I GOT THE DOMAIN! I FINALLY GOT IT!!!!!!!!!!1 🥳🎉

Paint​.NET is now at https://t.co/ZJTUII4bVG!

Well, it will be just as soon as I push all the buttons to migrate content and set up redirects from getpaint​.net etc. For now it's just a "hey go here" redirect page.

@Apple and @AppleSupport is absolute trash. An old account was hacked that I dont use, and they have no recourse for me to prevent that account from being used for nefarious purposes. What horse shit.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Good question

[Shawn Rakowski @Shwany]

@SumitM_X Depends on the requirements of the dashboard, but I'd weigh using graphql to compose up data from the services along with a caching strat. But there is so much "it depends" here. For a 1 sprint limit you're looking at taking out tech debt anyways.

Rest in peace @ScottAdamsSays. You'll be missed more than you know 😭

Played around with Veo 3.1 this last weekend and had so much fun I started a web series on YouTube called "Melvin's Dungeon". Episodes are 1 minute long and take inspiration from series like The Office, The Guild, and Code Monkeys. Check it out! https://t.co/Amy2oojgky

@Mojang and @Microsoft should release a Minecraft "Box" like the SNES Classic that's fairly portable and only runs Minecraft with up to 4 players... then sit back and watch the money roll in.

[Shawn Rakowski @Shwany]

@Bizmonger Yeesh, where you headed bud?

[Shawn Rakowski @Shwany]

Confirmed. We live in a simulation.

[Shawn Rakowski @Shwany]

At long last... I've bet on this election to confirm or refute the idea of the simulation. I noticed this fact some time ago. Is this a wink, a prophecy, from the simulation or just a coincidence?

[Shawn Rakowski @Shwany]

Beautiful morning for a 1/2 Marathon!! @Bizmonger

[Shawn Rakowski @Shwany]

@ScottAdamsSays Perfect.

[Shawn Rakowski @Shwany]

@TotherAlistair No closing brace at the end of Main?

[Shawn Rakowski @Shwany]

@Dorizzdt What patterns are you having success with to make you feel this way about that one?

[Shawn Rakowski @Shwany]

@Dorizzdt It's a solution to some problems... organizing your application code into commands feels way cleaner to me than spreading it around controllers and services. Of course, depending on the size of the app it definitely could feel like a lot of work for little benefit...

@LeagueOfLegends it took me a really long time to figure out what this actually means. Please considering upgrading the help text :)

@emil_priver I work mostly with typed languages, but I realized a few years ago that types are just a form of software test. You can get by without them by ramping up testing in other layers.
