It’s weird when two women refer to each other as “dude”.

Sorry, but I don’t know that movie that shaped your childhood. [www.npr.org/2013/01/1…

No more #ADN clients for iPhone only. Only interested in ones with iPad equivalents. Note that I’m not saying universal apps, because developers should get paid, but I’m really looking iPad-first, iPhone second.

#Ruby confusion: #Rails does some form of magical auto-requiring that ignores the RUBYLIB environment variable. What the…‽

“Bread cooties”

There is no “The El” in #Chicago. It’s spelled “The L”.

Now this thing about the swipe direction on a post in #Felix being the opposite that of a certain other client drives me nuts.

Dang, #Felix’s reply behavior to a post with multiple mentions is awesome. Don’t ask whether to “Reply to All”, just include everybody, but select all IDs other than the first so that you can quickly remove them if you don’t want them. Nicely done.

sigh There does not appear to be an #ADN client in the #Amazon #Android app store, which is a pain for those of us who refuse to use #Google #Play.

Assuming you already know Ruby, MVC, databases, and Web stuff and just need to learn Rails, thumbs up for http://railsforzombies.org/

I’m interested in how long it will take for 50% of phones to be /used/ as smartphones. http://www.asymco.com/2013/01/04/when-will-smartphones-reach-saturation/ I’m thinking at least 5 more years. /cc @asymco

The version of ftplugin/ruby.vim in #Vim itself is from almost 3 years ago and completely borks the value of the «path» option due its use of a no-longer-supported feature of gems. If you use Vim and #Ruby, you really need to get current http://j.mp/TBmPI3

Create smart-playlist “last-played is not in the last 12 months” and put on shuffle. Instant “OMFSM, I completely forgot they ever did this” and “Where the hell did I first hear this?” and “Why don’t I listen to this more often?” and “Whaaaa‽‽‽”.

Not a fan of imagery for @themagazine cover. Plain text is what set it apart before. Keep it simple. #lessismore
