@bijan I'm a big fan! But at the same time, there's no question that Twitter has not become all it could be, due to lack of direction/focus

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bijan I agree, but it is also true that Twitter doesn't know what to do with Twitter at a very deep level, demonstrated across years..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@DJB31st @mscrivo @FinnTurner0 cores getting electricity is not reflected in any actual web benchmarks, sadly.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon @shog9 @jc4p @sklivvz it doesn't make sense; how would people outside the US be able to even vote in the US? Make a meta topic.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mattthr dropbox and crap like that

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mscrivo @FinnTurner0 Qualcomm is a huge problem. Android basically *is* Qualcomm at this point and that is not working.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@timbray On the 3.. battery wore out? how replaceable was it?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@asendra_ I don't love her that much

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mattthr iTunes is truly awful, but you can mostly avoid it on iOS for the last few years. I have, anyway..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mscrivo @FinnTurner0 yeah, but single thread is 90% of real world perf, unless you regularly encode videos on your phone..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mattthr no significant performance difference there per the benchmarks I've seen. Compare: iPhone 7.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@patio11 not on twitter, I ain't. That's like "fuck the reader" territory :(

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@addyosmani @tomdale that said less bytes sent is always better. I also wish Apple would attack the low end but that's never gonna happen.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@addyosmani @tomdale there is deep fault on both sides. Ember has made so many broken promises, and Android JS perf is fucking embarrassing

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@slightlylate @tomdale if Apple cared they could 100% run the table on Android, by pursuing the low end. They never will though.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@matthew_d_green @marcprecipice ICE COOOOOLD

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tomdale @eviltrout @slightlylate my iPhone 7 is *faster* than my i7-4770k in some https://t.co/t6RwL8JEE8 benchmarks now. I shit you not.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@samsaffron have you tried the melatonin? It works for me, and @kevinmontrose has seconded

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon we need a three party system so bad it hurts

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon only served to people in a particular 6 states, I hope?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mattfarina @davidwbarratt the gap has widened further if anything. Qualcomm is fucking up big time.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@dholth exactly now it's even worse, clones of design and *price*, much worse perf.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@rbonini @kevindente cool if 55 inch touchscreen monitors were reasonably priced, then it would "just work" with win10, sorta

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente yes we call that a "computer"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@johnslegers @bitdozer @crossphd start your own discussion site and use it. Or go elsewhere. It is a big internet. Use it.

@balpha this is upper management thinking you have truly arrived

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@balpha I am down with a collective retconning to Sour Orange

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@eclecticsteve we need a three party system

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bitdozer @crossphd @johnslegers people *desperately* want SO to be discussions. It ain't and will never be. Watch the video closely.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bitdozer @crossphd @johnslegers feel free to view this for a much deeper explanation if you don't like my TL;DR https://t.co/BCgPjqEHO4

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bitdozer @crossphd @johnslegers TL;DR if you want a truck, buy a truck. Complaining the car is insufficiently truck-like just gets.. old.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bitdozer @crossphd @johnslegers it is literally the same old arguments over and over, since 2010. I know what they'll say before clicking.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer I humbly request you give @samsaffron a tour, he is moving to NYC in Jan for a year.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@joshmillard this is just wrong

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer you should visit! You have an open invitation from me any time. We can box the Blue Apron orders in the cold together.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@otikik one of us probably had a lot more American History classes. Feel free to correct me on this ;)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer it is in Richmond, CA almost walking distance from me! Really!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@otikik you should look at the facts and data around Trump. It is literally unprecedented in American history.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@otikik you are wrong. Deeply wrong.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@otikik nah it is the truth in this case. Bush 2 (Dubya) wasn't terrifying just mediocre.

@deadprogrammer Windows 95 was released in 1995

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@johnolilly enterprise licenses, surely

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@matthewburton @cshirky it is the volumes of people, not individual salaries, that is the basis of the claim

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@AAbbottBC @stewart I downgraded our plan to free because I have been so consistently disappointed in the search. But I blame chat as genre

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@stewart I recently got a random gmail search hit on a gtalk chat about Stack Overflow in 2008. I re-read; nothing useful but nostalgia

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@stewart the last time I searched for a word I knew *had* to be said in 2015 and got zero results.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf this depends which emoji set is selected. seriously

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@stewart essentially we learned if you want to truly remember something, you do it outside chat. Forgetting Is A Feature.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@stewart I tried several times and got very frustrated. I kind of gave up on chat as a searchable thing in general.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@rands meetings are only as good as what is achieved as a direct result of the meeting

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@rands can you screenshot your battery usage page? Here is mine https://t.co/ukCLvGIVBC

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf I have noticed a few like this in my spam folder in GMail (I check it about once a week) but they never seem to make it to my mailbox.

Jeff Atwood

@JasonPunyon you can't mute me Punyon THE VOICE IS COMING FROM INSIDE YOUR HEAD

@aeden I am here with 8 other members of the Discourse team, spending the night at a castle. Don't have the name yet.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@betsyphd you mean cybord. CYBORD!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon I will let you know if I see anything good.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon this mini tweet storm was not good.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SparkyRobot mom is really hitting her stride tonight

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mathowie I hope you are right, but I am skeptical. Trump is not running on facts and data.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@miguelatwork @twitskeptic @timbray get back to me when you have watched this video in its entirety: https://t.co/BCgPjqEHO4

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lizardbill it was a good hour

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@twitskeptic @timbray see this presentation which covers why it works the way it works https://t.co/BCgPjqEHO4

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@adamcaudill boils down to truck vs. car. "Why can't this car be a truck, too?"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@adamcaudill you should build an alternative if you feel so strongly about it.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@adamcaudill feel free to watch this presentation, which explains why it works this way: https://t.co/BCgPjqEHO4

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@adamcaudill SO has a strict ruleset. If this does not meet your needs, feel free to find another site with a looser ruleset.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@twitskeptic @timbray SO has a strict ruleset. Feel free to use another site on the Internet with a ruleset more to your liking.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@timbray the old 2015 article? Usually these are all "how *dare* you close my question!"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ladisonline it is clear enough. "Please tip your guides"

@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer there is a resemblance.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles @mathowie naw it'd be like the internet archive having a spring cleaning every year to delete obsolete stuff. Counter to purpose

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles @mathowie I was telling people how awful hipchat and campfire and irc are for years. Skype so bad I don't consider it a chat tool

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mathowie except for the whole not hiring remote thing, particularly odd for a remote chat tool

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mathowie aw now I feel a little bad. stack overflow is not open source so it just depends what the goals are

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mathowie start by open sourcing the software

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Beschizza revenge against.. what?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gknauss this is what happens when you don't learn your words

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@marcprecipice @mathowie do you recommend?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@TedDennison @kemitchell sorry to hear that! Glad they will live on to fight another day!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@TedDennison @kemitchell I am having a lovely afternoon and I trust you two gentleman are as well. 🎩

@codinghorror
@ChrisVermilion @lizardbill I can't train myself into pro level at (X), and even if I could it may take a decade?
