@clipperhouse that just reverts to that particular changeset -- I need the whole folder at a point in time

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@LexMitchell that's a nice presentation, thanks for the link

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers that request had a lot of downvotes, it was controversial. I don't agree with it, either.

@Gryzor stack exchange 1.0 site see http://blog.stackoverflow.com/2010/04/changes-to-stack-exchange/

@jzy this is why you get the flu shot. NOT optional with children.

@timbray actually all webkit based browsers have this incredibly irritating selection issue, per the video. Safari = webkit.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@orj sorry about that the NYC team tells me it is fixed now.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@shachart good idea, I'll add that

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@shachart see the words "You may retry your request or if this turns into an extended outage" on the page? clicken the link!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers the Stack Overflow community is EXTREMELY harsh on questions that they perceive to be virus/evil stuff. Love is powerful.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers superuser is about celebration of hardware and power users, not destruction. Like "how do I create a virus" on Stack Overflow

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jamesproud it says "Q&A", not forum or discussion.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@pixelheresy Are you looking at my desktop?! OMG H4X!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers I'm just saying, it's not like they were singling out Real Steve Jobs or anything

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers @daringfireball that's just the generic "this has been double-shortened" page, though.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ftrain there are no stupid things, just stupid people

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers @kevindente well, "everyone" has herpes simplex, too, but I'm not interested in sharing that either

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers @timbray what? I have to rip everything in Handbrake to get it on any iOS device

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@trampstr submit an edit to that question. even anon users can. http://goo.gl/XqvsD

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@huthaifa search http://meta.stackoverflow.com first please ... there are very few ideas I have not heard already :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente @NathanBowers actually I favor 16gb / 32 gb USB sticks with a bunch of mp3s on them. plug it in, leave it in.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nromyn actually terrestrial HD radio is quite good http://goo.gl/1OfYN

@deadprogrammer look what just happened! http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/7080/exercise-and-fitness

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers @kevindente ironic that the startup about money sold out for.. money.. eh? eh? Ok, never mind.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ai as I recall, it was "I'm a little teapot, short and stout.."

@alanstevens @SweetSirena it's true I tell you! ace bandages and slop = Ethiopian dining!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@osdezwart we add the most important tags from the question to the title. I don't like that tag though so I'm removing it.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@osdezwart can you elaborate?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@adampash well, keep in mind http://superuser.com/questions/195406/dd-wrt-router-firmware-qos-troubleshooting or try OpenWRT too

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@andrewpthorp awesome! If you're getting good results, pay it forward so we can all learn together.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MotoWilliams @kevindente the new financing is awesome though. 0% or 0.9% for SIX YEARS (!)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@migueldeicaza I DONT EVEN KNOW WHO YOU ARE ANY MORE

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@adampash I was, but QoS is *so* broken on DD-WRT, even with fixes. I tried OpenWRT and switched to the Asus RT-N16 for TomatoUSB

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jzy read up on Mr. Norton http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Norton

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@vervestudiosco well, there is a fix, but it's basically us inserting zero-width joiners every so often. We can do that now; expect it soon

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@vervestudiosco not fixable in variable width areas. Sorry.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@farinjini have you looked at stackprinter on http://stackapps.com ?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@secretGeek git cannot be hgignored.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ghewgill holy cow, that's a major quake. glad you're ok!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@clipperhouse @kylembrandt @GABeech eek, the use of consumer MLC SSDs there gives me the willies. Jarrod's drive just failed, etc.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life yes you should

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers @jzy with kids the flu shot is *mandatory*

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@systemsoverload we've always liked the idea of a badge for that, but world timezones make it hugely problematic (and we use UTC..)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jarrod_dixon eat some for me!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@pkamb think of it as a toddler proof barrier

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@orangy I am very interested in that if you can post a function as reply!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kylembrandt definitely seems like a pattern across two different server vendors..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@weinzierl @jzy well, we already support Facebook for login, and have for about 6 months.. Twitter needs OAuth 2.0 before we can do them

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@MarioBonales those two are release candidate level.. FF4 has yet to produce a release candidate AFAIK?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers story of my life

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@solevangelist still haven't heard from him once since then!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@drylight it's like an iPad, but I can type on it, it runs any software I want... and it's hundreds of dollars cheaper.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@anildash having a child is a bit like introducing Sam Kinison into your family. http://goo.gl/s39VU

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@dnnydnl I agree, I was most impressed with the pricing when iPad launched. They did a fantastic job there.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@noctrine enjoy! and thank you!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Borror0 that guy's eyebrows are insane

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@rlarno @shanselman not all of them would fit, but some would; see http://programmers.stackexchange.com/faq for specifics

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@arrocharGeek you really need to read some of the history. Yeah, gov't is sometimes evil, but corporations are ALWAYS evil.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@drylight you can say thanks, or you could be awesome instead

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@waxpancake yes, also makers of Sex Panther cologne and Brawndo http://omniconsumerproductscorporation.com/

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@juanformoso fortunate for us, then, eh? WINK WINK NUDGE NUDGE!!

@ErinBird Markdown Babelmark is one of my favorites http://babelmark.bobtfish.net/

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@dougrathbone sandforce sf-1500 as it is the most enterprisey-ish of the consumer chipsets

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@pablogl http://superuser.com is that

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@rmaalmeida sounds like a tale for http://electronics.stackexchange.com/ !

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@migueldeicaza you have to email Steve Jobs and .00001% of the time he will randomly respond. That's the rule.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life how is this different than Facebook requiring all Facebook games to use Facebook Credits as currency?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jwcarroll if you think this is a fake problem I strongly recommend you crack open a history book, or at least read http://goo.gl/zP99z

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@timoreilly @markoff @jseelybrown we know a little about Q&A; the most human thing of all is to answer a question with another question

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@6T9 fantastic! Be sure to check out http://stackexchange.com/sites , I like to think they are of similarly high quality!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@alandjackson { head asplode }

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@fhd there are a bunch at http://stackapps.com

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@flyosity yeah I was all excited and then I was like :( kind of a super-fail on their part, to promote it so heavily and not test

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@flyosity except ... the IE6 and IE7 files are totally busted in Win7 x64. See comments on that post.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@portman_wills @shanselman pretty much just get a triple channel compatible machine, beyond that, it's all good http://goo.gl/zVCbt

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@greatcoder where did you hear about convore? I haven't heard about that, and it doesn't look like Q&A but chat

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers how is that bad? The edit queue gets peer reviewed really rapidly on all sites.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers fyi you don't need rep to edit any more, you should see an edit link on any post > 12 hours old even as anon

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Jason @mattcutts funny how "optimizing for quality" is such a reliable business model, isn't it? Suggestion: next time start with that.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jfoulkes that is correct though we encourage people to improve multiple things with an edit

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mattcutts you also put the fear of god(gle) into @jason who quite suddenly got the "gee, let's create quality content" religion

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@superwuster loving your book, sir: http://twitter.com/#!/codinghorror/status/35948188326170625

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente here's your search tag request thing http://goo.gl/2U6Eq

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@delfuego does that work in offline (no 3G no wifi?) mode?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gthb @secretgeek it's almost as bad as watching someone program in PHP!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SteveAGRC too noisy, and the button you want is visible, it has "faq" printed on it :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SteveAGRC see the /faq, you need 50 rep to comment on posts you don't own or that aren't answers to your question

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@steipete correct, less hammering to pixel grid, but for reasons of hardware acceleration primarily as I understand it
