@deadprogrammer It will not work, except as a quack placebo

@codinghorror
@ftrain Switch Labo is quite fun https://t.co/a6KWue00SD

@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer he can take all the cloraquawhatsit he wants in my book! just pour it in there!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@rayhatfield @discourse all good. you're absolutely correct, everything should be snopes-ed! 🙇♂️

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@rayhatfield did I *say* he wrote it? ;) Also I'm proud to mention Snopes is a @discourse customer! 👍

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer does anyone even remember what a POD is?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@chetfaliszek @Twitter lol the inventor of email guy, I had forgotten about him

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jzy @lizardbill This reminds me, I need to re-watch Dredd (2012)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
Well, that lasted about 3 years of EDC. I guess I could have pushed it a bit further? Here's the new one. https://t.co/sZbVhF9yz6 https://t.co/XCrv01LamA

@codinghorror
@john_lam @textfiles omg a-team acoustic modem! 😍

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kennwhite @kpoulsen yeah agree, the tradeoffs are squarely in the "worth it" category at the moment (education in a remote only world) and the company seems serious about fixing their product

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer also I am into very expensive neon yellow urine.. https://t.co/DzJYhkGS7t

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer I already take Omnium each day, it makes me super hero strong man!! 💪 https://t.co/KkqlNdDLYb

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life OK, that is fair, I am now partially convinced

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@drewtetz love this, particularly the color spread

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles @sharpieblamer this certainly explains some other very odd stores I see around towns nearby

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Beschizza Well, people were legit taking fish aquarium antibiotics so there is *some* medical precedent

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Beschizza “What do you have to lose?” You could lose.. your.. life?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@shog9 There may be hot singles in your area

@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@HowardvRooijen @_derekwilson so SO good

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@djbaskin holy cow that blew up!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jonskeet simplification is almost always the correct call. I can show you screenshots of Discourse in 2013 side by side with Discourse today and.. it's clear that we made it too complex in 2013. It's such a common mistake!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jonskeet more than one textbox is a problem, you say? ;) https://t.co/2GMbBMqXR1

@textfiles @dnalounge "Thank you for your generous donation! With your support, we will prevent this place from being turned into a Pottery Barn!" 🤣

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@textfiles @dnalounge loooove Bootie mashups. Donated.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@djbaskin I am ashamed to admit it took me like a full minute to get this 🤣

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@chetfaliszek @mattsinthemkt @WhiteSwan206 I'm admiring @textfiles who goes for walks at night https://t.co/VXPX4oGlMy

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@stevesi but us Amiga people were always elitists, what with our fancy multitasking GUI and fancy multi-chip systems

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@stevesi it's funny because in college (1988-1992) I was all like "IBM PC is shit!" until I lived with a hallmate running Windows 3.0 and I was .. kind of impressed with it despite myself?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@superwuster it says "Last daily update on April 1, 2020. Please check back on Saturday, April 4 for our next update." Has it been updated? https://t.co/npLHkbtRRi

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@stevesi I have some classics in my office but not 1.0 https://t.co/chpQTdRzDh

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@chetfaliszek @sudogene mask buddies! We're making masks also. Everyone should be..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@joshk @BillGates Bill is not fucking around. Much respect. 🙇♂️

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jeffsand look at you makin' it happen 🙌

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Joseph_Mike @Carnage4Life that's what blows my mind 🤯

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@TimSweeneyEpic buckling spring is truly old old school indeed

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@sudogene TIL! We're making masks soon.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
and this is me, cashing an old school physical hosting check for Discourse yesterday (it's a 6+ months old wildfire era re-used N95, don't @ me) https://t.co/3kldb0I1lU

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life I'll take a contrarian opinion. Being able to change your mind is a key life skill, and they are on the right trajectory. Doesn't atone for bad leadership of course (and I agree!!), but it's kinda wrong to dunk on this one IMO

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cwodtke How about https://t.co/epLRFMMTWM

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life but I also agree with the rollback, too big of a change at the worst possible time

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life it does kinda hold up, in my opinion. the third party cookie defaults are totally out of control at the moment, absolute lawless wasteland

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life I don't think it's a conspiracy. The change is valid and solid. It's just a BIG change at a particularly not-great time.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@_m_b_j_ @maybebobparr video and voice (and real time chat) are important spices. They shouldn't be the whole meal, though.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Cantu5Andy @guitarcoder lot of weightlifters and diet people though. Diet industry is legit huuuuge

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
and just a reminder: I'm not actually talented. I'm just a good storyteller. You could be too. https://t.co/2gQ32hnFFt

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
We insist that discussions are better and more useful when they’re made up of complete sentences and ideally, a series of paragraphs that tell a coherent story. Being a great storyteller will help you in your career more than anything else I can think of. Work towards that. 💪

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life maybe they'll gut the massive and needlessly expensive layer of middle management we have in education and healthcare here in the US. See "administrative costs" https://t.co/EQsYfqmp2K

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mattparkins I knew it was the case in the past, but like the old 140 character limit, I thought maybe they had "fixed" it.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
in other news, I learned starting a tweet with an at-username makes it not show up in your public timeline, still

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@_m_b_j_ preach! this is why we founded @discourse -- power of the paragraph 😊

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@NathanBowers @jasonfried hard no on the latter

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@guitarcoder @Cantu5Andy another metric I use which might be helpful: which industries have the most stadiums named after them? That's a high index of questionability, and there are a LOT named after mattress firms.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Cantu5Andy omg you're right!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@chetfaliszek ugh. I used to like Dr. Drew back in the lovelines radio days. Pals with Scott Adams is a huuuuuge red flag.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@OmarShahine is silicone an acceptable mask material per testing? I know cotton gets a pass for sure based on the data I've seen.. but .. silicone?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@mmuekk The article says this, if you actually read it.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
"He wrote his senior thesis on Alban Berg's opera Wozzeck and Claude Debussy's opera Pelléas et Mélisande. He graduated in 1963, and later studied at UCLA, from which he earned a master's degree in folklore and ethnomusicology." HOLY SHIT Y'ALL 🤯 https://t.co/XhWj2TnXF5

@codinghorror
@joekiller @iontodirel people use optane!?!?!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@braiamp I am the opposite of NAS guy

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@RHJOfficial no, I need to monitor this.. MUST. SEE. EVERY. PERCENT.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@gamesover @codesector just windows 10 generic GUI file copy. like Forrest Gump, I am a simple man!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@joekiller @iontodirel no way that any non-crap m.2 SSD and spinning rust have similar sequential speeds {{citation needed}}

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@iontodirel that's because it is copying from an HDD my man, that's the whole point, to get *off* the spinning rust

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lizardbill I heard him for the first time today (brief drive for required errands, in mask and gloves) and it was a revelation. Imagine actual FUCKING leadership. I had no idea how much I missed that.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer I think they have gotten a bit better in the last few years.. I ordered some NERF mods recently and the quality and durability was notably improved

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@spies_please resting LOVE face

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bookatmac @kylealden @2ndClassClown benches look pretty solid to me, but yeah if it was a primary boot drive I'd go Samsung for sure

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@bookatmac @kylealden @2ndClassClown well, it's for media, so it doesn't need to be top shelf. but it got a good review, and I do insist on real M.2.. https://t.co/yYu1MfY5FV

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@chinhdo yeah raw is tough, like if you do 1:1 blu-ray rips. Those files are GINORMOUS

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@orienwu @CraigEwert SSDs have gotten very reliable indeed in the last 5 years. Didn't use to be the case tho. See https://t.co/mgpUpBa9TH

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@chinhdo yeah 10TB is gonna be a looong while. I consolidated down from 4TB (2 x 2TB), I figured ain't nobody need THAT much media lol

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@2ndClassClown $230 for 2TB. Used to be more like $500+

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer also.. who cares? hand washing works. Why do we need sanitizer? bring a bottle of soap and water mix.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer unfortunately human idiocy is a uniquely difficult thing to treat, hence.. exponential spread

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jeffsand @PopeyesChicken we had Popeyes last night too!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer yet again exponential growth brah its like you aren't hearing me

@codinghorror
@johnolilly @cazwax @MitchellBaker that's what I keep telling @featheredtoast ! I do like our nest door camera and thermometer tho!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@johnolilly @cazwax @MitchellBaker don't let this go all Nest Smoke Detector on you. Ain't nobody got time for that

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life NEGATIVE A HUNDRED AND TWENTY ONE PERCENT Dare

@codinghorror
rngesus has chosn you, @IanLopshire -- and thank you to everyone for raising $1744.20 for the great slate! https://t.co/k7MPRVRQ8Q

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
ok we're good! That's over 30 donations to @pinboard's great slate. Thank you all very much! Let me get the stats together and pray to rngesus for a winner 🙏

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard house would *never* have flipped, and there would have been utter gridlock in other dimensions though. Trump completey sucks, but "clinton won" is not a panacea either.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tonyztan excellent point, thank you

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
minor correction this is the 64gb model. Still an amazing deal for $40 ;)

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
USA entries only please, I can't deal with international shipping at this time. And yes it will be wiped down *thoroughly*

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kipkniskern @Carnage4Life That’s why you would need to buy the top 25 or 50
