@RichFelker @scaleway what are the specs of each core? These are Broadwell i5 2/4 at significant clock rate. They're quite fast.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@calbertof @kickstarter this is a real computer, intel celeron. pi is super slow.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ojrask Like I was gonna hump my 10 year old ass all the way to the library for that!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@davidlee @Headspace ohhhhh but they have 'em

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@davidlee @Headspace I just like to hear kids opinions directly about this kind of stuff. Adults have their own ideas ;)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Headspace @davidlee wait do your kids do this? what do they say about it?

@deanputney @Beschizza nah, it's like Instagram couldn't happen until cell phones with nominally non-shitty cameras existed

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deanputney @Beschizza I think we are at stage 0 of this game's virality, as well. Just the super early adopters now.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Beschizza sure, until the many zillion app store / play store clone games start appearing in 3..2..1..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Beschizza we will see, but I doubt it. The AR is a big part of this game's narrative. The Pokemon are "there"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Beschizza the Wii turned out to be an unsustainable gimmick in the long run. But it was still huge for a few years.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nexusCFX that's not bad, 20% faster. But not exactly earth shattering. Thanks for checking!!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Beschizza would there hav e been such buzz about a traditional 2d pokemon mobile game? or a VR pokemon game? I don't think so..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@literally_tho @mathowie @monteiro it just feels like this kind of shit is inevitable if we accept that every human has a default FB account

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@andrewhatfield pretty sure that's the lesson

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@seanparsons yeah musically it's not super awesome. The videos are incredible though.

@codinghorror
@Beschizza with sound off, I don't find that mega objectionable

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nerdblogpl 8 slow cores isn't better than 2 very fast cores. Quite the opposite.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@GoodBrain @nagendra_rao that would be more credible if Firefox on Android didn't perform _even worse_ than Chrome

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nexusCFX how does it do on https://t.co/CEEtY9vndK with just "render complex list" and Ember 1.11 selected?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nexusCFX there is a "snapdragon (cpu) browser??"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@theeJL 10% faster per qualcomm.. eh.. https://t.co/mF9GGVxUrK

@ID_AA_Carmack the best binary update mechanism of all time is Google's Courgette: https://t.co/WjIZSQ7JlC

@tqbf bootcamps are public, in a fashion, wayyy less opaque than say.. Uber. It is a well trodden, well understood path of education.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf basically I don't trust anyone, including myself.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf I just don't trust rando programmers to mentor other programmers in private without literal public oversight. That's Stack Overflow.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf let people of similar skill teach each other. There is always someone with more Kung Fu than you.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf paying for (higher) education is a well understood convention of society, isn't it?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf this is also like saying "everyone should home school their children, how hard can it be?"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf or we could just build Stack Overflow. That worked for me. YMMV

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf I would gladly pay $20k to not have my time absorbed by one on one mentoring of new programmers. It'd be a huge cost savings.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf holy shit newbie starting-from-scratch programmers will absorb all the time of one senior dev at *minimum*

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bradwilson @JasonImison @xunit so long as everything fits in the "issue" bucket and can be "resolved"!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bradwilson @JasonImison @xunit provided you never, ever need to remember anything past the last 10,000 chat replies ;)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jakejgordon sorry about that, try again. Some stuff was updated.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@seesharp sports is really bad in SD, lots of distant camera shots :(

@rkoutnik both cats died at the end of 2015 :(

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@xor I solve this problem by giving no fucks about Pokemans

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nso95 I guess I did not realize tattoos were so mainstream

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles Kansas is pretty good

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@eviltrout it's funny because in this specific case it was you!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SCdF47 this is avoiding the harder truths and realities.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SCdF47 people like to humor themselves and think that it isn't.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SCdF47 there is a buttload of casual and barely sublimated racism out there, for starters.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon the only time I have resented banks for failing to crush a company

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nscottg you don't even know what it feels like to be alive

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@toncijukic stupidity and human mistakes can never be fixed, just made less inherently lethal

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@stevie_wilks I am saying a lot of human stupidity could be a whole lot less fatal

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@hoverbird THIS AGGRESSION WILL NOT STAND, MAN

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jzy sorry I am so awesome at English

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@johnolilly I honestly think he does not understand the difference

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gknauss in the US that baby would have been tried and executed already

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT or "gender is a societal construct" or "gender is something we indoctrinate our children in"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT gender is fluid, anyone could be male or female at any time, gender differences are not significant

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT I am of the "gender is not destiny, exactly, but it is the source of the biggest real, measurable differences in human beings" camp

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT they relate better to future-possible-kings than future-never-ever-gonna-be-kings ;)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT it's similar. It says gender differences are big enough that fathers relate better to sons than daughters.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT funny how this traces all the way back to "produce a male heir" :P https://t.co/1P4pofnlrA

@codinghorror
@AdamMaras I came here to complain about this

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@shanselman @Nick_Craver the 850 Pro is the pinnacle of SATA based SSD. But if you want gigabytes/sec .. https://t.co/Io0v3vGKn6

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Gryzor well that is a bummer. But yeah, it's way overpriced for what it is, no question. Ours haven't had random disconnects though.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Gryzor weird we haven't seen cover not connected errors on our two. I agree it's not worth much extra $ though.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life slightly increased prices isn't listed?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@TedDennison dude that is in Unicode 9 look it up https://t.co/Hib2LAHYhb

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@liamstack @johnolilly I got the impression they wanted someone more diverse, e.g. not Yet Another White Person

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Nick_Craver @kevinmontrose also, tech debt can be handled when you are a richer company in the future with more employees, too.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SampsonMSFT We'd only be distributing PNG versions at "typical" resolutions, no vectors.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SampsonMSFT please, I want to fold these in, they're great: https://t.co/ObcLna3n7f

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mathowie I noticed this long ago on https://t.co/BQo9ZuibzA, cyclists vs motorists *always* a trigger topic. Very controversial.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer yeah all about sour milk from what I understand. American chocolate sucks, because Hershey's.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wwaibochi omg @deadprogrammer is this a thing?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Beschizza send them https://t.co/IcXwxvgJvW

@codinghorror
@xor I remember Prodigy doing the floppy disk thing, a little bit there towards the end?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jongalloway nice adding it to comments here https://t.co/7uImjOzA17

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ID_AA_Carmack what's the measured latency of a bluetooth controller?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@InterviewCake I do love me some @patio11 so let me try them!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ILOVETHEHAWK seems reasonable

@ILOVETHEHAWK may I recommend https://t.co/65HyXdyPvi
