@bahstgwamt @superwuster isn't the answer obviously yes? So let's send money to opposition parties and make it happen.

@Pinboard @tqbf shouldn't the bearded guy in the pic be holding a gun?

@brockway_llc @Seanbabydotcom thanks, I am simultaneously not enjoying this and learning from it

@superwuster I feel like given infinite government reports, some of them will indeed be prescient. It doesn't matter. What matters is execution in the here and now!

@SageOlson @Pinboard I think it's OK to do this for a little while but they gotta reopen the outdoor stuff by mid-May for the reasons @pinboard previously stated

@jalefkowit @Pinboard https://t.co/r7IWOi5Gt6

@zittrain @Pinboard this is the first thing I googled as well and it looked credible 🤷‍♂️

@Bashar3A variety is important, agree 100%!

@jessfraz I know right?! I would also accept 4k per eye but 8k is impressive

@jessfraz 8k screens in each eye sounds promising, at least! https://t.co/0AATkfxxdq

@Pinboard I never get tired of reading this @cshirky thread, it is an absolute all time classic https://t.co/8bzWrLH1yx .. "Imagine Deez Nutz, but with a travel budget."

@chadchabot @AnandWrites as much as I like tipping, the logic seems inevitable. There is a "yes, and" aspect to tipping (and philanthropic billionaires) where neither addresses the underlying inequality at all

@chx just rip the best reddit threads! guaranteed fatality and traffic. I'm not even kidding!!

@chx right, but harvesting the top x data and presenting it in simple copypasta blog form always wins. I've also gotten quora-level bad answers from there, though Reddit is *seriously* better than quora. It kinda depends on the topic.

@chx you kinda see this in the cottage industry of repackaging Reddit content into blog entries, which is absolutely *thriving*, and does shockingly well (hint: it's because Reddit's format is a nightmare to actually read)

@chx if they're really good they will produce google search artifacts somewhat reliably. otherwise, don't care

@chx aaaand.. nope

@chx not unless it's on Discourse I won't

case is Streacom DA2 https://t.co/Q4fBVed5ih

this is a 9900KS / 64GB DDR4-3000 / 1TB PM981 / Z390 mini-itx build. Sorry AMD but the next round of Discourse server builds is gonna be all you for sure! 🙏

@lizardbill thing is ESPN is fairly safe through this since they get bundled and auto-paid through monthly cable / satellite subscriptions though, right? Not like you can stop paying for ESPN even if you wanted to. https://t.co/pKiyZSgpqP

@patrickc @discourse but TBH there's no good reason to reply over and over, even if it "takes two to tango". Of course your metrics may be better if you allow and encourage this, though. Indicates your metrics are broken at a higher level. Need leadership willing to see this.

@patrickc @discourse One frontier we haven't yet fully explored, but will, is to inhibit folks that dominate the conversation. They *do not like* being conversation limited though, and will complain.. a lot.. about it.

@PavitraGolchha https://t.co/ctFsq5eknN

@patrickc this is something we tried to encourage through software design in @discourse and the difficulty level is, uh .. extreme

@banffchris @Jayne_Statue a more sensible rule: https://t.co/sNxX7ltJK7

@cwodtke @stewartbrand @patrickc I'd also say that "let's connect everyone!" has severe downsides, e.g. https://t.co/h45z1BTBew -- I gave a talk at Twitter and they asked what I saw as the future, and I said "less connection".

@cwodtke @stewartbrand @patrickc can "if it bleeds, it leads" aka "optimize for clickbait" .. really be solved? It's a very difficult problem

@lizardbill season 2 also excellent

@achiengcindy_ omg love this

@paulg This is an excellent measure of average stupidity by age. I was just telling @Supermathie that people in their early 20s are generally idiots. I know I was!

@Supermathie People are pretty dumb until their 30s in my experience, including myself

@ironicsans probably good repros for sale on Etsy, if you're into that 😉

@_mildmelon @Slayemin @wavyknife @Swordzman321 @SeattleJ213 @aurelioacts @bentarnoff Exactly. We've already won at that effort bar. Not so hard, is it?

@billjohnston https://t.co/i0zaszfL6t

@deadprogrammer see https://t.co/XmoQCYFMmS

@jwz @bai0 @textfiles we have always been at war with Eastasia

@_mildmelon @Slayemin @wavyknife @Swordzman321 @SeattleJ213 @aurelioacts @bentarnoff mail a selfie with an "I voted" sticker and your username written on a piece of paper to an automated email address.. point mechanical turk at the email box to verify the presence of username in the photo as well as some kind of voting sticker. That's my first pass.

Also there's a whole How Did This Get Made? podcast on Miami Connection, apparently https://t.co/PAhhH80chf

@_mildmelon @Slayemin @wavyknife @Swordzman321 @SeattleJ213 @aurelioacts @bentarnoff so we can scan teeth radiographs with AI, but this is beyond the reach of our abilities? 🤔

@krmaher It’s a world war level event, feels understandable to me

@patio11 I think you were ahead of the curve here in your previous statements about prepared food becoming the norm

@spies_please the best cat 😍

@twang they stuck the landing too, but: https://t.co/8XbEE9HiHn

@stevesi @harrymccracken is this in the archive @textfiles .. of course it is https://t.co/ucKA3LapRJ

@RageousX it's pure joy. sadly the followup skit (there was a part 2) doesn't quite reach the same heights

@seesharp @SwiftOnSecurity @profalankchen @Office @JenMsft that dialog HAS SO. MUCH. CRAZY... it's worth visiting just to scroll the list.

@SwiftOnSecurity @seesharp @profalankchen @Office @JenMsft that dialog box is insane by the way, there are probably 150 options! https://t.co/70j4C35Z1a

@SwiftOnSecurity @seesharp @profalankchen @Office @JenMsft I'm probably at super vanilla out of the box defaults, I never mess with settings in my old age

@dhh @marknotfound @NathanBowers I was not aware that plain text mime / email content wasn't common any more 😱

@BenHouston3D that would indeed be amazing, we've already seen the ancient 1920s videos upscaled to 4k with the same technique!

@seesharp @profalankchen no repro? https://t.co/kFIUOZZLXY

@migueldeicaza https://t.co/vUn6d3dJng

@betsyphd wow hand written. respect 🙇‍♂️

@marknotfound @NathanBowers ought to be a setting at least

@marknotfound @NathanBowers if they _really_ cared they'd render all the mail as plain text only

@psaffo @bgutierrez cc @deadprogrammer so much we don't yet know. "this. will. be. studied."

@pslohmann @wavyknife @Swordzman321 @SeattleJ213 @aurelioacts @bentarnoff do they? Where's your data to support this? (on the gamer side, I mean)

@pslohmann @wavyknife @Swordzman321 @SeattleJ213 @aurelioacts @bentarnoff I think they would, depending on the owners. Voting is clearly a net positive for the world.

@wavyknife @Swordzman321 @SeattleJ213 @aurelioacts @bentarnoff if you agree with this, nag any dev / pm you personally know working at a major video game company

@Slayemin @wavyknife @Swordzman321 @SeattleJ213 @aurelioacts @bentarnoff we've defeated far, far lesser challenges than this in the past

@MarkdownMonstr @jongalloway hold me im scared

@sangerkatz @kpoulsen @jshkatz cc @deadprogrammer

@__apf__ @malwareunicorn I statistically reject the hypothesis that people use logic

@deadprogrammer thank you for your service 💌

@donpark cc @deadprogrammer

@theotherlinh @JoannaStern @waynesworld @Apple fair, I'm not advocating for gloves, just noting that the big calls are masks and hand washing, gloves are rarely mentioned in calls to action for populations

@superwuster cc @deadprogrammer

@JoannaStern @waynesworld @Apple interestingly, I haven't generally seen mass calls for glove wearing though? Just masks and hand washing?

@Carnage4Life Only the government though right? Gofundmes are fine? It’s still wrong

@fnthawar @chrisfralic Came to say this!

@drewtetz treat yo' self drew tetz

@joshmillard ouch

@SparkyRobot @redqueen76 it's literally the ONLY good sugar cookie, mon

@jongalloway @kevindente just video some existing podcasts set to clever 2D animations!! BOOM DONE

@johnolilly @voting_works done https://t.co/aW7a835YNx -- I encourage others to donate as well, as they can

@rory_blyth that's good. solid state hard drives are much faster anyways

@chetfaliszek yeah VR is the polar opposite of social. Send them some consoles and a bunch of controllers!

@jbarro @tqbf yeah, it's appealing to the people that actually vote at scale

@lbotinelly @manicode @GaussJylle @NavinPokala shout out to @windyoona 👏

@rory_blyth you can expect a letter from my lawyer soon

@lbotinelly @manicode @GaussJylle @NavinPokala there's a whole thing https://t.co/eXaKWVp8Y4

@lbotinelly @GaussJylle @NavinPokala @manicode well I'll be danged https://t.co/H1Q8vMULaK

@Pinboard plus, don't we know now that people with zero symptoms can transmit CV-19? So how exactly does that help this whole "track all the peoples all the time" scenario? Versus masks? hand washing? testing? https://t.co/ubIfLe9m2Z

@Pinboard I feel like there is sooooo much lower hanging fruit on this particular tree. masks. hand washing. testing. a social norm for not talking in crowded spaces, apparently.

@__apf__ @PaolaNotPaolo https://t.co/sNxX7ltJK7

@chipx86 @migueldeicaza @jwz the future is already here -- it's just not evenly distributed

@migueldeicaza @jwz we're not going back to the same world, I don't think

@tqbf Can anyone even tell these old white men apart? Which one is angrier at the clouds? https://t.co/C5mLw4zQ2p

@alexkozak @xor maybe some of aspire to be unicorns, maaaan

@betsyphd was it "made by a mom" tho
