@paulg "firing" is a completely false equivalency.

@tqbf maybe I wrote it badly but it read fine to me. Anyways "fire an employee" is a bonkers way to describe that

@tqbf yes, that is why I said, I fail to see the equivalence.

@mikl read through the replies to the tweet, please

@wjt1321 for some context, see https://t.co/x1p3ijTUHw

@kragen @MightyPork for context, see https://t.co/x1p3ijTUHw

@MarkWaldron @shippage dudes are into secrecy on this stuff. Big, BIG time. That's why other men don't see it like women do. It is truth.

@tqbf I dunno, I've never been wrong about anything yet

@MarkWaldron @shippage https://t.co/x1p3ijCjPY

@tqbf it's like you're *inviting* him to triple down

@Beschizza I'd buy the sticker version

@Carnage4Life it's not a traditional "employee" relationship in any way, shape, or form. Nor is it remotely "his job"

@Carnage4Life cut ties <> fired. This is an utterly false equivalency. Like having a racist uncle. Still your uncle, you can't "fire" him.

@xor back to work

@TauPowered @tqbf like I said, if it is not your first kid and not your first startup, go for it. Otherwise the odds you will fuck up: 95%

@tqbf I agree it is *possible* in the same way jumping buses on a motorcycle is possible. But exceptional difficulty level.

@tqbf has zero to do with the company culture and 100% to do with internal headspace

@tqbf consider that you may be perpetuating the toxic myth of invincibility. That shit is dangerous. And you are wrong.

@tqbf yeah it was all my fault. Good point. You had what it takes. I didn't.

@tqbf I would say iron man / iron woman we can do it all is the real toxic myth here. Don't sign up for that shit and I reject it from you

@ericlaw @tqbf yeah singling out a gender is the real problem here. Startups suck the marrow from your bones and then some

@tqbf I nearly had a nervous breakdown doing it, so I don't recommend it. Ymmv I guess

@tqbf I would not recommend anyone with children take on a startup, ever

@Pinboard @deadprogrammer @abolibibelot get back to us when you are a billionaire

@jwatte that's why simply rendering the center at higher res and deferring on the edges might be better

@hashhar hmm, I think the twitter replies were more accurate. I doubt those specific incidents can correlate.

@SparkyRobot I will probably blog it in the next couple days

@chownlife I don't think the current state of VR is particularly great either https://t.co/0AATkfxxdq

@chownlife so back then you'd render 1 of the 3 available pixels at full res?

@johnolilly https://t.co/CCNohcjZIV

@paulg this is sadly true

@joshmillard @waxpancake https://t.co/2hB38yYxKX

@buildbreakdo how did you even get there? It's invalid to link without www. or blog. so where did the link come from?

@textfiles that's a great start though! I have heard very good things about that podcast.

@textfiles yeah, it's tough for me to allocate time to listening to podcasts

@ID_AA_Carmack have you read this? I recommend it https://t.co/tFw57oNpqM

@cshirky "everyone carries a smartphone 24/7" is also new in the last 5 years IMO. Prior to 2011 smartphones were power user stuff.

@JasonPunyon @jzy Oh hey Jason how's it goi... (runs away)

@infogulch @eviltrout https://t.co/hp4vO8fDqV

@eviltrout "if there’s any phone that is worth 650-750 USD at its base, it’s the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus" https://t.co/0hDzsQYKAX

@JasonPunyon eeeek

@eviltrout iPhone 7, then. Android is just not an option at retail

@eviltrout Apple screen repair is $129 at the Apple Store

@paulg we rich white people should stick together

@gknauss AW LIGHTEN THE HELL UP KNAUSS

@ftrain tell me what u gonna do

@deadprogrammer you gotta be cruel to be kind

@AdamWeinstein @tqbf capital gains tax rate break is a hell of a drug.

@JasonPunyon ouch man

@cshirky @WaltFrench the nextdoor and airbnb casual discrimination is disturbingly common as well: https://t.co/an7tBcbJRr

@waxpancake @TiVo wait wait wait is this real?

@balpha this'll do for a good time but not a good app but it does it work well worth the time to try to it all fine with the user experience

@krmaher @montserratboix wouldn't it be weird for the first female presidential candidate not to call out women specifically?

@krmaher @montserratboix what would the correct phrasing be? Just "humans"?

@krmaher @montserratboix what percentage of the population is that?

@rands @algard should be in the FAQ most certainly

@rands @algard wouldn't this be required to correlate incoming call numbers with people that are OK, e.g. already on your contact list?

@tqbf nobody does! That's the problem!

@tqbf sunk cost fallacy

@cshirky deez nutz with a travel budget

@JayHanlon @twobree I hope you like candy corn!! It tastes like emulsified shame.

@twobree @StackOverflow did you want one? @JayHanlon can get you fixed up, I bet :)

@splattne @balpha I was gonna try this but I disabled that bar on iOS :(

@PatrickHyatt the video is fantastic too

@baconmeteor I DEMAND A REFUND. Wait I need to read it first

@tqbf it's goddamned presidential is what it is

@marcgravell @df07 @aalear @rla4 it is a fundamentally asymmetric situation; assuming perfect symmetry in all things is the wrong path.

@marcgravell @df07 @aalear @rla4 it's a rule, a guideline, not a perfect system of binary code. But it's true: https://t.co/uat48hn0ju

@marcgravell @df07 @aalear @rla4 this gets into "punching up" vs. "punching down". It is OK to punch up. See: https://t.co/YmYujSV3zo

@rands Swords & Poker Adventures, You Must Build a Boat, Dungeon Raid

@balpha @shog9 @aalear you know what's funny, people do want the ability to forward arbitrary emails into Discourse though. It's coming!

@balpha @shog9 @aalear I do! Good times.. good times.. you can mail team@discourse.org these days. We auto-feed that into @discourse though.

@balpha @shog9 @aalear ahhh there we go :D Still don't think that's possible in gmail. Ask on https://t.co/522J1RaFcd perhaps? ;)

@shog9 @aalear otoh, @balpha is still annoyed I didn't forward email to him the "right" way .. with headers.. or something.. ;)

@shog9 @balpha @aalear overriding default profile text is already possible, but you can't override image here. That's the bug.

@LasPent @TauPowered Says.. who? https://t.co/1RENarG4oZ

@timbray it also seemed awfully fishy to me that this was a picture in the rain with lots of built in "noise"

@jonkoops see https://t.co/a3FyoWpZYH

@mattcutts @BrandonBouier I do not but some of the replies to this tweet said the gps can be sketchy on it

@Gryzor I already tweeted that! You bring shame on your family!

@kevinmontrose @JasonPunyon this is the kind of "out of the box" thinking that needs to be put right back in the damn box

@forgetyan in this case it is Samsung and they do customize the hardware, not just shovel out more Qualcomm

@LeaVerou I'm a bit of a speed junkie and I noticed the speed difference from 6s+ to 7. It's an even bigger diff 6 to 7.

@LeaVerou what were you upgrading from? But yeah it's the same basic design as the 6. The 10 year anniversary iP 8 will be the big redesign

@c64_gio @SwiftOnSecurity @k1sul1 I agree, I *like* Google and I *like* Android (post 5.0). Qualcomm is crap.

@SwiftOnSecurity @k1sul1 I _highly_ doubt the results would be significantly different for any modern Android device of your choice

@Beschizza this is what success looks like https://t.co/4v8agKD15o

@xyrer that's the fastest Android device out there right now.

@kryshiggins @paulapostolos @zeldman unfortunately JanRain sells an auth service so not an ideal reference, any others to add?

@DJB31st @mscrivo @FinnTurner0 see also https://t.co/zqLKEbXvpl total carnage

@DJB31st @mscrivo @FinnTurner0 lol "slightly" try 2x - 3x.

@DJB31st @FinnTurner0 @mscrivo interesting, I see absolutely no evidence of that here: https://t.co/aYlazp0D11

@cwodtke @lauraklein I can't stop laughing about this. WIN

@cwodtke this quote should be on the front of the book!

@bernaferrari let us pray on this matter 🙏

@bernaferrari @kevindente this.. does not surprise me. Qualcomm is bad at a very great number of things.

@kevindente she's tied to the Google ecosystem, which I do like! The Qualcomm shovelware hardware it is delivered on, not so much!

@momoetomo @stuartawillson @bijan execution. focus. knowing what you ARE. Twitter was successful in spite of itself.

@momoetomo @stuartawillson @bijan I can literally name 10 other things that took them years, which Facebook would have done in months.

@momoetomo @stuartawillson @bijan no. even simple little stuff, like "URL shortener" took YEARS for them to put together. Years!
