@codinghorror
@kevinmontrose there are other stages?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@secretGeek OH MY GOD GET A JOB AGAIN PLEASE MY TWITTER CANT TAKE THIS

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles come on man don't you have ALL the floppies by now? Slacker.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wcgallego @snipeyhead not all patriarchies

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gknauss only about Romantimatic. That app makes me sick.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@waxpancake the funny thing is that I had to go listen to Steely Dan after reading that

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson oh I see it it is $75. I think your article could make that a LOT more prominent. Still not super enthused.. but..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson still not feeling it. The world of dual core was fantastic and new in 2006, not so much these days.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson dual core, that's a hard sell these days.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nabeel the hell is going on over there

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@timbray you are just griefing me now, griefers!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mathowie True it does say IPS. I dunno I just don't trust desktop monitors any more. phones and tablets have left them far far behind.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mathowie plus you'd definitely want retina for art. I see this as a great use for iPad. If only Apple made larger iPads!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mathowie ehhh $150 monitor is not great. the IPS stuff is more expensive for a reason. $150 might be TN, which is bad.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mathowie hmm, I'd be very worried about screen quality. Looks like a widescreen monitor? Not retina? iPad would maybe work better.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@pamelafox what @briancreeves said!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@PhoenixHawk @frrwhat I sincerely hope he does win a Nobel

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ztbrown donate a bug chunk of it for sure, to food causes

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT awesome! To be clear, I am not really a fan of the potato salad thing, but I have to concede that it was expertly played.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@delitescere @wadenick lol he deleted the phone app

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT that said I did not back it, and I would not back it. But I understand why it is working. Played exactly right to audience.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT I thought that initially, but then I looked at the details of the project. It's funny, it's art, it's surprisingly detailed.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT I see it as an art project.. it's kind of like complaining about art projects.. does that even make sense?

@codinghorror
@xyntrix OK, that text was written in 1971. Take it up with @JerryWeinberg the author of the original 1971 book.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@xyntrix the implied reading is that people tend to respect those who they think know more than they do. But if you don't, sure.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@snipeyhead I see that he and I both attended Harvard Debate Club! (twirls cape dramatically)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kepsico true, have not owned any Android devices long enough to know if performance rot sinks in w/new OS releases

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@johnolilly I knew the pendulum was going to swing really, really far after 9/11. That was my second reaction after horror.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@4everinbeta so does fax machine repair, the skill of the future!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@miss_raej @deadprogrammer bad parenting, this is why like they said in The Breakfast Club, parenting should require a license

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@realnzall read this VERY closely http://t.co/9D0fiENG8j

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@realnzall no. It makes code far more complex, and setup more complicated.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@iamunr it was a real post on http://t.co/xtRYvzppt2 yes

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jongalloway eeek!! Glad you are OK! Consider updating your internal anti-virus? ;)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jonathansampson and IE10 / Win7 which is a big target for us so it became MUSTFIX

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mattcutts hey CONGRATS. Nobody deserves a break more than the Hardest Working Man at Google.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@michaelpryor well obviously that's because YOU are NOT COMPLIANT

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life I think what they object to is that people were intentionally made to feel *bad*. Like the Facebook Prison Experiment.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Jasconius @nicksahler you numberists make me SICK

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ElissaBeth I learned a lot from writing that. A lot.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ElissaBeth it's almost like dating at work is kind of a bad idea ;) I am OK with the "disallowed within chain of command or same team" tho

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SaraJChipps I love Well Actually, because I think humor is the first step to catching and modifying these behaviors. Applies to most stuff

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tjw good idea I also reserved 💻😮 on Emojli

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@localheinz seems up to me?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ftrain Well, Actually the film you are thinking of is Idiocracy

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevinmontrose it is kind of like the "hey nice codez" problem

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deanputney I ain't never not checking out your pecks none of the time

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cmclymer @SuzieZUMO our children are more and harder work than any job I have ever had in my 44 years of life. It is not even close.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@amyhoy They work with no cell coverage tho! And no battery drain (if sidecar-ing it)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@amyhoy I always prefer to have a dedicated GPS unit in the car. They're cheap, too

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ZachWeiner or you played the game "Monopoly" sometime in the last 150 years

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley as rich people wankery go, it's quite defensible. Unlike 99.999% of the rest of rich people wankery.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley ... and stop thinking of it as rich people wankery

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@waxpancake @toddrundgren would be awesome if you could interview him about it and post an article

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@selenalarson @samusclone video game journalism: the worst kind.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nitashatiku also fun: eye for an eye game!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nicksahler people can be energizing, you should go

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@selenalarson it's the false equivalence to reading, writing, and math that raises my hackles. So deeply untrue. Fax machine repair!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@selenalarson @POPSUGARTech "it will become an essential skill, just like reading, writing, and math." siiigh no. http://t.co/QOJWQrtq78

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nicksahler I MUST KNOW TELL ME NOW

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jensechu a+++ would kidnap spirit again

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@libbybrittain the whole thread is actually pretty amazing, check it out http://t.co/8mcs3QgPyA

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@libbybrittain since we do @discourse I generally check out forums and discussion areas wherever I see them in my web travels

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@amyhoy anyways I will shut up now. Most startups are their own worst enemies, they will do perfectly fine at blowing up without our help

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@amyhoy there is a distinct theme though. It feels like a VC or startup wronged you in some way, and you have vowed lifelong revenge.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@amyhoy not the end of the word either way. Everyone has trigger topics, I guess.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@amyhoy what I like about you is that you don't take stuff personally. But on this topic, you really do, and that surprises me

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@amyhoy you seem to take the startup stuff kind of personally, which is unusual

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@amyhoy it really doesn't come up that often though, and I wouldn't say I am angry about it, nor does my Twitter feed

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@amyhoy I don't understand why you're so angry about this particular thing, and it comes up so often.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nutterguy too much Frankenstein. Metro apps need to run on Desktop when needed, seamlessly in a Window. That is coming.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers I like interesting experiments!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@haneycodes I really, really like @Uber -- much better experience in so many ways than Taxis.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@batterpunts chat and forums have a lot more DNA in common than I realized when I started with the @discourse project

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jwz everything about this is wrong, yet so right

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@waxpancake ask @r343l ; I have been predicting the implosion of Gittip for a while now. Volatile ingredients.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@waxpancake you didn't see that coming?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@zeelot3k @appoosa @discourse same reason we do it. On a 1000 reply topic, not all replies in browser dom

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@sarahjeong @nitashatiku @AdrianChen A little, yes, because it bothers me. But I can Let It Go. I've registered my complaint.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nitashatiku @AdrianChen tasteless, insensitive, etc. But if that's how you guys roll, so be it.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nitashatiku Natasha, how would you feel if Soylent was described as "vaginal secretions" instead of "semen" as @AdrianChen did?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nitashatiku @AdrianChen it's lame.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nitashatiku sign. "semen-esque". Really? Is that necessary?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wycats @mozilla @discourse to be fair, supporting commenting on articles isn't the primary focus of Discourse. It's a secondary one.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tfaz @marcoarment I dunno but you must go deeper to find out. Deeper still. Keep going.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tfaz I don't think so, unless the dip switches cover that.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ElCerritoPD this looks awesome
