@icreatelife let’s add some math: seems orange to red side ratio is 1:5 which means that impact drop over years is 1:25 which is good. but imo over 5 years the impact drop would be even larger. if we have red and orange cubes, the ratio would be 1:125 which imo is more accurate drop over 5y

@munificentbob i loved listening to the genre Glitch or Glitch Hop and in particular Glitch Mob 🎧🎧

I've been programming and listening to electronic music for 3/4 of my life now, and it's crazy how much pleasure it still brings me just to put some headphones on, play a continuous mix, and write some code.

@fun_pro respect to you and to sticking to your principles!

@dimkir Companies get away with things because we are often too lazy to change. I think we should give an opportunity to change and improve, but when companies prove again and again they are not aligned with our interests it should not be tolerated.

If anyone was watching Fun Programming videos in YouTube, sorry, I finally closed my google account. But no worries, they are all still available at funprogramming.org

@munificentbob and max out brightness on your phone :)))

Was going through the hard drive and stumbled onto this photo. During the 2017 eclipse, I took two photos with the exact same settings and subjects before and during totality so that you can get a sense of how much darker a total eclipse is:

@deonjordaan @SahilBloom maybe pretty geometric shape, but usability design is horrendous. Clumsy multi step loading process, spilling over when boiled, messy cleaning, easy to melt handle over gas stove. There’s a reason Nespresso are multi billion success, but those octagonal tins are dime a dozen

@SahilBloom I wouldn't be able to call any one thing my #1 choice for 'most beautiful', since there are just too many things I admire. This one definitely comes to mind though. Perhaps not 'beautiful' in the traditional sense, unless you see beauty in simplicity and function.

What is the most beautiful product design of all time?

@theburningmonk @FarrahC32 @awscloud Probably it was lost somewhere in AWS Glacier and finally they found it :)

@dimkir @FarrahC32 @awscloud thanks! I did get the hero status back in 2018, this was a gift that they sent me recently, not sure what was the occasion though :-P

Thank you ⁦@FarrahC32⁩ and ⁦@awscloud⁩ for the thoughtful gift 🙏🙏🙏

@theburningmonk @FarrahC32 @awscloud I mean “Production ready serverless” course came out 2-3 years ago, and i would have given you the t shirt right there and then :))))

@theburningmonk @FarrahC32 @awscloud Congrat Yan! Surprised it took couple of years to arrive :))))

@adubism @jbesw @jennleaver @stripe Aws actually improved a LOT their docs since redesign about two years ago. Seems they put docs as a priority as they realized that bad docs is a barrier for entry. Before it seemed their docs were generated by one guy with a Perl script, but now most of of the docs are human(e)

I spoke too soon last week. 🥴@stripe rescinded my signed offer due to changing company priorities. 🤷🏼‍♀️ To say that I’m shocked and saddened is an understatement. What happened - and the way it was communicated - wasn’t right. This isn’t the way you treat people.

@mavi888uy your content is exceptional! you cover so many cutting edge topics and in such a great depth! i am always blown away!!! Go CDK, CDK, CDK!!!! :)))

I get questions regularly about how I manage to create so much content. Now this is my job 🤷🏽‍♀️. However, when I was a developer I was speaking once a month somewhere and uploading a weekly youtube video. Maybe my strategies back then are more valuable to you. 🧵👇🏽

@mavi888uy fantastic

You did all the hard work 🔥well deserved

@EricLengyel wow! that’s an absolutely brilliant level of knowledge of the system environment and perfect application of “hacking” mindset! And for doing it at such a young age! My hat is off ! 🎓

You can see in this picture that the Centris had two little buttons on the front. One was a reset button, and the other generated a non-maskable interrupt (NMI). If Macsbug was installed, the NMI button froze everything and dropped you into the system debugger.

Back in 1993, I was taking a number theory class, and there was a semester-long factorization contest that we could participate in. I implemented a distributed multiple polynomial quadratic sieve (MPQS) for the Mac, and I needed a cluster of computers to run it on.

@shanselman why is twitter hiding the original tweet?

Tile has been a thing for YEARS. I feel bad for them. They work great and are still gonna be destroyed.

@prdoyle @sophiebits @erikras i was baffled my the decimal point there (as i have never actually seen it used a decimal non-integer in my lifetime). But indeed 5 and 2/16 which is $5.125 cents in decimal. Good luck getting that fractional cent ;)

@sophiebits @erikras The cheque is pretty clear about this: it's 5 dollars plus 0.2 dollars in hexadecimal. 0.2 in hexadecimal is 2/16, which equals 32/256.

Knuth check

@munificentbob you’re my hero! Go Muni, go! FTW!

Getting there...

@John_Papa i was very excited about bulma when i first heard of it. it does many things in a nice cleaner (subjectively speaking) way, but i still use bootstrap because the next arbitrary developer who will have to support the website or prototype has only like 0.001% chance to know bulma

Poll ... Bootstrap was on top of the mountain a few years ago. There are many other choices today. Today, what are your favorite CSS and design tools? Please leave your top ones in the comments

@Tiago_de_Vassal @alexbdebrie wow that’s fantastic advice !

🙏 Request for help: If you *watch* developer videos on YouTube, what do you like? What don't you like? If you *make* developer videos, any tips? Looking to do more YouTube content (DynamoDB, Serverless, AWS) in the upcoming months.
