@sogrady Oh, crud. I say it very regularly, but because I firmly expect I’m being incoherent. Now searching for a better phrase.

well, shit. i’d never even thought of the former interpretation and now it seems that i’ve been inadvertently insulting people for *years*.

@TheRealSpaf @jack_daniel I’ve seen plenty of utilikilts. But I’m sartorially stuck for you. What’s the appropriate bow tie pairing?

@headinthebox That orange shirt is underselling your sense of style.

Self-portraits are the hardest ...

When you're removing 1960s wood paneling from 1920s plaster walls it's a great time to multitask and use a hair mask.

Last year's edition of FaceTAV (testing and verification) in London was great, and it's hosted again as a free symposium. Chaired by the illustrious Mark Harman, with a fantastic speaker list. Tony Hoare! And brilliant colleagues Nadia, Satish, Peter! research.fb.com/blog/2019/10/r…

I had an opportunity to meet my fellow panelists last week, and they're awesome people with a wealth of industry experience. If you're interested in hanging out and hearing from us, you can use this link for a discount: sgodelphixcareerpanel.eventbrite.com/?discount=SGOS…

@ptribble @steevmi1 @arclight @jessfraz @hcoyote I had a small cache for years after finishing the initial project development. It's sadly down to my personal collection off 2. Wish I could have gotten you another!

@steevmi1 @arclight @jessfraz @hcoyote Memories. We got one of those mugs for the testing we did in the beta programme - my then boss ended up with it as he did all the work.

@johnlevon If we're sharing, I only remember to use grep -r about 20% of the time, and use find . | xargs grep otherwise.

@Ell_o_Punk Sad to say, the "are you actually technical" implied or explicit question/comment is something that persists in lots of instances of new groups of people you don't already have cred established in. Regardless of title, role, or bio. Happy for any new group that assumes I am.

Oh my God...im not alone! "Are you actually technical? " is another question that i have gotten that's just left me speechless.

@jonmasters I read this as poisson consumption model, and now my mind has gone off on a tangent.

If you have a poison-consumption model then surely not everyone will MCE on a speculative read or walk based on a flip if you can avoid it being architectural

What about speculative consumption of poisoned memory? Anyone playing with that? #sp19

Current status.

@TetonGravity Commentary on Sprinters is missing. This is vital info for when I figure out how to get out of my current ride that just missed this century in manufacture date. (I drive a news van, converted not by sportsmobile into a 4wd. Thus, I happily lack a vanlife instagram account.)

Which one are you?

ICPC 2019 has now its program online! Take a look! conf.researchr.org/program/icpc-2… #icse2019 #montreal

I switched to a CS major over 2 years into my undergrad. (Programming was more fun than ChemE to me.) I decided then the OS class was more interesting than the S/W engineering class. Now I'm reading history of S/W eng, e.g. homepages.cs.ncl.ac.uk/brian.randell/… and Margaret Hamilton.

@abbyfuller This is timely I have a talk to write and code to finish today. Clearly I've done a bunch of small, neglected household chores so far.

@johnlevon Therefore... blocking useful during initialization. Later? Not so clear to me. But, caveat this whole thing with the fact that I am not a cryptographer, nor have I ever played one on TV. :)

@johnlevon My best understanding, may be apocryphal: High-quality entropy does run out, it's based on reading of hardware state. *But* the only time that it truly matters is during startup time, when the RNG state is less-well seeded, thus urandom output is potentially more computable.

@jonmasters @packethost We are the United States government. We don't do that sort of thing.

@packethost I want peace on Earth and good will to all men, and women

Ok. There's someone who likes Sneakers at least as much as I do. Yes, I know every line of dialogue in the movie by heart. Not yet been to the "Playtronics" building, but I'm glad he did: aresluna.org/stories/toy-co…

The feeling when a word you've used infrequently didn't have the *exact* definition you thought it had all these years. Yet, happily, saying "I'm a (implied social) gadfly" wasn't entirely incorrect in all contexts I've ever used it in.

You perform better if you think you're multitasking—even if you’re not ow.ly/k5l330mEnpn ow.ly/k5l330mEnpn
