x faster than that; anything under snapdragon 835 is well below iPhone 6 speeds

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec Sure as long as it never touches the modern web even for a second.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wspr I regret that I can only like this once

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec That is the beauty of current iOS hardware; twice the speed (more than 2x with a11x) at barely 1.5x the price

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec I dunno if you noticed but a ton of sports cars are sold every day. Plus "apple premium" now means "2x faster" not just more fancy bevels

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@var_tec 604kb really is enough for anyone

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@voidqk so.. uh.. don't let the marketing weasels do that to you? The base game IS the full $59.99 game.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JohnONolan this is relevant to @erlend_sh's interests!!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@goncalossilva at 4k? 300% on the HTPC

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@danluu Surprising because even by 2013 HL2 was 9 years old. NINE!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@siracusa I set it to low intensity white using the logitech software utility (and my desired DPI switch settings), then uninstalled it forever

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@thesmok all right, now I just know your standards are really, really low ;)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@thesmok wake me up when you're using wireless monitors ;)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@pschriner I install it, change the lighting (I also like wider DPI button range settings), then uninstall. Settings are in the mouse hardware then!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@metsfan I like the G502 but I prefer something smaller / quicker / simpler, but with same high quality!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@d_m_elms it was an amazing, inspiring story! thank you for sharing it!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@betsyweber @PatrickFoley Well this just shows what good taste you have Betsy

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@drob @kevinmontrose This is horrible

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@betsyweber @PatrickFoley you are very kind! Empathy is a process, and online doesn't make it easier..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gdinwiddie Yah it just auto slideshows all media (image or video) on the storage media automatically

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ibogost This is usually expressed in terms of "not this hill" though, so survival and priorities

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ibogost I think the idea is to choose a place, rather than having one chosen for you, or randomly dying in a random place

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JeffreyWiden Mine did not!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@sklivvz I do not think you understand this tweet
