@comcastcares I need to downgrade my plan to Internet only, I haven't watched cable TV in 10 years, and have been a cable modem customer for 20 years. Xfinity chat is not helpful on this matter.

SAVE ME @elonmusk from Comcast! You're my only hope! 🚀#Starlink #localmonopoly

For a friend: A young family is a more important startup than a tech startup. Awesome humans count a lot more than awesome software. ;)

@ViNull UML is way too specific, I prefer AML: Abstract Modeling language.

@A_Robson a local Optima *would* save you $ on delivery fees, but then again, everyone knows Toyota's manf process is more lean than Kia's.

CIO asks CEO "What happens if we invest in developing people & they leave us?" CEO: 'What happens if we don't and they stay?"

Used to be that making a phone call messed up your Internet connection, now with VoIP, using the Internet messes up your phone call. Ironic.

@ploeh It's the antipattern of designing a fx that steals the only chance to subclass domain classes; in EF it was the EntityObject class

[Troy DeMonbreun @troydemonbreun]

@ploeh It's not about ABCs, it's about a framework requiring you to subclass their base class to get functionality of the framework

[Troy DeMonbreun @troydemonbreun]

@ploeh that reminds me of the EF "have your entities extend this base class". That would be the "All Your Base Belong To Us" anti-pattern.

@Scobleizer Thanks for the follow -- had to do a double take to see if it wasn't some fake account like the "i-before-e" Scobliezer ;-)

@googlereader e.g.: Items with "free" are starred automatically. Colors variable, config @ folder or feed level, subject & body parse a plus

[Troy DeMonbreun @troydemonbreun]

@googlereader New Feature: Item Highlight By Keywords (RegEx a plus). e.g.: Items with "chrome" in the subject show a yellow highlight...
