@goblinodds strongly recommend them as a red wine garnish on a Friday the 13th or (if feeling particularly sacrilegious) Easter Sunday party

hmmmmmm https://t.co/y3bdWam8F2

And from a users point of view they just fucking irritating https://t.co/pm55agHuxx

Strong agree - I want to avoid services that work this way, I just don't trust them. https://t.co/4tyj4CDwUP

RT @gitlost: fuck you

If I could ask to be notified about follow ups to a thread (a feature I want) and that notification only happened on the for you page then it would be a lot more tempting.

How come everybody tries the stick approach to algo timelines? Offer me something I can ONLY get from it. ("Personalized tweets are great for me" THANK YOU FOR ENJOYING THE STATISTICAL AVERAGE OF CONTENT SLURRY, CITIZEN)

fuck you

Hmm. Maybe I should convert my (fun, not money making) bots to Selenium bots instead OTOH I despise headless web browser automation so I am not sure that would actually be fun. https://t.co/PNCK9nhvLe

Can you spot the small but important detail missing from this sign? https://t.co/sbIrrwwYU8

The sort of bots this kills: cute puppies every femtosecond, Benedictine quote of the day, notify me when citizen kane 2 releases The sorts of bots this does not kill (they use Puppeteer, Playwright, Selenium, etc, not the API): bitcoin spam, fake camgirl sites, phishing DMs https://t.co/N80e6wTljF

1) what the fuck, this is going to make Twitter way less fun for me 2) are u still going to be able to gank the tokens out of the iOS app and talk to the api without getting your own, because that would be funny and also so dumb https://t.co/LKHVgsD17b

Starting February 9, we will no longer support free access to the Twitter API, both v2 and v1.1. A paid basic tier will be available instead 🧵

1. This is a cool leaderboard 2. iTerm? Lol. iTerm users ain't hard. iTerm can't keep up with /var/log/messages. iTerm users open terminals to paste curl commands they copied from Chrome. Terminal[.]app users are the real ones https://t.co/ALBlVVZDcJ

Really wish I could search the web for a string that includes quotes, would make finding errors much easier

Disabling orientation lock is true suffering

We have https://t.co/YGJueN5JEO right? We can reflow PDFs. The next task: shipping an image viewer on my phone that can reformat screenshots made by filthy desktop users

Is there a good source for the history of Kubernetes, what problems it solved at the time it was created, what the engineers tried before settling on Kubernetes, that kind of thing? Coming from such a different background I find many of its interfaces absolutely baffling.

Programmers for the DEC TOPS-20: the original TENEX engineers

Now, of course I want web3 Discord. Where community members own their keys. Urbit has a shot at that, as do other projects. But Discord itself is like a web2-to-web3 bridge. They could add wallet support and E2E. Ideally via something like Apple's recovery keys... https://t.co/oCn3GOPD3J

As just one example, this is a major new feature. On par with essentially building Reddit into the app. Somehow they squashed this giant thing into the UX and it works fairly well! https://t.co/Yf0QfwskDG

I am very impressed by how well Discord has executed recently. The slew of new features they’ve added — from Reddit-style forums to Substack-style subscriptions — has really leveled up the platform. It's truly a private social network.

If you've never played Amnesia, get 1-3 friends and 2-5 drinks each, hook the game up to your TV, turn off all the lights, sit on the couch next to each other, and pass the controller to someone new at each death. https://t.co/3kHKmCkhHD

Ofc for other reasons thank GOD the Perl spores couldn't find purchase in my brain back then

If I had learned Perl like I tried to that one time, I would maybe never have gotten sick of csh quoting bullshit and I'd still be a tcsh person today. Can u imagine. I'd be even worse

Is there anyone on all of Twitter who has personal experience with csh quoting, besides me? In 2005 I was ofc relearning shit everyone knew in the 80s. (Sad!)

"I am programming this thing in bash" you could say if you are repeatedly hitting something with a hammer, or I guess the shell thing, either way

OBVIOUSLY awk is so named for its syntax 👉👈

tcsh is the sound that Bourne shell users made when they learned someone thought it would be worth adding line editing to csh. The tcsh people adopted it for reasons that are not expressible in Backus-Naur form

csh is the original spelling of sksksksksksksk, which is the reaction that programmers got when they started talking about quoting

The original Bourne shell is called sh because that's what users said when they started to explain that in order to do any work with it you'd also need to learn sed anyway

It's called bash bc that's what you're doing to the poor XML document you're trying to parse with grep, if, and tears

the shell is called bash bc that's what u wanna do to it when u have to look up how many brackets ur if condition will require

Their jeans category is now dominated by sweatpants that look like jeans and come in sizes like S/M/L rather than inches. I am pretty sure this is "negging", which is illegal

Uniqlo has stopped selling my jeans and I can't express how defeated I feel by this

I EXPLICITLY picked a gigantic retailer with an easily identifiable product so that I would never have to try on jeans again. These fit great. I know exactly what I want. I bought some less than a year ago. And now I have to start over!!!!!!! 😭

Been putting together lab notes about building my home k8s cluster. Now they're published. Very much a WIP. Deadly serious about the disclaimer 🤠 https://t.co/E9giYnakxf
