@deadprogrammer there is a kernel of truth there, though: Apple will gladly sacrifice significant percent of functionality for aesthetics.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer wow, attacking the messenger in a messianistic fervor .. you are seriously in fanboy territory now!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@michaelpinto more like iPad : Wii :: Xbox/PS3 : netbook

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@splattne every time I have to "type" something on iPhone I want to kill myself. And that's 90% of what I do every day..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@michaelpinto some say the same about netbooks, but contrast netbook with ipad. One, I can actually get work done on vs. fingerpainting

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@timbray chick tracts are so awesome.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lucasmccoy not all of them :) I was referring more to lack of stability / reliability

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers they do but on the internal intranet which is all designed for IE

@jonskeet all thanks to Sam Saffron aka Waffles!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@brysonholland you're right that (one link, no images) is a special ruleset though. Let me look at relaxing that for private betas at least.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@brysonholland did you check the /faq ? the limits are dramatically lower. compare with stack overflow /faq

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers I'll try to remember how best that is the fifteenth time I'm fumbling for the camera to get the picture in time

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@siracusa leave feedback for that (Stack Mobile) here http://goo.gl/JdRE

@codinghorror
@mkedobbs the taxonomy is pretty solid -- make sure you're clicking through to combine tags on the "related tags" sidebar.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mkedobbs depends if you're doing a "gee, it sorta feels like rain" search -- for me, I'm usually searching for specific posts I know exist.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mkedobbs make sure you're aware of http://stackoverflow.com/search -- search for the word "ninja"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Amadiere we have a full time team on it now, so don't be shy with suggestions for improvement. That's all I'm saying :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Amadiere thanks! if you have any careers feedback for us on ways we can make the experience better.. http://meta.stackoverflow.com

@kevindente PDFs in email can be 'forwarded' to ibooks according to Apple. Tap and hold..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@theothernt I see negative value in xhtml.. http://goo.gl/D82b

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley yeah but compare to the 3GS or 4. the 3G is just *balls* slow.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@saturn825 yeah, there are so many cool things we're working on or launching that I'd love to talk about but @spolsky is not game

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@SpecKK interesting idea -- every real name post gets an ambient +1 ?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@elijahmanor check out http://careers.stackoverflow.com if you haven't already -- just got a new unified UI

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente it's all about PHP baby, the Visual Basic of web dev

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jonskeet I'll take that over the public spitting I've gotten to see

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@HMXCasey dude seriously? lugging keyboard + ipad? laptop envy much? :)

@codinghorror
@arsetechnica I'm removing your kiss from my list of the best things in life.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@RockBandAide I heard a radio interview with the Scorpions where they were pretty cool about music games and music sharing..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@izevaka LET US NEVER SPEAK OF THIS AGAIN

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@apetresc hey thanks, psst I heard something else might happen next Wednesday, too..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kch great answer, I upvoted. But yes you'll have to wait the 2 days. (and for bounties on old questions, it's minimum 24 hours)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ElizabethSalter best thing I've seen all day! I can't believe @jarrod_dixon let you take a pic of him!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Supermathie congrats! Sorry it took so long to get them out!

Jeff Atwood

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@codeaplus it has to do with restoring backup of iPhone 3 over the iPhone 4 -- the restore does that.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers you earned that iPhone4 -- at great cost to your soul

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@subdigital I did it by taking the iPad ones (1024x1024) and cropping them to the right size. But yes looks REAL bad low-res.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@codeaplus it was disabled on my phone in the settings -- verified. Not sure why.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@timoreilly "how about making iTunes just manage music?" (via @wilshipley) see this 'functions of itunes' link http://j.mp/cdyShx

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers what time did you get there? My magical revolutionary line is a few hundred people

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@seesharp which Apple store you at?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@HMXCasey could go either way. Keep us in the loop!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente SUCK IT DENTE! I'll have mine before yours now!! hahaha!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@el_joni sorry about that.. communication error, will be fixed soon!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@brysonholland ah, good idea -- let's look at that

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kevindente I couldn't get the order form to offer me anything else..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@anooj friggin' love the damn thing, go buy one

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life it's crazy that you work for MSFT and not Facebook

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ghewgill we weren't always tracking user history, so that's when the dating starts

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ghewgill yes, after 390 days we are obligated to hire you :)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mstum no, you're catching us in deployments.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life I'm surprised when that *doesn't* happen

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lucasmccoy where was this place you worked?

@AdamWright Any reason you're not using static browser bookmarks if you want them to be 100% passive?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ivoflipse5 you're welcome! Sorry it took so long

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tweakt the tools are abysmal. Windows for Workgroups 3.11 era GUIs. If that.

Jeff Atwood

@henriwatson ctrl+f and search for it in the target link. It's there :)

@HMXCasey yes, Toy Story 3 will make you cry like a little pu**y. guaranteed. A .. er.. friend .. told me..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lloydbudd there is a WordPress Area 51 site proposal as well.. http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/1500/wordpress-answers

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ivoflipse5 I don't *hate* it. But I don't like it. I am not sure it will survive as a public website by our metrics.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@ivoflipse5 meh, I'm not really down with gaming as part of our core mission. No real learning there, lots of other sites do it.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wilshipley only cool, if you did it with the help of a computer program you wrote. 23 years ago.

@NathanBowers the other people who participate in the comments "have time". Warning: you're running afoul of a Clay Shirky rule..
