I got tired of Spam calls so I did a thing: https://t.co/XA07OXCr1h

Generate demand letters for telemarketers quickly. Combine with this thread: https://t.co/reQkoJlG8h and start raking in money from spam callers!

@githubstatus You say this yet every push/pull times on on SSH still...

[Eric Harrison @darth_m8]

@andrewjhumphrey ok, I need that recipe. Looks amazing mate!

[Eric Harrison @darth_m8]

Had 3 appointments for @ZiplyFiber install and each time being told there is nothing in the hub. Brand new neighborhood where there are people waiting but they can't seem to get their act together. Makes me wonder if this is common, anyone with experience?

[Eric Harrison @darth_m8]

@ReboundMD People answer and take your details then never get a call back. I have called 4 times in the last week and never do I get a call back. No other way to schedule or contact you either. Please help.

[Eric Harrison @darth_m8]

Is it just me or is @github up and down right now. Some commands work, then stop, then work again.

From now on any company that calls people resources no longer have c(e,t,…)o’s. They will be Chief <thing> Resource.

@samwe11er We only give people we like Aussie nicknames.

@andrewwils0n @Gemfury I am convinced no one works @Gemfury . It just runs and if shit breaks good luck.

[Eric Harrison @darth_m8]

@Gemfury Status page says up but we are unable to bundle in any of our env's. Error fetching any meta data.

@bariweiss People didn't necessarily believe the glossed over line of crap that was being spewed, it was just easier to turn the other cheek when faced with a decent middle class life.

[Eric Harrison @darth_m8]

@bariweiss I believe people were more pacified until being shown that a more peaceful rebuke does nothing. Being shown time and time again that the dollar or power is more important than our humanity led to us no longer accepting, not just being fed BS, but why we were fed the BS.

I have never had a casino question me for dropping 10k at the baccarat table to make sure I knew how to play. I know so little about baccarat that I only spelled it write because of autocorrect. #wallstreetbets #SEC

@bguthrie @sdqali The problem we see is with "these days" are cyclic. Server side > client > server > client. Rinse and repeat. Something that can do both and is simple to start is important. Then carve out pieces as you understand traffic, performance and the customer.

[Eric Harrison @darth_m8]

@bguthrie Rails. Don't let better get in the way of perfection. I find it hard to answer the "quick POC" with anything else. Build modular w/ clear contracts then u can pull it apart easily later and use what makes more sense.

[Eric Harrison @darth_m8]

@sanjazakovska This is absolutely the way I hope everyone tests everything. I think how the dev reacts comes down to how good of a dev they are. Teach QA the "right way" or learn from QA. Give me the later any day.
