@kahlillechelt awesome, check out http://t.co/ofKszxt -- I like to think they are all of similarly high quality :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@CesareMontresor I did not. Well, this pair is free.. I guess I will just never wash them.. :p

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tatehansen 8gb dimms are "if you have to ask how much it costs, you can't afford it" territory..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@demisbellot I don't even know what CQRS means. Seriously.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jongalloway just say "js" then

@codinghorror
@gknauss at age 40+, my wife and I were dumbfounded to discover that we are only now buying non-particle-board furniture. I blame IKEA.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@sarangbk also I am not afraid to dremel some crap to get it to work. Just FYI.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@sarangbk ah, well -- order is placed! reviews did not mention this issue, they said the mounting was easy which was a factor for me

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ghewgill that's correct; they are ops

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@edbott probably works on Mango. Wp7 default browser is an IE7.5 atrocity..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jarrod_dixon WARRIORS.. COME OUT TO PLAYYAYYYYY!!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jimworm that's EXACTLY what I'm worried about.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@johndauphine follow the Q back (it's the first chat message in the room) and there should be a link in the comments.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jredville they always are, at the thresholds we set. At the very least they are "nobody's gonna read 10 back and forth responses"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@spolsky the best new user registration is none at all :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottstevenson all true, but the two have a disturbing tendency to get out of sync, and that is killer

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers meh, except facebook has the "why won't you be my FRIEND?" problem. Both systems are junk, IMO.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers there's something deeply wrong with the idea that you can share to radically different audiences on the same website. IMHO.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers huge Don't Make Me Think violation. So it's not the circles, it's the side-effects of having Clark Kent and Superman

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers I haven't tried it yet, but "friends" and "family" default circles (plus maybe "work") *seems* simple enough?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@iknowfoobar I see only one tweet :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ethicalsean I better GET TO WORK THEN

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@HardikVP I deleted the previous tweet, error in my maths

Jeff Atwood

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jongalloway good to know one can have 3 kids and eventually have time for an extravagance like that.. @rockhardawesome keeps us megabusy

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mabster @kevindente how many of those are from 2010 or newer? Slavery used to be legal once, too...

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente a) you'd have to WORK FOR GOOGLE to answer it, so it is effectively unanswerable b) this is nobody's ACTUAL PROBLEM

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente how in the world was that a "practical, answerable question based on actual problems that you face"?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente it's very clearly outlined here. http://t.co/S3XpTla

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente it should have just been closed as off-topic, but fundamentally, the question sucked, so I don't really care.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente that seems like exactly the kind of speculative, insider wankery question that would do well on Quora.. go for it

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente that question a) sucks and b) isn't on-topic anywhere. I'm burning all those with the fire of a thousand suns.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SingleFounder fantastic! We like to think the rest of the network at http://t.co/ofKszxt is of similar quality :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@fody @kevindente still no idea WTF you guys are talking about. Links or GTFO.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MikePerry voted down to -20 and below many times.. http://t.co/oE3UyHa (that's just one of several negatively voted dupes)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente what are you referring to? URL? We close and move stuff all the time.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente just because a question pops into someone's head doesn't mean it's worthwhile.. http://t.co/OzZG2B1

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@aehiilrs hey, thanks! we talked about it a little bit here: http://t.co/Ij2yZwj

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MikePerry sometimes we allow one question of that form, but it has to be capped otherwise it will grow without bound.. every answer valid

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@rory_blyth I added some awesome to blog entry with "start your engines" link. You're the Houston to my Warwick, Blyth. http://t.co/WYqSkRb

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MikePerry see http://t.co/cQeFKCb specifically "avoid easy questions"; also infinite list of X problem..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MikePerry it's the "infinite list of X" problem. Grows without bound, because every possible answer is "correct".

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@codepo8 omg that would be so nice. Will never happen of course, because the music industry is batshit insane.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Rocksmithgame nope but would love to! Happy to blog about it.. http://t.co/dcup7ky

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Made2Mentor @BrentO shopping questions aren't on topic, sorry about that -- haven't been for a while -- http://t.co/BIj63zF

@codinghorror
@kevinmontrose I approve of these vacation activities

@mrdenny is it this? http://t.co/PkTh8vy

@EduardoMolteni APOLOGY NOT ACCEPTED, PISTOLS AT DAWN

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@EduardoMolteni awesome hashtag

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lloeki fwiw Chrome did quite well on the P4 2.0 Ghz for this user

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@AMgdy yes, you can test it yourself here http://t.co/sbttu3X

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@raistdejesus there are many at http://t.co/Nr3TYNt already

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@fekberg I assumed it was the northwood http://t.co/CQGviN7

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bryanl this is also why I don't regularly look up information on dating supermodels.

Jeff Atwood

@codinghorror
@rothgar gas powered grill, or go home! :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ircri I already forwarded your email to the appropriate people, it takes more than a few seconds for us to follow up

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jongalloway I wouldn't buy a tablet for another 12 months; category is moving too fast. Netbooks (or ultra-portables) better choice for now

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@pickoo not really, since email is the skeleton key for all your online accounts, your domain names, everything.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ivoflipse5 oops, bad CSS -- try now :(

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@secretGeek you weren't exactly dressed for church, though, were you? Yeah. Slut.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MemeDeveloper give it 8 hours -- we have a lot of TRUE noobs (you are not) that post "answers" incorrectly.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@haacked The Final Solution: redefine the nature of "work".

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@haacked how about "I just want to kick the other guy's ass!"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mrozekma also, that had legitimately come up before, and the answer was basically the same: http://t.co/lf0zFfN

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mrozekma the most relevant tag in the title was definitely needed; efreedom was kicking our asses to Sunday with that trick.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers @jongalloway and by future I mean the past.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers @jongalloway yeah, but you know what is a TOTALLY UNIQUE design look? Tons of icons on a background. It's the FUTURE.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ohlol (only has to be done once, etc)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ohlol We don't share accounts, the reputation systems are completely independent. Just click "log in" on each site you wish to use.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ohlol ? we don't ask for the password; GMail or Facebook might, but you are on their site, not ours. Look at browser address bar.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jbdavid no idea what that is about BURN IT WITH FIRE

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@secretGeek http://t.co/FXHXcSK p.s. you suck

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@waxpancake easy difficulty? way to coddle a boy! :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers you haven't seen season 1 and season 2 already? You're fired. Go do it IMMEDIATELY.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jeanalawrence actually other way around; if there are security holes, the longer you wait, the more you are vulnerable.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MikePerry I say give it a shot, your partial answer can be edited, as can the question. Good answers often prod people to edit.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MikePerry sure, it's a judgment call. But you see why we focus to answers for new users; that's the primary output of a Q&A system.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MikePerry and if your speculative answer is helpful, it'll get upvoted, and that leads to 50 rep, which leads to comments :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MikePerry you can speculatively answer, with caveats -- this is allowed, as long as you feel the answer would be of value

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MikePerry the faq is the same on all sites

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MikePerry you can post a comment to your own question (+ its answers) or answer, with 1 rep. elsewhere 50 rep http://t.co/XN9DJ8J

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers "sea of icons on a background" is a failure in any context on any device. Windows 3.1 calling!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers @carnage4life not so
much unfair as, just takes time for competition to get to similar version 3.5 of giant iPhone
much unfair as, just takes time for competition to get to similar version 3.5 of giant iPhone

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life no question that execution is important, but iPad is also very much a giant iPhone 3.5. It worked because iPhone was great.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@edbott can I pay more for extra drm?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life not quite; iPad was basically "giant iPhone v3.5" whereas most of the competition is starting from scratch or very nearly so

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@marcgravell "fastplay" == torrent

Jeff Atwood

@christiancmann definitely at least 4 hours, maybe a bit more.
