@ftrain apparently it makes me wonder what those dude's mothers look like.

@codinghorror
@Supermathie may I suggest generic Ambien. Also self control.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@daubman yeah NS is kind of not so good. Labyrinth,stands the test of time though.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@OmarShahine it is so thoroughly Windows at every level. The parallels are disturbing.

@codinghorror
@tobykier I did not even like Wall-E

@codinghorror
@paulapostolos it is high on the list

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@_sjs it is horrid now. iPad went from being one of my fave browsing platforms to one I dread

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@_sjs lol have done that too. Next up, optimizing high memory!

@TheEvanCarroll I demand a recount based on percentage of overall votes and posts

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@matiasblog thanks for the generous offer! I would not have time to write about it though.

@jzy don't tell @jarrod_dixon he will eat it

@codinghorror
@cambridgemike is it even a website? totally different approach

@bijan I don't think it's the friend-forwarding (that is kinda like.. work?) but if you make it fun like "ooh, I bet I/he know/s that.."

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bijan I can see if it is presented like a game. The "what is this thing?" image posts on Twitter are surprisingly interesting.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bijan but how would one get the necessary giant following on Jelly if one does not already have one *somewhere*? Chicken, egg..?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bijan why not just ask on Twitter? I don't "get" Jelly, other than the visual "what is this thing?" puzzle aspect which can be fun

@textfiles I'd like to invite you to several discussions about motorcycle and bicycle helmets. Bring your vomit bucket.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon @dhh you guys feel free to use that delete key on the characters starting with "at symbol", "c", "o", d"..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@shog9 @lizardbill those should be instantly flagged and deleted

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@dhh @patientdoctor I am not part of day to day ops at SE any more. Let's ask @JasonPunyon ! http://t.co/oumRDzkt7m

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ftrain and I got all excited at the prospect of slutty witches too

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@garychou have children and you learn this by like day three

@NathanBowers well, actually, it's baling wire http://t.co/PhrstfHScY

@codinghorror
@tedder42 haven't reached 1.0 yet, per the post.. :P

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@rossrubin this is why mobile is winning

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@s_m_i you're probably right, will change

Jeff Atwood

@codinghorror
@_tomash they aren't so bad.. http://t.co/2pvXtRxadO and so forth are much more dangerous

@Beschizza this is a test isn't it

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon yeah I didn't see the removal of the keyboard coming. But I love touchscreens.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@shribr you are right, nobody has ever succeeded in getting a question answered on Stack Overflow, it is clearly impossible

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@samsaffron @robconery because not-new users have gotten an earful on GMO already on BBS. It is not exactly a new original controversy.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@samsaffron @robconery Sam, try reading the 15 other BBS topics on GMO. I dare you. Hell I triple dog dare you. You will pray for limits.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@circlejtp @robconery good idea. Blog the research and links and data, edit last post to include a link to your blog. Will reach more folks.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@robconery there are lots of people who are VERY passionate about GMO. Like.. very very. Read the other BBS topics, exit sandbox, post more.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@robconery and, amazingly, visiting other topics and reading them tends to move one out of the new user sandbox

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@robconery the GMO topics rarely end well. If you are curious, search for the others. I thought you made your point clear in 3 replies, tho.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@robconery wait, Rob Conery has complaints about something? Say it ain't so! :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@waxpancake what is this Patreon magickry? Like Kickstarter but per-generated-content action?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@albedoa as in dudes pick female avatars to psyche people out, or..?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@timbray I guess TV is arguably the largest general "tech" purchase in a household, and smartphones occupy computers now

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ftrain you just liked that one because it had the actual words F train in it. That writing was every bit as indulgent as "glass" itself.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ftrain speaking of left out, how about applying that to maybe half the words in that article next time. My god.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley I mean they could use iTunes, that'd be ok lol I can't even type this

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley when your choices are Silverlight and Flash, you are in a world of Full Metal Jacketesque shit

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley what do they use? Flash? Not too many viable choices for DRMed up video delivery

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley DRM And Shit(tm)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@frazelledazzell investment opportunity! I wish we could make more. Switch supply limitations.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@frazelledazzell link does not resolve?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@donpark The process of snapping is incredible OCD fun. Lego manuals are superb as well. Try it.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@paulcbetts @wilshipley well obviously all the cool people use vim

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cdixon The Stanford Bitcoin Experiment! Like the prison one but more.. bits.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley that is ice cold man, ice cold

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mathowie even as a kid, I was like "that's bs". I used erasers and rubbing alcohol

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@estory1 @distantcam I never said they did, just that the statistics bear out men are more *generally* more aggressive, substantially so.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@spongefile @PearlChen and talking about it can be creepy. Again I am sorry. But it's kind of a prison sometimes, feels hard-wired.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wandsci point of book seems to be, gender diffs can be overcome. Do not disagree. But see my later tweets; mine has taken 43 years so far.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@PearlChen I know, we don't usually talk about it. I am sorry. But that is how it is inside our stupid annoying heads. I want out too.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@aniruddh26 yes but now you have another very very similar problem :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bearflash @SpaceCatPics this.. sounds unwise

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@distantcam keep reading. Aggression constantly higher in all male *mammals* with one exception.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@daedtech @distantcam @haacked my gut feeling is competitiveness is in the ballpark, at least. It is the aggression that I worry about.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@distantcam go read the data. Guess who commits 90% of the murders in the USA? Hint: not women.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wandsci from each other? Of course. There is normal statistical variance, you can find break-all-the-shit girls and blissed out zen boys.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wandsci the hormone studies are IMO conclusive. Plus, I just look at the babies we had. Such profound differences and noticeable so early.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Supermathie we were dumbfounded by the attention span both lady babies had very early on. Henry at same age had a tiny fraction of that.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@haacked interesting link, but comfirms outside of domestic disputes, dudes crazily more aggressive. 90% of murders committed by men.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@haacked our preschool and all the playgrounds I see do, however..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Beschizza we had it explained to us by a Yahoo insider as a de-facto safe chat room for teenage girls. Makes sense and source would know.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@haacked there is normal statistical variance of course.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@IrisClasson hard to snap your fingers and undo millions of years of brain programming.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@davidcrespo Also lots of studies of sex differences in babies. Consistent across cultures.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@PeterBorah do more research. Lots of studies with babies. Big sex differences, consistent across cultures.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@davidcrespo It manifests so early

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@IrisClasson there is some statistical variance, of course. There are calm dudes and break-all-the-shit ladies. But it is uncommon.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@waxpancake @meyerweb Among the worst things a parent can imagine. I hope everything goes well for your daughter.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@BillB pff just slap a MAYDAY live help button on there, and you will be hailed as Segway level revolutionary

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@onaclov2000 oh yes it gets exponentially more fun as you go. First year is IMO terrible. But all upside from there.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley so the marriage between the billionaire and the twenty something actress did not last? WHY OH GODDDD WHYYY

@BillB everybody gets one do-over in my book. After that, we can freely begin the judging.
