@tblodt yeah it looks like a rather scary warning, the format of the email is definitely one I've seen spammers use A LOOOT

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@kkotowicz @tblodt definitely not, never emailed anyone with this name. I searched

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tblodt I'm not following. I don't really use the gmail address book for anything?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@tblodt no, that's not the case here. This is a new contact, but it is a legit one.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jessamyn I'd complain to the vendor about this, I guess there is a small chance it could be random

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Donny_V @jonmbates @shumailxyz @samsaffron These earlier tweets are about a dev environment. For a production deployment, if you are criminally insane and wanna manually set up and hand tune Imagemagick, Redis, Postgres, etc etc etc.. have at it my diggety dawg

@spies_please even that daily show bit with ol' whats-his-name and the "cooter festival" report it took me a good long while to figure out why that was supposed to be funny

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@spies_please this joke is always weird to me because I just never really heard that as a slang word for lady bits when growing up, maybe not a southern thing? Most of my childhood was south-ish

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@manuelhe @frankgiraffe not even related, since a block is bidirectional. A kill file is 100% local. Imagine a kill file that magically killed YOU from the OTHER PERSON'S screen. That's a block. Very different things.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Hanzo55 good riddance to that idiot

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@fraying I need to write a followup, because we did eventually implement ignore. It's a long story but sometimes two people who are otherwise reasonable in every other context just cannot stand each other. Literal oil and water.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@fraying this is exactly what I said in https://t.co/MkQIh6GgiZ

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@wrthfl that's chat software like IRC

@samsaffron @ach0w @juux Hey that's the same CPU in my mini servers! i7-8750H. It's powerful as you can see. https://t.co/CCFsItb39f

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@shumailxyz @samsaffron yeah the real story there based on the pure numbers is how bad OS X is in this result set. Those are fast and recent coffee lake chips..

@codinghorror
@icantrank @erikbryn I think accidental change in tractor speed would be wayy more risky. It'd take crazy powerful winds to move him.

@Dovuro @ID_AA_Carmack we hit 10x the iPhone 4s without question, but that is from 2011. 10x the iPhone 5 would be ~7540 .. even the latest 100w+ Intel chips only hit 6210 https://t.co/KSQFKGNWUJ

@codinghorror
@johnolilly I rewatched Deadwood, and it was a totally different experience. I kinda missed some episodes originally. The unexpected lesson: this is how the west was really won – people finally *stopped* killing each other en masse, and let politics and law take hold to resolve conflicts.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@voretaq7 yeah, that's a block. See ya later!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@deadprogrammer it's a D, Dawg

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@voretaq7 So use a 24-digit PIN code in that case. Not like anyone's *forced* to use faceid. If you're in a high risk situation, use high risk solutions. Easier better security is a win for the human race, versus hard to use and nobody does it.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@voretaq7 faceid is awesome. more secure than a fingerprint, and lets your device dynamically unlock when you show it attention by looking at it. I also use Windows Hello at home for the same reason. I sit down in front of my compy, it's already unlocked..

@stevesi Flash was / is a weird third party thing from a company with a track record of being pretty terrible at that particular thing (Adobe), not native web. It was the web's "floppy drive", if you will, so first to jettison.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@stevesi the other thing Steve Jobs was right about is that building apps in the web browser would eventually win, even on mobile.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@twang @johnolilly you guys have watched Killing Eve season 1, right? I can't recommend it highly enough. So so good.

OK all awarded! See you in Halvøy 🔫

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lavascript I hit the amazon buy limit for these codes, I'll set a reminder and award you tomorrow, OK?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@superscott3000 awarded!

@codinghorror
@oluies can't see that without logging in, unfortunately, can you screenshot that page for me in a reply?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@paulg @briannekimmel @stevesi I *typically* do it the other way around; I give talks based on posts I've written (usually aggregating a few)

@codinghorror
@Indigowd I was worried tanks would be OP in firestorm but with the fuel + ammo system I think they nerfed vehicles a little *too* hard. Maybe have them come with a bit more fuel in the tank. I like that explosive weapons are common though!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Hanzo55 awww yeah Earthquake time yo

@codinghorror
@patio11 @robwalling get busy livin' or get busy dyin'

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
I'll admit, I set up this Stack Overflow house ad for careers when that first launched ~ 2009 https://t.co/Yo0HhIPBCt

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@patio11 we did this all the time at Stack Overflow. We instituted a process long ago that automatically deleted old unanswered questions, downvoted questions with only one answer that has no votes (or only downvotes) etc. Controversial at the time, but not as far as I was concerned.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@cbquist @susanthesquark and I bet they don't have pockets either

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@paulg America is becoming more and more a classist society as wealth inequality swells to historically unprecedented levels — a new gilded age. And “where” your degree came from is a strong class signifier for this gilded age.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@paulg not necessarily, at least at the high end (ivy league etc), they just become fashion brands like Gucci, Prada, Vuitton. Being expensive is a signifier of taste.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
It's literally this, but well animated and voiceovered https://t.co/k0DTxfX4j2

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@aytch @erinspice super unlikely in this specific case though, don't you think?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@erinspice aha! That would make sense. Thank you!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
go look it up and tell me I'm wrong

@leahculver @NotionHQ people still use Dropbox???

@BobbyBe21387908 @New_Narrative russian bot account strikes again.

@codinghorror
@vmbrasseur most tech conferences are unnecessary and people would be better served over time with more permanent structured online artifacts instead of an in-person talk

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@sandykory @paulg it's 280 now, but definitely this is the worst platform for nuance

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jzy @jarrod_dixon you guys need to get your Firestorm on with me https://t.co/l1xYXKiOH7 .. 3/25 be there

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@paulg You can always borrow concepts and ideas from other startups, too. It's good to look, and understand the competitive landscape in detail, but not to obsess over.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@paulg Only if you’re going to copy their great features, e.g. Snapchat Stories as implemented in Instagram Stories. Facebook are masters at this.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@marinintim @Pinboard we're having a discourse right now in fact! Through a 280 character, insane and randomly-threaded format

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard so, like.. imagine Google Groups.. but.. like.. not from Google.. and in a web browser

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
remake was definitely better, for a variety of reasons. Very good bones on the original, studiously preserved in the remake, bigger budget / soundtrack, plus moving story to the USA is more copacetic for the original 80s setting anyways

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lawik you could easily look it up and prove me wrong, that's everyone's goal on the internet!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard you've seriously never used a forum on the internet

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard the old "drink more ovaltine", eh? https://t.co/lHKvIkjRrA

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Pinboard can't afford it, spent all my money on the midterm elections

Jeff Atwood

@ftrain yes but no Google Reader

@szarka they are 100% booked up forever and not accepting any new biz

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@scottwasson they look DOA to me, all cheaper, less features, sidegrades at best

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@migueldeicaza It is all A12 silicon or death in my house now

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jarrod_dixon HEY cat is mo' betta https://t.co/te53sr1P7J

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Supermathie it is worth watching both IMO

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Supermathie that's the worse one as the Jerry Media guys helped produce it.. watch the hulu one for a bit more context.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Supermathie which one? Because one of them involves the protagonists who kinda benefit either way..

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@errantpixel @rands The compression would make 4K total mush salad anyways. Did they say they were going to do 4K?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@Carnage4Life .. but what if the statement being "well, actually"-ed is racist, sexist, bigoted, prejudiced, morally unaccepable etc? 🤔

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@dcseifert I think you meant to say "run Chrome and load the Verge homepage"

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@chetfaliszek @Uber why not use an alternative?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@migueldeicaza That was my immediate and first thought, double the size of the box. Fewer tests would be good too.

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
Another day.. another SHOCKING 23andme revelation https://t.co/V2o8HedoVe
