Man, SQL is an idiosyncratic mess. Seems like there's a lot of opportunity for innovation in relational database application interface.

#vim tip: if you're writing #CoffeeScript or otherwise need to make your code harder to read on a per-file-type basis, you can change the indentation size for specific file types with this one-liner:
autocmd Filetype coffee setlocal ts=2 sts=2 sw=2

Just realized my phone autocorrected protip -> proto.
@awilfox @argumatronic he shouldn't have to apologize.
There is a difference between calling on somebody publicly and resolve a matter privately. Especially when it's about interpretation.
As much as you have the right to say what you want, I have the right to tell you, you're wrong about the joke.
@argumatronic @awilfox all I see is people getting offended by a joke...
I'm not saying that the position of women in the field is good, or that it shouldn't be defended and discussed. But the joke wasn't about that. Please people, stop pushing your agenda on jokes.
You want a discussion about women on the field and the rampant discrimination that goes with it, fine I'm more than happy to participate. But not here, not with this quote as base.
#battlefield1 proto: use the assault class with the Hellriegel primary weapon. More damage per second than most other weapons and no recoil, its basically an automatic sniper rifle. Plus the assault kit can easily solo a tank (anti-tank rockets, mines, and grenades). If you don't like the Hellriegel, take any shotgun for a 1 hit hill under 20 or 30 meters with a good rate of fire.
Never mind. The documentation exists on Google Code; apparently GC didn't shut down entirely, everything is just read-only. My difficulty was that the documentation linked into files in Google Code, but the links were all broken, so I assumed the documentation had been taken down.
Still casually trying to reverse engineer Mastodon. Apparently it implements the Salmon Protocol, but half of the documentation for SP is hosted on the now-defunct Google Code. I can't find mirrors or contact information. Anyone have any ideas?
Why is every other Battlefield 1 map Amiens? If I wanted to cage fight, I would play Call Of Duty.

I love vim, but in 30 years it still hasn't gotten word wrapping right.
Q. How do I link to a toot?
A. Right click the timestamp in the toot's header, and choose "Copy Link Location"
Am I misunderstanding, or does apt-get download and unpack sequentially?
It seems to download each dependency one by one and then unpack them one by one. Presumably it could be streaming several downloads at once, and once one finishes, it could be unpacked by the CPU while other downloads are in progress.

Can anyone give me information on the protocols #mastodon implements? What would it take to build a minimal alternative server? #mastodondev
