@tommislav @Kapten_Stoffe Vad har du köpt?

På samma sätt som Twitter klarar sig ”bra” utan 75% av sin personal så funderade jag på vad som skulle hända om Stockholms stad drog bort allt underhåll och personal från Skolplattformen. Läs nedan en tråd om vad som faktiskt pågår varje månad i Skolplattformen🧵

[Addy Osmani @addyosmani]

Be careful with legacy code :)

[Stephan Hövelbrinks @talecrafter]

Has there ever been a moment in the history of programming where someone didn't care for the build errors and preferred to run the last successful build?

[Oskar Stålberg @OskSta]

Towncaper is indeed coming to Quest and Pico!

Quite probably on October 6th

[Double Fine Productions @DoubleFine]

This week. (At least the Double Fine stuff!)

[Rohith Sreedharan @Rohithaditya]

Am extremely sorry, I wasn't knowing that would be tagging a 400k members, Extremely sorry for the spam from whole heartedly, I Apologize to all the team including @EpicGames and @github , never expected this would happen, thanks for notifying me! I promise it won't happen again

[Martin Vilcans @vilcans]

Got reminded of this classic article from a discussion at work today. Just as relevant today if you replace the buzzwords of 20 years ago with the ones today. https://t.co/Yk936mrGiD

Stripe, 2011. I decided to assign a custom ringtone to PagerDuty. Chose the iPhone's duck sound. Many (many) problems and pages followed. Years later, walking through park, I heard a soft quack. Shivered involuntarily, pulse quickened.

And that's how I ruined ducks for myself.

[Pixel Joint @pixeljoint]

The latest official Pixel Joint isometric collab "ISOrd&ISOrcery" has just ended after a record 4 months!
The final image can be seen here: https://t.co/kRIUDqYVme
Thanks to everyone who participated in this collab!

Oh, c'mon, guys. You're doing graphics for the freakin' Olympics, and you can't get your numbers aligned? How does something this embarrassing happen at this level? Maybe the software stinks? Use tabular figures, and turn off kerning. That's it. @NBCSports @NBCSportsPR

[Christian Landgren 🦋 @Landgren]

Här görs avtalet om från det upphandlade fastprisavtalet till ett ”gör vad ni vill” avtal.

”Samt att lägga diskussioner om skadestånd och viten åt sidan”. 🙈

Jag förstår verkligen hur situationen måste varit innan detta avtal men lösningen borde varit: ta om upphandlingen.

[Casey Muratori @cmuratori]

I miss Ron Gilbert games. If I was rich I'd just make a fund that all it did was bankroll whatever adventure game he wants to make, for as long as he had any inclination to make them...

[Jonathan Blow @Jonathan_Blow]

I think I'm a good programmer, then I go do something that is way more complicated and messy than what is required, and I don't figure that out until 4 years later, when it's obvious.

This happens all the time.

[Öppna skolplattformen @oppnaskolplatt]

2013 upphandlades Skolplattformen med krav att det skulle finnas ett dokumenterat API med SDK. Den dokumentationen begärde vi ut i december. Staden skyllde på sekretess men i förra veckan visar det sig att det inte finns någon dokumentation. De bluffade mao. 1/3

[Mr F @guycalledfrank]

Ah, perfect. Software plugins are no longer welcome on the asset store? 😅
Sorry, I won't write a lightmapper in C#...

[Eric Chahi @EricChahi]

What a day! This morning I received the French Order of Merit from the government for my contribution to video game culture in the last 37 years. I hope to continue again for the next 20 years!
I'm very honored to received it from the renowned computer scientist Marie-Paule Cani.

@tommislav Super Bobby world is a true classic :)
