@seesharp oh there are many better choices than Aeron now. Aeron is old n' busted. http://t.co/nKbyFECppC

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@_jayd3e why don't you run some tests with real users and find out?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@shribr there are already many, did you look at all before asking? http://t.co/M9stGDF3OS http://t.co/t3U7ZntXK3

@verdewek better taskman, boots faster, sleeps faster, uses less memory, better Explorer + file copy, excellent tablet / 10 foot mode

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@guattari2600 @chead can do all those things; saying "our tech community does not endorse getting wasted" is the most effective first step

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@guattari2600 @chead you can suggest doing a lot of things, but if people regularly get blackout drunk as a norm, there will be problems.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@guattari2600 @chead I think the culture of institutionalized drunkenness is unnecessary in a tech community, and the easiest fixable part

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Hungryghoast @guattari2600 @chead in the case where someone is reported as incoherent, blackout drunk I'd say major contributing factor yes

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@guattari2600 @chead if you encourage and institutionalize culture of drunkenness (eg. "drinkups!") you're going to have a lot more problems

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@guattari2600 @chead does this particular guy have a history of incidents? From the story he was blackout drunk, "incoherent"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@guattari2600 @chead of course, but without the "getting wasted is cool at tech conferences" part of Ruby culture, could have been avoided

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jedlewison @fmanjoo also built in flashlight app. It is better in so many small and large ways.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@fmanjoo unified search box in safari. Drag down to search (search is "at the top" like on the web). More coherent overall, not just skin.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nickscave I just got a lot more careful about remembering to leave it at home or in the car.. had at least 3 confiscated

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@evil_trout I would say the same thing about that Walking Dead game -- there is no game there, it is a movie where you click to advance

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@oddynz just go read my blog, etc

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@joshleitzel it's been at $96k for quite a while though.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@fmanjoo for which item, though? Gold iPhone 5s?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@migueldeicaza it is like having a dog, but so much more rewarding

@Tarendai only available to SE network users, not for businesses

@codinghorror
@thams #1 no bullshit "must install app" client nonsense. Works in the browser, everywhere.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wandsci oh yeah, it's great if the stork can deliver them just after their fourth birthday.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@migueldeicaza @samsaffron that's Chrome/Win's problem though. They need to fix it, have been nagging about this for over a year now

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@migueldeicaza ALWAYS WHORING THE MIDNIGHT COMMANDER, I am going to tell Peter Norton what you are doing right now

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nycplayer @steveklabnik the culture of getting drunk everywhere is lame and certainly to blame as much as anything.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@steveklabnik I think staying away from Ohio and body shots is a better idea

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@steveklabnik would you really want that discussion on HN anyway? It's basically "libertarian moderated" that is to say not at all

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevinmontrose AINT NO PARTY LIKE A DIFFERENTIAL CRYPTANALYSIS PARTY BECAUSE A .. actually, that would be hella boring

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mediajunkie @Greenspeak is still alive?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jzy @JasonPunyon this is good news, one less year of Punyon left

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@damienkatz you are scaring me a little here

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ABillionSuns @discourse @TheAVClub we love the AV Club, contact us at team@discourse.org if you'd like to discuss

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Hanzo55 is there some kind of midnight release of something?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@markeedington LIGHTSABERS

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@thefringeninja yes, lvlcap and friends are scarily good. Point a was a problem.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@orj they were not generic x86 boxes though. The parity is astonishing.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ShittingtonUK does anyone really think I created that?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

@ryantate @Avalanche1979 Discourse already supports rss, email and reply-by-email

@codinghorror
@bretmcmillan http://t.co/P96m8m4YfP works for us, no earlier version, and .25 does not work (latest)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@danbee to be fair, it is 850 lumen for only 1:15, 450 for 2:30, 170 for 7:45. I do have rechargeable 18650 batt tho http://t.co/7ySNmTqvmr

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson @ckowaliski if it is not fast enough for desktop, it is underpowered. Speed matters for a full non mobile os. Bay Trail minimum

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson if it's slow in desktop mode, it is just slow. Surface 1 was balls slow. Bay Trail is the minimum acceptable Win8 perf.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson "I don't believe Clover Trail was really usable in Windows 8's desktop mode (it was just too slow)" http://t.co/OaBRWaHxDG

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson like I said, I spend 99% of my time in a browser on websites and webapps. Hardly any apps installed on any device. Hassle.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson I pretty much just use the web browser on all 3. But yeah app selection is still bad on Metro.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson and by each one I mean, iPad 4, nexus 7, surface pro.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson I switch daily between all three. Literally, use each one every day. Part of @discourse testing. Do you?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson only good on the pro though. You need the speed.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson having used all three extensively, Win8 is easily the best for switching apps and tabs. Ie10 and 11 are rock solid for me.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson I find myself swiping down to switch tabs and swiping left to go back on iPad all the time

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson I use it on my surface pro every day. Swipe from sides is the shit on a tablet. On multimon desktop.. No

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@soviut oh you would be amazed at what comes out

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@konistehdev it's the same even with a $250 CPU, as long as it's Intel. AMD is really far behind, and the stuff in console is Atom-level

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@samBiotic right, where they will be CPU limited. The AMD Jaguar cores are like Intel Atoms -- even slower than what was shown.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@VarinPrime @samBiotic are you not looking at the BF4 graphs at all? Take another look. Look closely. Read. CPU matters, in that game.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@DrPizza @jongalloway I like it, but I agree it can be ambiguous at times in WP and Android. @NathanBowers

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@samBiotic even a cheaper i7 or i5 crushes the AMD CPUs though http://t.co/zL6VOIo9cW

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson see this is why Mantle is so important to reduce CPU overhead on console -- the AMD CPUs are just crap.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@chrickso I got the one from fenix store

Jeff Atwood

@ericnakagawa I don't know what you're talking about?tag=codihorr-20

@codinghorror
@ttutko halogen, bizarre, here's ~3600 in LED http://t.co/Ss72hNAvfl

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kwiens it has a flash mode, two flash modes actually. Perhaps you need 3500 lumens? http://t.co/Ss72hNAvfl

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tqbf @baconmeteor yes but important software *with source* will be assessed much faster, will it not? Windows XP exploits forever..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@baconmeteor but the inverse is much riskier; "When code is not audited by anyone, security will be a) compromised or b) broken"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ID_AA_Carmack here is ours, just put warm LEDs in it http://t.co/12dJs5k0my

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MLMcMillion gotta have something to store your kickstarter pledges in, right?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@el0j that is a given if you are requiring 4gb+

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@baconmeteor why do you hate breasts, and love cancer?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@baconmeteor oh that movie made my crap my friggin pants as a 13 year old. Could not un-see.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevinmontrose there's always the Rule 34 Carmen Sandiego search. That never ends.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@shirejedi that does seem logical doesn't it? :)

@AMDRadeon bah screw the rest of the world! What about pre-orders in the USA! YOUU ESS AYY! YOUU ESS AYY! YOU ESS AYYYY! YOOOO<passes out>

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Aissn memory speeds aren't really that relevant to perf because of L1, L2, L3 cache. Is an issue for GPUs which have GDDR5 already on PC

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jongalloway just a UK thing yes?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@pickoo you respond to everything you read, all day long? That's unusual.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@pickoo how much is your time worth before you are dead?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gcpascutto the topic covers this already in the first post

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@OffBeatMammal usually bigger screen equals bigger device and more room for battery.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Devindra sure eventually you reach ivy bridge, sandy bridge, haswell irrelevance. Mobile still 2x perf every release, it matters.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Devindra 640kb should be enough for anybody, right?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Diederik_za you can disable the quoting highlight support in your user prefs

@jrj is it ok to only be racist for adults?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bhilburn try reading wikipedia

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@brbdc almost literally everything about it is improved

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@dansinker would the *real* dan sinker say that sort of thing? I am not so sure.
