@deadprogrammer I think some things are indeed bad with no redeeming qualities, but point taken

@cdixon The ones with physical on/off switches for the mic are OK, if you actually turn them off when you're not using the voice functionality

I added a crazy usb-c triple monitor thing. It’s .. not bad! https://t.co/DNKfYlz7vh

@codinghorror
@textfiles you gotta ask for that second phone line

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jdecaron yes! a fake window would be better than a real window, since you could select the best perspective from all available cameras!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
these camera improvements are likely "peace dividends from the smartphone wars". Still love that phrase, and it's still true.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles I looked this up (first email mention of bitcoin) and I totally forgot there's a Stack Exchange site for bitcoin: https://t.co/s7kVqNaNqW

@cdixon they're both useful, particularly when the scores deviate a lot

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@chrismou I'll fit you in! But this will be the last one, I think

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
this is with 2FA enabled already (I have 2FA on all significant accounts), so Amazon *really* doesn't like it when you buy 10 digital copies off the same videogame?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
ahhh no good deed goes unpunished.. I'll send out the last 3 after 2 hours, sorry! https://t.co/FcSjChytFz

“One way to break this cycle is to help others voluntarily and charitably. Not only is serving others one of the most effective ways to raise one’s own happiness; maintaining the two opposing ideas that you are both a victim and a helper is very difficult.”

@gknauss I did the SAME THING at GSK. I had a super fancy gold leaf frame around it, too. Nobody asked me to take it down.

@Ajoy34 also I am pretty sure family sharing of AirTags is coming soon.. it kinda *has* to be

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@KristyT Hopefully electric, even more fun! 🔌

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
I looked at going to this, but you have to wear *formal attire*? I'm out

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@eviltrout @joffreyjaffeux that's what they said about z-order

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gfodor can you stop them from doing it? Can you stop *anyone* from doing it? And how do you verify the author is indeed the author? For example, on the darknet it's difficult to verify if the URLs you are visiting are even the correct ones..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gfodor it's identical. Two competing "star registries", one belongs to the author of the art, the other is Sotheby's. Or many, many more registries..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gfodor really? the artist, and not, say, sotheby's or some other well known auction house? I'm not sure that will play out.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gfodor @ID_AA_Carmack There are *effectively* an infinite number of stars (200 billion trillion), so I'm not sure I follow your logic here.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gfodor @ID_AA_Carmack we can create as many registries as we want.. which star registry is the "correct" one? 🤔

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lyndit @Ecospheres1 yes, there's a lot in the instructions about the right amount of indirect light https://t.co/4VwoYAMH2U

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ID_AA_Carmack I can't stop thinking of NFTs as the star naming market. The parallels are striking.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
TL;DR input light (just right) and the world survives https://t.co/4VwoYB4hUs https://t.co/FYHZfrY3aU

@dones725 @teexcakes_ COVID is much more deadly than the flu, though.. orders of magnitude more

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
this is why I am super excited about Google now building
and shipping their own SoCs, like they shoulda been 5 years ago.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@teexcakes_ yeah we get yearly flu shots for the last decade (since we had kids) so I don't really see a difference.. just bundle it with flu shot

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@TallBlondeGuy huh I didn't know that.. when did that happen?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@TallBlondeGuy and paying people (and forcing the default) is about the only way to get people to use it in the first place. 🙄

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
and related: you'd be surprised how difficult it is to write a great web crawler. It's a classic "this looks easy!" computer science problem. It is *NOT* easy.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
ask me how bad the Bing crawler was at Stack Overflow and Discourse. It was really, *profoundly* bad. Borderline incompetence bad.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@pborenstein people like letters! trust me on this

@voyageur_techno @DRO_oDR You can also get those clips which convert the ear loops to back-of-head

@martin3z_a Yeah no supply for years and years

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cdixon We regularly elect moderators on Stack Overflow. Why don’t other sites do this?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@donw I’m experimenting. It comes with both 1 washable (25 times) and 1 disposable filters included. Good to know it works with almost anything?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles And we all benefit!

@stevenb21 She’s right. I showed your pic to my wife and I asked her “is this guy ugly” and she said no. She has zero reason to lie.

@codinghorror
@benedictevans @timbray @pomeranian99 I guess I'd disagree that smartphones aren't gaming platforms. It's not their primary purpose, sure, but it's a prominent secondary one. Says here 50% of gaming revenue is on smartphone, generating 100 billion dollars: https://t.co/2R2zBtH5mO

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@benedictevans @timbray @pomeranian99 I think it's weird to single out PS5 here as the only number. To me "game consoles" is the installed base of every gaming platform: Switch, Xbox, Playstation, even gaming PCs. Smartphones are borderline, but you can't have Angry Birds without smartphones, can you?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@pomeranian99 @benedictevans strapping a smartphone to your face *sucks*. It's really terrible. We need to be able to project on to the eye, or into the mind.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@pomeranian99 @benedictevans I'd say it's the physics involved. Electric cars couldn't *really* happen before lithium ion batteries. Same reason VR is flopping, and will continue to.
