@lizardbill to be fair, they do make the best devices at the moment. Hardware is impeccable.

@Pinboard I think the wall was more popular (to his base) than COVID is to .. anyone?

@codinghorror
@Pinboard Didn't this flatten out in South Africa? https://t.co/TJRw0tBB3x

@skrug @lauraklein but but but but WHY wouldn't you have the same orientation for all three? WHYYYYY

@Pinboard are you kidding me? military spending bills are sacrosanct

@arjan_tijms this is terrible!!

@codinghorror
@DataKinds @voidmonk I hate, hate, hate the way they dedicate an entire key to lighting effects. It is their kryptonite. Otherwise they are good but it *really* sucks to be denied that one key.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cskilbeck @CodeKeyboard they do sell replacement CODE keycaps now if you need them! (WASD)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JuhoHame right, he kinda declared defeat :(

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@sklivvz @antoineaubry you are quite a specimen!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Xowap they also sell little add on usb wheels and keypads

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@evecitizen36339 ctrl+a is traditionally select all

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mdavidallen depends on the keyboard, etc

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Xowap It's usually a function key combo, eg fn+pgup is volume up, etc

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mdavidallen I don't think ESC changes much as you go down from 100%

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
The 100% voting result is surprising! y'all should try tenkeyless (80%) or lower..

@codinghorror
https://t.co/SJcbzj5zvR a brisk stroll through the cubicles of hell

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@phasmantistes yeah I am shocked how many people are in the 100% camp.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
also, shout out to the Qisan Magicforce, which really is a great deal and has *just* the right number of keys (ins, del, pgup, pgdn, arrows) for me. Love this one. https://t.co/Vc7UKPBGME

@codinghorror
@cmwhite92 @sestocker I'm definitely a huge fan of full EV! But hybrids are a pretty big win also https://t.co/BiOKNagf49

@codinghorror
@bbulkow add a battery to that one and you'd do much, much better

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bertlamb yeah. Honda dropped the ball real hard, they have something planned on the minivan side for 2024..

"We still have our 2004 Sienna LE (296K miles and going strong) and it gets 20 MPG year in and year out.
The 2021 Sienna LE is averaging 37 MPG." -- from the sienna forums

@codinghorror
@jhripley @textfiles the party line is, it does, and that certainly benefits us at Discourse -- the whole idea is to have a million vibrant independent communities, not one giant hairy facebook meatball that consumes the entirety of the earth

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@susanthesquark Our @betsyphd sets up family photos every year and they are a delight. But she puts in the work to make it happen and it's such a treasure over the years, a roadmap of where we were that will last for decades.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JoannaStern @FallonTonight @jimmyfallon wow congrats!! You do great work, fantastic to see it on display for the world.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles I am ambivalent about web3. I believe in decentralization but I also believe people have no idea how hard decentralization is in practice.

@patrickc @arcinstitute amazing, this is why I'm a card-carrying fan of Stripe. 🙌

@mathowie @johnpoulos Yeah $300 that's cute, try ~$1000 for the real major kits!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mathowie Have you seen https://t.co/jR7xFN7pyP ? I recommend it. LEGO is covered in specifically this way, as a meditative thing to do to recover from periods of intense activity

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JonNiola @migueldeicaza yes it's something I discuss with @samsaffron and @eviltrout regularly.. it's part of our release checklist actually

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles I thought you had a burn book with a hand embroidered bedazzled cover

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@thinkontheclock remember the original mac didn't have arrow keys. Intentionally.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@migueldeicaza take it as a challenge! That's the general idea

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer @Pinboard more of a vibe, really

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles what would you estimate your accuracy rate is in calling doomed? like what percent hit rate have you had, historically?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@danluu we don't do interviews at all, we only do (paid) audition projects once we've gotten past the basics

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kddlb this event predates their purchase by Facebook tho as I recall

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tubbo yeah all kudos to @benpopper and others who came up with that.. the legacy of @balpha and the epic April Fools

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Maddy_Onyehara I appreciate that! Email me (my email is on my about page) and I'd be happy to mail you some stickers!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Maddy_Onyehara I need to get back on that horse! Thanks for the reminder

@vanessafox @lilyraynyc @jengolbeck Were you on a shared IP address when someone searched for something related to the band? That's usually the case https://t.co/GONJGLy2zZ

@codinghorror
@mylonov They did review ones with lidar, read a bit more closely!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard You should blog this

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@broderick I also wear my t-shirts with the folds still in them, like an animal

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@maijasauna that, they actually solved! You have to get the fancier models but they avoid poo now reliably per Wirecutter tests

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tensor_bodega haha this guy on youtube loves that series https://t.co/5kNAb0IIXp

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@susanthesquark 🤣 I remember our son Henry had pants with some kind of saying on the back which coincided with his brief but intense *extreme crawling speed* phase. Whooo

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard but how do we reconcile that with the dozens of republican reps who tweeted about how great the infrastructure bill is going to be for their district... after voting against it?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard well, they already did the strategic gas reserve thing, so it's not like they haven't addressed it. Would things be better under Trump? I mean, that's a categorical hell to the naw

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jbkazoo per the video it sounds like it was a rare Europe-only console release?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@geerlingguy yes that part is nice and does work well!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
So yeah, self-driving cars are *just around the corner*, folks!

"iRobot CEO Colin Angle even told us that as late as mid-2020, the bump-and-run Roomba 600 series models were still more likely to successfully complete an entire cleaning session than any of the pricier Roomba models, with supposedly superior mapping systems"

@mathowie Democrats need to internalize the tribalism of Republicans, and always vote as a block, *no matter what*. Otherwise it's non-stop losses from this point on.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mathowie I don't find this kind of catastrophism "it's all or nothing" logic to be useful

@Jacob__Siegel @edgarageous @TychoTithonus @decarboxy @Pinboard from the user's perspective, this is an odd question. Can I unlock the app / phone with my face, or not? I don't know that many people want to use their face to "unlock" a long string of numbers and characters..
