@brettberson @johnolilly I'm surprised anyone noticed! Awesome to be any part of this glorious holiday institution.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@waxpancake even better: I just read the Wikipedia summaries.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cwodtke just donate money to the right orgs. No need to talk.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ebenwert Holy balls that is long

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@user24 that happened less than a mile from us once. I remember the helicopters. It was chilling.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@waxpancake what the helllll

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@anastasialie83 wow 20s! I wish we had caught this cancer earlier, there was some chance, but it was super aggressive. a few months

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jeffrey @johnolilly pageviews baby pageviews

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jeffrey @johnolilly guys it's called "journalism"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@AdamTuttle 2013 was very good imo but I agree before that lots of weak years

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ericnakagawa not sure, email team@stackoverflow.com

@codinghorror
@johnnygf ad retargeting is a bitch, ain't it?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@rolfje nobody is saying that.. enjoy arguing with the strawman! he's fun.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@rolfje children = adults? good luck with that

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@rolfje it is nowhere even remotely the same

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nicksahler I always hated the reddit alien, but he looks much cooler fat for some reason

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lordeagle @davidwalshblog ... doubtful

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ElissaBeth @davidwalshblog I looked it up and it's boring, it is goofy people misspelling "enhancement". I WANTED ENCHANTMENTS

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jongalloway @davidwalshblog try female(space)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mthistle @ID_AA_Carmack of course and Dark Knight. Super rare though. I would also put Alan Moore Swamp Thing run in there.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ID_AA_Carmack I find that as I get older, comics rarely hold up. We grew up but they didn't.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jerwood nope, I mean iPad Air 1 performance. Severely memory constrained.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cdixon it's going to win because the taxi incumbents are too dumb to change

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gruber @DanHarrelson eh, some of it is mechanical. Give us left justified option. Use the TeX hyphenation rules.Why is that taking so long?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gruber I kind of get the feeling that job doesn't exist right now though. So bad.

@johnolilly my favorite thing about VR is reading VCs who describe buying a Windows PC to try it. The future is here!!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@metsfan if you had a paperwhite 2, maybe, but the 1? Not even close

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@johnolilly Not sure it matters; we are in the Apple Newton era of VR right now. So early, still.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles the only solution is more tweets, lot more tweets

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles this is how a lot of people work. You and I are outliers with this.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gregorysean if you can listen with empathy to the person spitting in your face, you are a better man than me. I walk away.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gregorysean eye for an eye and everyone is blind. And deaf. It's bad advice.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gknauss fax, e-mail, AND paging

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ilovefluffy @TheCraigPaul this is still my favorite response by far

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@waxpancake I am saddened at the lack of ethics in your game journalism

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@erikb @polemitis I so rarely use my "phone" as a phone

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@fmanjoo @johnolilly Oneboxing. Yeah they have started to do this for a lot more stuff.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cwodtke sure maybe I can set an instance up for you, we always like feedbacks

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cwodtke sure email me at jatwood@codinghorror.com

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cwodtke There is always @discourse

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deanputney here's a good chaser https://t.co/UoO9IOFArr

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@codinghorror so outbrain or taboola?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@drhogie the "we're real stable so we use ancient versions of everything" distros are suuuuper annoying

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley NB: I graduated from UVa. Funny thing, my wife told me she thought the story was weird when she read it originally, b4 contro.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley do you really think a fraternity would have some kind of sexual thing as part of their initiations in today's world?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley well yeah but even Rolling Stone was backing away from their own story. That's.. not good.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@betsyphd UNSUBSCRIBE ME FROM THIS LIST

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@foxjust @AdrianArtiles it's probably because I have 150k followers and I retweeted it. Not a global tech conspiracy, though.. MAYBE

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@AdrianArtiles @foxjust we should hire some lawyers

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@foxjust @mason_bryant I also got really excited thinking that nobody wanted to be a lawyer any more. Dreams CAN come true, people.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@foxjust @mason_bryant the title says "empty classrooms" so I assumed enrollment was down to near zero. 40k - 52k is, what, a 23% drop?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@foxjust @mason_bryant eh, a little bit. I didn't even notice the bottom axis was 44k, so that surprised me after Mason's comment.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@johnolilly I feel a tweetstorm coming on

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@damienkatz have you considered sniffing glue

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ILOVETHEHAWK @louis_simoneau @SlackHQ this happens to me in direct message channels. Talking to one person, forget, mention @name.. nothing

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SlackHQ @ILOVETHEHAWK @louis_simoneau yeah it is not happening for me, did I turn that warning off somehow?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SamuelAAdams @rossrubin Legos

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@hypesystem @SlackHQ it does not for me though. Did I somehow turn that off? So confused

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@burrowingsec @snipeyhead really he's kind of a dick if you think about it

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jongalloway regular people have a very high tolerance for "oh weird computer stuff I can't control". Very very high.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@johnolilly I feel like Apple is falling prey to The Strategy Tax in the last few years

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@johnolilly there is a lot of iOS and OSX that is not awesome these days

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jongalloway yes, this has interesting griefing potential. See; NAMBLA

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@elfettey and then you realize getting yourself presents is kind of empty, in the end

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@elfettey this is good! I'm kind of anti-present, when it comes to grown ups. I grew up so I could get myself all the presents I wanted.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kirkwoll well for adults, I mean. Kids always get gifts of course :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@505omatic @BillB @ILOVETHEHAWK the bruiser-12000 is 12k lumens!! http://t.co/ePt8vW1HXj I'm getting this for you, Budge.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ILOVETHEHAWK @BillB well you know, sometimes you want some LIGHT

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@BillB @ILOVETHEHAWK wow only 3 hour runtime even on low! To be fair the PD35 is 3h on high (460), 1h on turbo (960)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@eviltrout but you know enjoy your racist travel mug

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@siracusa I like the iOS 7 and 8 makeover. Android 5 is even better though (from a UI perspective). Shame about the perf..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ILOVETHEHAWK I am offended, I say, OFFENDED that you would have to ask! http://t.co/IelvwBdjql

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ILOVETHEHAWK that's not a knoife

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@2ndClassClown well this is awkward

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cjc @marcprecipice @stripe have you considered @discourse for some of these use cases? Our mail support is fairly robust.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@seesharp do you want it in Cherry Red, or Midnight Blue

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mikelikesbikes you know maybe I guess? If you're into this? https://t.co/0RH0dShYvH

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles I can't even parse this text. Who what where when what now?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@dahankzter coding is auto repair, plumbing, fax machine troubleshooting. So.. no.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@LaceySnr @pbattisson I don't code. Period. No longer a good use of my time.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@LaceySnr @pbattisson I've already stopped. Hard to explain but at a certain point code stops being the right tool. http://t.co/8vP2xfSZaf

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@LaceySnr @pbattisson the only way to stop the cycle is to stop coding.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@superscott3000 everyone should be able to fix a car? be a plumber? I dunno, cooking = eating = fundamental to life. Code is not.
