So you want to build an app (perhaps for a few client platforms) communicating with a backend over a (non-public) API?

@TipOfTheBanana Unlike Häagen-Dazs, Frusen Glädjé actually means something though (it’s Swedish and means Frozen Joý, what’s up with the diacritic?)!

Nothing I can do at my computer brings me such a warm and fuzzy feeling as bringing up a man page. Probably says more about my age than about the beauty of nroff typesetting though.

@rsms @pdotcv @linear @embeeargh There was this legendary professor at The Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm who would do this in all (?) his emails. (But then again, he would also put all curly brackets and semicolons in column 72 of his C source code.)

@niklas_a Not to mention almost everyone's skill of taking part in one!

I hate when people at work ask you what books you are reading for professional development. I am reading books to counteract the effects of being professionally developed. I am reading books that bring me back to being human.

@niklas_a Ah, those signs in Triangeln! One has to assume they're på förekommen anledning? The awful balloon incident of 2014 or something?

[Magnus Hult @hult]

@shak @gustaf Haha, yes indeed! I hope all is well with you, and holler if your travels ever take you towards Stockholm.

@KITKAT You should make this into a Charlie and the Chocolate Factory situation. Find a stolen KitKat and you’re invited to a tour of the Haxby Road production facility.

@ricardovice The editor/compiler/runtime were all the same thing back in my day (oh, and the answer is QBasic (or possibly even Superbasic on a Sinclair QL))

[Magnus Hult @hult]

@dnorberg @hemnet Omg

[Magnus Hult @hult]

Read the room, @hemnet!

[Magnus Hult @hult]

You're all arguing about taste when the thing that really matters is flavor.

[Magnus Hult @hult]

@rsms @brian_lovin Who wrote the tests in those cases?

[Magnus Hult @hult]

@bernhardsson @modal @Lux_Capital @Redpoint @AmplifyPartners 💪‼️

[Magnus Hult @hult]

@forssto And happy 10th anniversary (minus one day then I guess)! ❤️

[Magnus Hult @hult]

@forssto Haha, wow! (You could perhaps even argue I squabble?)
