@secretGeek well, April Fool's is a hell of a lot more *fun* than Easter. Can't be bigger than halloween because no slutty outfits involved

@RobBurke that's google being awesome, not us. Like I've been saying, Google is *crushing* other engines in indexing. Nobody listens...

@prashant_vc unicorn! please! http://blog.stackoverflow.com/2010/03/reminder-its-april-1st/

@jongalloway PG&E punk'd

@NathanBowers don't you think the open source fonts will win in the long run? if rental is the "alternative", they will.

@jonskeet you need to discover a new species of tag

@NoobTech http://blog.stackoverflow.com/2010/03/reminder-its-april-1st/

@airheadnerd agree, gaming is the hidden ace in the hole. I've gotten more $ value out of my iPhone w/r/t games than any Nintendo, EVER

@marcoarment that is also why I am very encouraged to see "fast" next to iPad. Speed matters. Even for grandmas and shit.

@marcoarment oh my god, my wife's 3G makes me want to stab myself in the face. So incredibly slow. I can't imagine anything slower.

@siracusa I think the iPhone is the absolute vanguard here, and the iPad is a .. side effect. That's my opinion.

@JenRBoyd wow.

@kevindente get one of the 3-output ATI cards http://goo.gl/1g4N

@drachenstern depends what time zone you're in..

@kevinmontrose lol it does!

@kevindente oh God, you've become a Java developer, haven't you? user = u is pretty clear in our code..

@benj that's funny because you're right.. I just made it bool unicorns

@kevindente no, @betsyphd is overdue for a new phone.. the 3G is so freakin' SLOW compared to the 3gs. Painful. Really painful.

@NathanBowers the 3G frankly is a pile of crap compared to the 3GS. Wonder if v4 will do that to the 3GS?

@ivoflipse5 I meant SO in the generic engine sense

@deanberris VCs do not speak "experts exchange" sadly..

@lazycoder no dude, when you set it in dev tools it's like exercising the zoom USER INTERFACE FUNCTION. It ain't CSS.

@lazycoder appreciate the attempt, but doesn't work in CSS. It's know that zooming and in out in the UI "fixes" this.

@NathanBowers yeah, the pain chart is funny until you see someone get to 10. It's pretty scary, actually. (hint: childbirth)

@mike_elgan the JooJoo wasn't murdered, it committed suicide

@Carnage4Life mw2 is dead, dead, dead -- it has been obsoleted by Bad Company 2 multi. Seriously. It is that much better.

@RockBandAide ooh, "Matt Smith". That's gonna be a tough one..

@wilshipley WHAT?

@dotNetkow glad to hear stackoverflow.com worked well for you -- consider "paying it forward" by answering a Q from your fellow programmers!

@Demize99 I upgraded from a GTX 280 to an ATI 5870 and my framerate more than doubled in BF:BC2. Seriously. Brilliant game BTW!

@jzy hi mom!

@jzy that creepy music makes me want to become a serial killer.. can't be good.

@kevindente touch and form factor are also limiting on the iPad. Ideal config is iPhone + netbook. iPad 60% same weaknesses as iPhone.

@RRSchulz did your gmail account info change? email team@stackoverflow.com with details and include your account URL please

@kevindente hmm no, I could ditch my laptop for an iPhone if I *had* to. For the essentials, it works great.

@kevindente 0% chance of that happening IMO. But, we'll see. Phones wayyyyy more important than computers. Like 2 orders of magnitude.

@NathanBowers kids are like women. If you don't "get" them, it's because you haven't met the right one yet -- your own!

@wilshipley wow that guy is a massive fruit loop

@kevindente no, everyone has to have a smartphone; it's required. Got a kid? Got a significant other? All phones will be smartphones.

@kevindente the iPad is too much of a fixie bicycle to be bigger than iPhone. There is the iPod Touch, but not convinced it's similar

@secretGeek you should start a fan page for that on Facebook

@ryaneastabrook ooh, I don't think @superdalgas would say I "spoil" him. :p Sorry @superdalgas <3

@SaraH6V57Z9 well, except claims are expenses, whereas orders are income .. I am no businessman, but that's the theory anyway

@jbwebb @superdalgas is workin' it at the moment

@Hybridfusion at least my chairs aren't totally gay. I'm just sayin'.

@HMXCasey will you guys sign my Guitar Hero III box????

@matrix9180 can't repro -- when I follow the link it snaps to the right answer on my iPhone 3GS

@NathanBowers basically, login/identity support needs to be part of the browser executable and not built manually by every website

@jongalloway hmm, I wonder why MSFT security essentials doesn't SHIP INSIDE WINDOWS, then? Quite the mystery wrapped inside the paradox!

@ivoflipse5 well, that was my answer.. the homepage is pretty random on all the sites!

@wilshipley yes, the iPhone is totally iStupid!! Where do I send your Windows 7 Phone dev kit to? Shall I have it autographed by Ballmer?

@Apey nobody rocks the v-neck blouse tee like Morrisey

@wilshipley I blame the lawyers. For that, and .. well, everything.

@yuletide DONE

@edbott yeah, but nobody blames apple for that -- all AT&T. Apple isn't an innocent, but the phone companies are evil incarnate.

@dlredden almost never works though

@wilshipley you'll have to make do with three gees. I was unable to work a Bee Gees joke in here, but I may come back to it.

@jonskeet what you didn't say, and is kinda important, is that the *docs* are wrong in that case. Hard to fault a user for that..

@RockBandAide GET ALL THE ROCK BAND 3 SEKRITS!!!

@NathanBowers and from a "designer" makes it a cardinal sin in my book. Very, very bad.

@NathanBowers isn't that the same idea behind digg and reddit? "Here's 300 links of infotainment you might like .. submitted by USERS!"

@jonskeet interesting, I use lazy to mean ... zzz...

@mstum strangely, mine has been working REALLY well. Only the occasional black screen (maybe 2-3 times to date) and it's VERY momentary.

@migueldeicaza wow, the touchpad is on the back. so fail, it hurts me a little.

@gillesv oh, I am sure it is state of the art DVD-ROM

@jpalioto I thought that was Microsoft's strategy OH SNAP

@betsyphd asks "what will you do with the venture capital?" me: "we'll make it RAIN!" her: "..."

@rexm @nathanbowers but they do in practice; when you see 2 "users" posting in the thread, it's obvious they are the same.

@haacked iAm iGuessing iThat iWas iPosted iFrom iYour iPhone

@NathanBowers the geometric patterns are a hash of the IP address (or email, if we have it) so they convey information if same, same IP

@NathanBowers Apple also managed to scale being a massive douche, so it's kind of a mixed blessing

@blaenk thanks done! was there a class break? http://goo.gl/8AQK

@deadprogrammer oh yes, this is a known thing -- sorting is one of the most expensive database operations by far

@tundal45 see http://blog.stackoverflow.com

@nathanbowers @timoreilly BUFFERING

@developingchris ask the question on superuser.com instead ; be the change you want to see

@djwtwo already bought and eaten weeks ago :)

@NathanBowers It's OK, we expect that from Mac users

@hotdogsladies also a problem with "mark as spam". Blog-worthy IMO, I do that all the time, too.

@HMXCasey it better be about nickelback!

@mmacaulay or well http://twitter.com/codinghorror/status/10848732592

@secretGeek //TODONT

@jzy let's be honest: in your heart you knew you didn't really *deserve* to live anyway.

@mrdenny I also begin all my variables with "var", too

@andiih very, very long story, but we also wanted downvotes to be more "effective" against questions

@eschaton email details (please include lots) to team@stackoverflow.com

@bhaaratcrckt see http://goo.gl/66sG and http://goo.gl/tPGc

@NathanBowers chrome add-in does it

@mattcutts I hope Google is paying you enough for new kidneys

@NathanBowers usually they don't care. but Farmville players probably know the "byzantine" rules of Farmville. I'M JUST SAYIN

@marcgravell be careful, as the +5 for answers is not reflected yet.. not an issue for users with vast numbers of answers, though

@jaredpar see http://meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/43029/daily-reputation-limit-just-broke

@npdoty <3

@npdoty little whoopsie on our end, fixing now. Apologies.

@waxpancake "Don't look at it as stupid, instead offer it then lay atop your giant Dragon-sized pile of gold coins and treasure" lol

@seesharp so you should finish season 6 by approximately 2015.

@mstum shouldn't you claim it as the first user to 10k rep on SO? :) of course..

@jonathansampson you have no time for games, you're about to have a baby. Trust me :)

@migueldeicaza WHY ARENT MY OPTIMIZATIONS OPTIMIZING?!?!!

@RockBandAide is this the new thing? full combos are boring, so now it's gotta be a full combo "playing blind"? Wow.
