@timbray it's easy if you use the Surface Pro.

@baconmeteor you need better hobbies, man

@codinghorror
@factormystic it hasn't evolved much in ui, true, but the WebKit underneath is solid

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bump this is not oneboxing, this is wholesale display of cached web pages

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ftrain ok so business as usual then, good to know, I guess

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bojanrajkovic @migueldeicaza no, $300 will easily get you blu ray level hd res, without even breaking a sweat

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bojanrajkovic @migueldeicaza meh, increasing resolution to crazy level does not increase quality of pixels, just how many there are.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NicheDiver @hnshah Tarah Dactyl made me lol, but there is only so much BuzzFeed I can take

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@migueldeicaza yes as long as you have the latest amd or nvidia $300+ video card, they do look great

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@waxpancake any concept of backlash on that was so ridiculous I didn't even bother reading it.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@snipeyhead @kworthington I am not clever enough to coin #compooting, kudos

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@geospacedman @lizardbill note our definition of unanswered is pretty strict, a q with a can still be unanswered

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@danhulton hunt the wumpus for ti 99/4a

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Ark_kun on @discourse you just click to expand replies if you don't want to wait while scrolling down

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@angrynoah there are so many ways to get reading and writing wrong in threaded. Flat wins because it is simpler, but can be hybridized a bit

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@PrintsCharming @thompson_caleb this is how shack news and tech report do it, sort of, but then most replies are collapsed by default

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@angrynoah no, threading is the opposite of that, it optimizes for convenience of writers at the cost of making readers work, 100x over

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@angrynoah not so, particularly if people quote for context. See how @discourse does it.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MikeTaylor @HackerNews that would help yes. They should also cap reply depth default viz at say 2

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@angrynoah if giant discussion, tough in all worlds. But flat optimizes for the critical act, reading: naturally scroll down w/gravity. RIF!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@thompson_caleb it's a good start but still leads to pile on replies to first posts, which get primo real estate

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@pewpewarrows way more opportunity for user error in read and write with threading, but neither is perfect

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@angrynoah then you are suppressing all children and heavily incentivizing creating new top level threads that will be visible by default

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@angrynoah oh yeah the "force everyone to click or interact all the time" model. Not a fan.

@codinghorror
@fmanjoo categorization is all bs at some level. Animal, vegetable, or mineral? http://t.co/UmjdpLrsbM

@codinghorror
@dbanksDesign I do not but email me! My email is on the "about me" link on my blog

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life need gmail,app so bad it hurts

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@BenedictEvans clearly they are holding it wrong.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@estraph there is if you reload a lot

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@baconmeteor not with a pdf he didn't

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon invalid without Cool Rancher @jarrod_dixon

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ftrain we can't afford to teach our children humility. Inflation puts it out of our price range.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jonskeet @chrismlacy ok good! My faith in all things Skeet had been shaken to its very foundations!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cdixon definitely the future then. 200 years in the past, anywhere in the world, would statistically be quite bad.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jonskeet eek you are not using 2 factor auth already?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@damienkatz there were only one set of footprints because you were carrying me

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tushar_saxena yes of course! Only counter argument is angry / abusive parents or extreme poverty.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JasonPunyon well that is mostly because we don't have at stackoverflow. Ask @michaelpryor why not :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@BrentO oh yeah? Well I SELECT * FROM YOURMOM and it caused my query buffer to overflowe

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@BrentO my question was about Twitter, therefore I asked it on Twitter

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kamens @jarrod_dixon teachers not listening to feedback from students is not a "bug" that can be fixed

@codinghorror
@baconmeteor Sylvester Stallone would be so proud

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life works for me! I remember (barely) seeing the late 80s remake and even at the time it was meh

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@maxbadrak naw we just pay @supermathie in poutine flavored soda and Flooz, man

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@maxbadrak well yeah if you win the lottery the rules are different.. Unlimited (but expensive) scaling is a benefit

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ddt @timoreilly and if you want the definition of cloning, google Zynga and Tiny Towers. Was this that? Not even close.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ddt @timoreilly this claim has no merit.. Like saying Call of Duty was a clone of Battlefield. Same genre, yes..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Supermathie shall we Hulk out now or later?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@splattne illusion, identical. Lady Jeff is a big baby..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ttobin @angrynoah we are all on Ivy Bridge Xeons already.. and you can get 6 or 8 core. This is hardly fancy hardware.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kjstone00 no wayyy we spent more than $20k, probably significantly less

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jzy @SuperDalgas I am offended that you even had to ask this

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jamespmclachlan SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@RyanCochran I see it there under How Can I Contact You? Heading. Tested in IE10 and chrome

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jongallant @jongalloway ok, if you are only five inches tall, maybe you should be replaced. You can only do teeny tiny amounts of work.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jongalloway @jongallant if you can be replaced in 5 minutes at work, you should quit!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@juokaz view source on http://t.co/4bzJUogkxV -- that's what it was about!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@davidfrahm no, I headed to the airport. We can sext each other though!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@penartur sorry I am not at SE any more, no visibility into that process!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@olysebaba noooooo I don't know that one!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@vinzBad @GreenheartGames ok good @neill will look at this more closely tomorrow. Sorry for the difficulty.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@vinzBad @GreenheartGames may be a forum config issue after all: http://t.co/YrqaCNyaE7 We may need admin on your forum to check settings..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson just got mine about an hour ago WOOOoooOO

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@vinzBad @GreenheartGames it might be a spurious error, since you don't need a password with those login types. Can you proceed?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@syntheticbrain well the babies, yeah, spare the babies but those Winnebagos had it coming, man

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@vinzBad @GreenheartGames I *think* that's a config error with the forum and Google logins. Let me check.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@craighooghiem and that's the difference.. these guys are so clearly building out of love for the genre not to screw anyone.. unlike Zynga!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jongalloway did this same guy do the genius stock photography music video parody? That was awesome.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@craighooghiem yeah if you want clear example of evil just look at what Zynga did. Cloning!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@craighooghiem yes, and every FPS ever "ripped off" Doom.. Call of Duty "ripped off" Battlefield..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@RyanCochran scroll down! Look for the @ sign :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@redhotvengeance ask @PatrickKlug to write a blog entry, would be a fun read, though he is kinda swamped ATM

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@RyanCochran Did you try the about me link in the left hand column of my blog?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jzy I'm at the Pizza Hut.. I'm at the Taco Bell.. I'm at the com-bination pizzahutandtacobell

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@shanecelis you are totally turning me on right now

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@harryandrews are you psyched about wrecking? :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley I am wearing mine RIGHT NOW

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@RockBandAide still holding out for Muse

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles you and @ftrain! nice

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@fmanjoo this is your stock in trade! blogs + editorials are perfectly OK for opinion honeypots. Stack Exchange not so much.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@fmanjoo put it on SLATE mannnn

@fmanjoo I always thought he was talking about really large big rigs when he said "truck", or delivery trucks..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@JZig I wonder if the honor system is a bust?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@captain_fwiffo that is what I figured, seemed odd they cut it out after hyping honor so much

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jzy @kevinmontrose buy that man a yacht he is clearly going places
