@hempels yes, when it comes to web, Apple is hopelessly incompetent. iDevices, great, MobileMe.. uhh..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente yeah that's a "dumb user" protection -- we redirect you to a /questions/tagged -- it's no longer a search

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente well, it's possible some crazy advanced search might cause issues with this, though it's generally a "dump string to html"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente [status-norepro]

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kev_nz most use Google to search us (it's built in) and are happy with the results..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nbarnwell really? if you're a skiier, you accidentally ask questions on the snowboarding site? That happens? I don't think so. :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente ah, so the usual "kevin dente angst" we see in your twitter stream, then? :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@delegatevoid er, ui.se is for "user interface researchers and experts" -- is that you? Pretty clear.. http://ui.stackexchange.com/faq

@helloandre should be fixed now, error in MathJax not us..

@codinghorror
@orj should be fixed now, error in MathJax not us..

@jfbastien should be fixed now, error in MathJax not us..

@codinghorror
@kevindente works well for me, but takes skill to use. Can you give me exactly what you're looking for and I'll show you?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@migueldeicaza congrats, smile is the first major human milestone!!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@famutime yes, but that is rage quitting WITH STYLE. http://www.aurichlawson.com/ars/misc/exiting-aircraft.jpg

@codinghorror
@jeffreybarke may I suggest for your additional viewing pleasure the Mr Bean movies?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jeffreybarke his complete lack of talent and acting ability?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@boristerzic excellent, thanks! We just added OAuth 2.0 support for Facebook as well

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers it's no Iron Giant. That's all I'm saying. Not even a little as good.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers I really kinda hated Wall-E, it just didn't work for me .. at all. Toy Story 3 and Up were great though.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente that's like saying "oh, you only need to get punched in the balls a few times per month."

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@migueldeicaza I see this is a matter you have some .. opinions .. on :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@anildash BASS! how low can you go?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kch we're doing per site before that, decathlon, triathlon, pentathlon. Use "stats" tab on tag page otherwise.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers it's just @kevindente 's style.. a bit.. uh.. noisy, shall we say

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jarrod_dixon ... UNTIL I CRUSH THEM UNDER MY BOOTHEEL!!!

@codinghorror
@loicwolff we have an hour long call in 15 minutes, but can you meet us on a http://chat.meta.stackoverflow.com room l8r to figure this out?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tooshel oh, c'mon, there's *always* someone more retarded than you that could use some guidance. I mean that in a nice way!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@_swanson you're welcome -- thanks for building apps with us!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tooshel pay it forward! if you're getting great answers, try to be the guy who answers the next guy!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@loicwolff we're not sure. Can you log off of english.se , clear domain cookies, then re-log in?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bluesware that's the list! private betas aren't shown there, but private betas only last 7 days.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers look at my....... horSE! MY HORSE IS AMAZING! http://www.weebls-stuff.com/songs/Amazing+Horse/

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers I am not disagreeing with that, merely pointing out that to do it right, you kind of have to be a dick.. for good reasons

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers it's actually because Apple is willing to say "fuck you" to their partners. I wish more companies had the balls to.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@vidluther I would wait until the site reaches public beta. private beta is only 7 days.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@D0cNet you can't, rep is only earned on the parent site

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@splattne can't wait to see Doodle Jump upscaled to 1080p.. :P

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@pzurek er.. no tags? there's 8 pages of tags.. http://money.stackexchange.com/tags

@wilshipley HULK SMASH PUNY FRENCH! http://i402.photobucket.com/albums/pp105/mxlm/img024-1.jpg

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bkaid see http://stackexchange.com for that

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@theloudninja Well, I sure as hell won't be doing any of that on the iPad, typing is HORRIBLE on it. Cripplingly bad.

Jeff Atwood

@codinghorror
@abock it's a private beta whitelist-only at the moment so I don't recommend linking it quite yet

@averyj you should ask on this Q&A site I heard of

@codinghorror
@jongalloway Inception was an OK dramatic action movie, but it felt mostly like a lot of excuses for putting crazy crap on the movie screen

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@haacked sometimes the code lies.

Jeff Atwood

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers I'm seeing quite a bit of scary jargon on the wikipedia homepage. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers if you're a snowboarder and hear snowboarder jargon it means you're in the right place, no?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@srulyt yes, many tweaks, every day.. WIP

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers basically what I'm saying is you have to let go of "we want to appeal to everyone" to have anything GOOD

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers the opposite of not scaring off non-techie users is.. Digg. Least Common Denominator, linkspam.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente see http://goo.gl/SN2K -- only downsides, no upside

@codeyman I liked Win ME! Better than Vista, I say.

@icelava tsk tsk tsk.. http://photo.stackexchange.com/users/802/icelava

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@BoltClock good idea, I burninated that one just now too

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@marissamayer ever seen Groundhog Day, though? http://goo.gl/qJ6X

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SuperDalgas next up, helicopters!!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@intlect sure! -- support http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/5489/pets

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@pablogl thanks! just fulfill those commitments and you *can* commit to more sites! http://area51.stackexchange.com/faq has details

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@adoran2 perhaps a little but, the idea that you have an actual "we all love this sh*t!" community trumps minor fragmentation.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tooshel my "solution" was to make poor @michaelfogcreek do it :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer not without Xbox Kinect you ain't

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer it really is amazing how profoundly bad PHP is, and it's also amazing that doesn't seem to matter in practice.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jarrod_dixon looks delicious! almost as delicious as my 7-11 nachos..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@HMXCasey auth is done by xbox live login and the CPU serial #.. either is good. Use the web tool to transfer DRM to new CPU.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@OmarShahine ask on http://superuser.com , but you might need to swap RAM or video card (if discrete)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@siracusa I think chocolate chip pancake wrapped sausage on a stick easily trumps that

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley how come we're not Friendster friends, man? F**k you!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@straygeek yes, this is called http://google.com :) but seriously we are doing some work on the http://stackexchange.com homepage

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@alasdairnorth changes all the time due to manufacturing and model changes. constantly changing. rapidly, too.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@samvermette I did 30 seconds, source files weren't *originally* AAC though. And supposedly it doesn't work with iTunes purchased songs.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@nbarnwell @nathanbowers hmm, don't most cameras have a push-and-hold to turn on mechanism anyway? faster than swipe

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers why unlock? why not just allow access to JUST camera? think outside the box, man! and yes, camera = the moment.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers should be a hardware button I can map to camera. There used to be -- with double-home. Not any more.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers yeah, tell that to all the great pictures of Rock Hard Awesome I've missed because of: power, slide, find camera app, launch

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers it's in everyone's best interests that IE9 not suck, and by all reports, it looks like they're achieving that goal.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cwrea yes! I wish more SE 1.0 site owners understood the benefits of the new model as well as you do -- working site, win for everyone
