@ChrisVermilion @lizardbill not exactly, if they are hiring for an athlete of a certain caliber..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lizardbill why does it feel any different than "hiring for skill X that I don't have?" and should it feel any different?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cwodtke if only the camera was better :D

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ironicsans interesting https://t.co/s9blNOXy3t

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kemitchell @TedDennison I want you both to have INCREDIBLE nights. The best!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Beschizza yes but what about meeeeeeeeeeeee

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Beschizza hmm, what does this mean I am? A crony?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon it is a perfectly cromulent word

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon "performant" https://t.co/7uImjOzA17

@codinghorror
@andiih @migueldeicaza I use that too but when I take my glasses off, it stops working. So I have to go find my glasses to log in...

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@migueldeicaza it is about the journey, not the destination. Do you feel cool? Do you LOOK cool?

@natbro when people ask me how something went, I also answer "Pretty good. Nobody was killed. Yet."

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@natbro I also like "Drive dangerously! Take lots of risks!" which I say a lot. Driving safely is boring.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf TL;DR make sure people who aren't white get to vote. Drive them if necessary. In contested states, of course!

@johnolilly "beer me" drones

@johnolilly self-driving vehicles is the one big "AI" thing I think will truly come to pass in our lifetimes.

@codinghorror
@shog9 @tinkertim @JasonPunyon and how many people drive stick? Hell, I don't want to drive at *all*; hopefully my kids won't need to.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@shog9 @tinkertim @JasonPunyon *building* your own car versus buying one.. is a mess. You're buring the lede so hard here.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@paulmwatson @shog9 even worse the NOBILITY and BEAUTY of coding, jesus christ, get off my lawn people!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@shog9 @JasonPunyon @paulmwatson buy a plugin perhaps, never, NEVER write code. That is a trail of tears you don't want to be on.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@shog9 @paulmwatson very, very few. Configuring WordPress or another CMS, on the other hand...

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@shog9 @paulmwatson it's the job of the auto mechanic, which is more analogous to what a coder is. The best code is zero code.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon You are an inspiration to us all, Jason

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon you show that operating system who is boss!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@marcprecipice hmm. I disagree, I felt it was objective and reflected the difficulty and scale they face

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Gryzor why not USB controller??

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@marcprecipice long term donating to reduce voter suppression .. a surprisingly big problem in our democracy .. seems best strategy to me

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@marcprecipice what makes me crazy is, you gotta vote in contested states or it basically doesn't matter. PoC will determine this election.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf also, most of all, I pray the dude who ratted out Manning suffers extreme karmic justice.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf I predict neither will get any clemency whatsoever, I will be (pleasantly!) surprised if Manning does not eventually die in custody.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf I suspect Manning will eventually die in custody, which is why Snowden should never come back. Love to be proven wrong though.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@waxpancake @joshmillard (grabs the spray water bottle)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@marcprecipice act now how, exactly? Calls to action should provide a default that works.

@chetfaliszek we need a fuck off bot

@siracusa I'll see you in Battlefield 1, which might be the best one they've ever made. Codename Eagle redux.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bookercodes anything by @jonskeet is going to be magnificent

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon pretty tame compared to the productivity loss of "Jason Punyon will code this himself"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@squigiliwams I'll play it when it comes to PC

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Greenspeak Where you at, dog? https://t.co/U54AGC5p4b

@pinchito I never said it made sense!

@codinghorror
@KristyT I have had a lot of bad watermelon before. Tasteless.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ircri what size drives? Zero manufacturer info? :(

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mattcutts verdict? I like the quesarito as well

@codinghorror
@siracusa Kaby Lake seems like a minor update. Mostly adding better 4K and HDR 10-bit decoding.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@siracusa how many Macs are been on Skylake at this point? One? Two?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@giant_niggler do not even get @samsaffron started about that

@codinghorror
@jc4p @kevinmontrose @EricLichtblau it is also true rate of social change is accelerating, first black president ever, next first woman ever

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevinmontrose @jc4p @EricLichtblau the system isn't just unfair, it is systemically unfair and growing more so every day. Break it?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NinjaPotts I know this cartoon can vote, drink, and graduate from college!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jc4p @kevinmontrose @EricLichtblau the scary thing is millions and millions of fellow Americans voted for this, and will vote for this

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Nick_Craver ducking right it can

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Nick_Craver not even remotely the same thing, though, than one of the central figures telling people explicitly NOT to care.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Nick_Craver nah perf is easy as hell on .NET. Nobody regularly tells you, "oh you gotta use this C gem everyone uses for speed.."

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley you mean apps like ... iOS? (confused look)

@stekoshy closer to galaxy note 7, there is software impact on Chrome optimizations per platform

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@balpha unfortunately the type of men who do this crap usually only do it when no other men are around to intervene

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@sbrown23 so much worse in percentage terms though

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@xor most bad movies are spoiled food, not differently tasting food.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@xor I dunno this is like saying. 'Some people enjoy spoiled milk'.. I guess?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ironicsans maybe this? https://t.co/XhVWdbvywS

@codinghorror
@dluxem so the SSD number is "failed in last 12 months"?

Jeff Atwood

@ironicsans I got used to Kindle Voyage so I am used to this too

@scottwasson 4k display is required for any kind of passable mobile VR. It's gonna be.. a while..
