@ramsey The best part is that as I was typing it, I thought it was a Python joke, and then I realized it was even better.
@ramsey Obviously just bump the major version number and advertise unicode support.
@ramsey But how cool is it to think you could be walking home to listen to the new cassette that is sitting right next to an iPhone in your pocket.
@ramsey @coates @Ocramius @grhmc @wimgtr I don't know what the practical implications of web3 are (maybe no one does yet?) but I do expect a lot of VCs to lose their money before we figure out out.
@ramsey @grhmc @Ocramius @wimgtr @coates I'm not saying Google has done no wrong, I just think it makes perfect sense why lots of sites work best in Chrome if you set aside idealism. I think it's awful for the web, and a lot of it is a catastrophe, but that's why I work with people who respect idealism and Good Work.
@ramsey @grhmc @Ocramius @wimgtr @coates They have done and continue to do a lot that is terrible for the web, but from a frontend perspective, Chrome is arguably a dream. It is cutting edge in terms of new features and it controls a huge majority on desktop and half of all mobile.
@ramsey @grhmc @Ocramius @wimgtr @coates They built projects like Dart, Angular and Web Components to give frontend devs tools they wanted (for better or worse). And their APIs and services were huge during Web 2.0 and continue to be extremely valuable, especially Google Fonts.
@ramsey @grhmc @Ocramius @wimgtr @coates I think a big factor is that Chrome has been courting frontend developers aggressively for over a decade. They advanced built in browser dev tools in a major way. ...
@ramsey @AnalogWalrus @jacqueswoodcock @seldaek Pittsburgh's largest healthcare system is UPMC, which is a group of hospitals, a network of providers, and a health insurance company. Controversially, they operate as a nonprofit, but they aggressively pursue profits which are used to force competing systems out of the market.
@ramsey This is outlandish even without the "which he believes" part, which essentially opens it up to literally any action at all.
@ramsey @coates @jperras @preinheimer Lifelong Pompous Tortoise
@ramsey @jperras @coates @preinheimer Let's party tonight.
@ramsey @facultyco @shiflett @chrismerritt @coates @realdougwilson @xdesro @sldistin Thank you for being a friend!
@ramsey @Hersheys @MarsGlobal Fucking chocolate? Can we as a species not manage to keep atrocities out of anything good? There are people who have billions of dollars and we can't manage to have chocolate without child slaves? I'm honestly at a loss.
@ramsey I collect vinyl records. It can be an expensive hobby, but I've found it to be a relaxing way to slow down and enjoy music with intention again.
@ramsey Happy birthday my friend! Hope this year is your best yet.
@ramsey Me not knowing how to properly make an animated GIF display on Twitter might undermine the joke I was making with the GIF.
@ramsey Thanks Ben!
@ramsey If your room was the only one that that was visible from, you could definitely say "Trump is obstructing just us." As it stands, you'll have to settle for "Trump is obstructing justice," which is true, but less pertinent to your situation.
@coates @grhmc @railto @ramsey @AmbassadorAwsum @jperras I don't think people should stop trying to do better than XML, but I do think they need to try a lot harder than YAML.
@ramsey I'm putting my money on the Gavin Belson Signature Box 3.
@ramsey @nateabele @CaseySoftware Nobodies like a slave child from Tatooine?
@grmpyprogrammer @datawench @ramsey I don't mind Slack for work (though I'm no longer on a team that uses it), but I cannot stand it for things like Meetup groups or open source projects. They don't even pretend to want to serve those use cases, and better options have existed for decades. Probably conferences too.
@ramsey Watch it, buddy. 🐧
@ramsey Was asking myself the same thing at almost exactly the same time.
Happy Birthday, @ramsey. I hope this year brings you all sorts of joy and good fortune, and that some of that good fortune includes hanging out with me some time!
@ramsey Thanks man! I completely agree!
@ramsey "Mr Trump, could you rant about nonsense for about three minutes please?"
@ramsey IMO, Google's account organization as a whole is deeply flawed. I like services designed around one identity with multiple roles.
@ramsey Now I just use a regular Gmail address with mail forwarding set up by my registrar (Google). At least it works.
@ramsey I've begun moving all of my stuff out of Google Apps accounts. I would have paid, but it's clear feature parity will never exist.
@ramsey Had the same problem with a kid in Australia. I just posted something stupid on his Tumblr and changed the password.
@ramsey Noooooooope.
@ramsey @grmpyprogrammer I know you're just missing the j in json, but I like reading it as "You can set this in your composer, son!"
@ramsey Such a good time. I'm still proud of what we did, and only sad that we didn't pull it together for another year.
@phishy @ramsey I tend to agree with that now because that is where time has already been spent. Not sure it was the right path though.
@phishy @ramsey I honestly feel that way about Gulp/Grunt vs Make. Sadly, working within the Unix paradigm seems like a low priority.
RT @ramsey: Six years ago, @jmccree gave a presentation at @AtlantaPHP entitled “Apache and PHP: BFFs.” I miss you, Jeff. http://t.co/O6uv…
@ramsey I read that like "Mark your calendars for cheaper skin cream!"
@ramsey I assume Obama will have that wrapped up by the end of the year. Along with climate change and human aging.
@ramsey Bullshit.
RT @ramsey: Four years ago today at #phpcomcon, @lornajane presents as @rawrthetiger looks on. http://t.co/8MQEyToCTy
@ramsey I'm not sure if abandoning and failing a mission are the same, but the @internetarchive sure is great. I hope @Google is a donor.
@ramsey Thanks man. So far, so good.
@ramsey Puerto Rico would have been funnier.
@ramsey @funkatron Watch it. At your own risk.
@ramsey Haha. Nope. Have you seen Too Many Cooks?
@ramsey Doesn't a file you haven't touched for a while go into read-only archive mode or something? Maybe look for that? Create a copy?
RT @ramsey: Getting back into gear after an inspiring week at @brooklynbeta. This is going to be an awesome week!
@ramsey Yikes. Just let us know when you make it in. Safe travels man.
@ramsey Yes. Exactly that bad.
@ramsey Agreed. I had no idea before I saw a piece by him about addiction, but he's now a name I will always click through to read more for.
@ramsey Bummer! Just yesterday I was fascinated to (carefully) feel the strength of the bamboo at the @PghZoo. /cc @NashvilleZoo
Home from a great weekend at @PyTennessee with @ramsey, @funkatron, @pmjones, @jacques_thekit, @kennethreitz, @whit537, @epochblue and more.
@jacques_thekit @ramsey @funkatron @pmjones @CalEvans I insist you do.
@ramsey @funkatron @pmjones @CalEvans That works. Looking forward to seeing everyone!
@pmjones @ramsey I'm going to be in town for PyTennessee next weekend. Would love to get a drink and catch up.
@ramsey @byeliad Ahhh, crap. Maybe I'll come. Let me look into carpooling and room sharing.
@ramsey @a I'll miss you both. The best part of @brooklynbeta is always the people that are there, and you both pulled the average upward.
@ramsey Yeah, but I think they can only do so by acquittal, not by conviction.
@ramsey Could have given you a bottle of Weyerbacher Riserva 2012 if you had been at Brooklyn Beta. /cc @untappd
Happy Birthday, @ramsey. Keep up the good work!
@ramsey Not bad so far. Thanks for the birthday wishes!

@elazar No, Fantasy Football is sports for nerds. /cc @funkatron @ramsey @preinheimer @coates @mwop @shiflett @arzoum @ElizabethN
@ramsey My deepest condolences to your wife and family, and my deepest gratitude to Jenna for her service.
@ramsey That could only have happened to you.
RT @ramsey: The last episode of #newgirl was probably their best episode yet. They're finally hitting their stride.
@ramsey Happy birthday pal! Hope you are scaling back to no more than a 12 hour work day to celebrate!
@ramsey Oh, is that why you still have the Stop SOPA banner up? To hide your lumberjack beard from the world?
@funkatron Honestly, I bet you could get anything you were really serious about funded on Kickstarter. /cc @ramsey @jperras
@ramsey Like a boss. I know, I know. I'm a little late to respond to this.
@ramsey Is that from the State of the Union?
@ramsey Glad I'm not the only one that loves that show.
@ramsey Thanks! 1/4 life down, only 3/4 to go!
@chartjes SHHHHHH! If no one mentions it, we don't have to feel guilty. /cc @ramsey
@ramsey I agree, too dangerous during an election year for something so unimportant (politically). boingboing.net/2012/01/10/loc… /cc @elazar @a
@ramsey Sounds more like Pei Wait to me!
@ramsey There is always Google+ Messenger. I've been using it a lot with friends, and it has been great so far. /cc @a, @elblinkin, @h
@ramsey Here he is climbing inside of a house of bees! Eww! He's eating the larva.
@ramsey Whoa. My excitement to go back there next year just doubled. /cc @flyingsaucernas
@ramsey Lost $50K in value? I *knew* you shouldn't have given @jmccree your address. Seriously though, sorry to hear that. Good luck.
@ramsey I have a strong suspicion of photoshopping for some of those.
@ramsey Now I'll know who to turn to if I need motivation to finish my dinner at Brooklyn Beta.
I'm with @shiflett on this one. No need to let someone else simplify my profile URL on G+. /cc @ramsey @wezfurlong
@ramsey Maybe if it were on SciFi. I give it one season on NBC.
@ramsey But seriously, congratulations.
@ramsey Way to rain on IBMs parade.
@weaverryan Wait a minute! Just what is wrong with Detroit (my hometown)? Please answer in 140 characters or less. /cc @ramsey
@ramsey When TN legislates about technology, I think the appropriate response is to chuckle and disregard.
@mapalong I seem to be seeing the same issue that @ramsey mentioned yesterday. No places showing on my map. Occurred after adding contacts.
@ramsey To be fair though, with a clear victory in congress for this bill, we need to hold our reps accountable. @shiflett @nateabele
@ramsey Start with good beer, transition to honky tonk? /cc @a @marcuswhitney @mfacenet
@ramsey This isn't actually something you are debating, right?
@the_simplist Can't wait. /cc @ramsey
Happy Birthday, @ramsey!
Thanks to @ElizabethN, @ramsey and @shiflett for the twitter-birthday wishes yesterday!
RT @ramsey: Gen in Brooklyn has ruined me for any sushi place in Nashville.
Dear @ramsey, Please confirm to someone that you made it somewhere safe last night.
@ramsey @ElizabethN should I meet you guys?
@ScottMac, @preinheimer, @ramsey, @coates, @lisamusing, @ElizabethN What is everyone up to today?
I had an effin' h of a night with @ramsey, @ElizabethN, @jperras, @ScottMac, @nateabele, @the_simplist, @dcian and a few others last night.
@ramsey So are we supposed to retweet the statement we agree with?
@ramsey We ridicule people out of town for spelling write as right instead.
@davidcoallier, @ramsey Well, I guess I'm just a dumb-ass dodo bird. /cc @weierophinney
@ramsey My sentiments exactly. Only angrier. With so many F-words.
@ramsey Same thing happened to me two days ago. It just eventually went away.
@ramsey You can take a bus from China to Anchorage?
@ramsey I was being sincere.
@ramsey I love it when you liveblog your evening. :-)
@ramsey Maybe twelth porter is a suggestion, like "after your twelth porter, it's time to leave."
@ramsey Uh oh. You would have been the one I would have asked such a question.
@ramsey Or Field Hockey and Air Hockey?
@ramsey I hate that... I always remember the very moment I press enter.
@ramsey Sweet photoshop job.
@ramsey Some FACEBOOK work?!
@ramsey Oh no... don't be one of those guys that does the .@reply... You're soooo much better than that.
@ramsey Invite me, and let the fun begin!
@ramsey If you are getting Grimaldi's tomorrow, I might be able to join you guys. My flight leaves at 2pm. Let me know when you are going.
@ElizabethN Wild Ginger sounds like @ramsey's archnemesis.
@ramsey I had fun chatting with you guys tonight too, however brief it was. Let's do it again when OS X and Flash get their shit together.
@ramsey I do a lot of that too... My peak was 10 in a single day.
@ramsey I've been following your updates for a while... When do we get to see the interesting side of you? :-)
@ramsey It looks like it is time to apply for your DNKYPNCH license plate. http://bit.ly/wydqy
@ramsey Don't you have an Apple store nearby?
@ramsey I hope it's just one guy that gets two parking spots. That would totally make it almost worth it.
Ooh, quick, steal @ramsey's session! #phptek #tek09 #garlicgonewild
OH @ramsey "This is NOT a sexual dysfunction." #garlicgonewild #tek09 #phptek
I guess I should also tweet that I'm at dinner with @a, @Shiflett, @ramsey and @coates.
@ramsey you're close enough to MI,I doubt you'd be the only one.
@ramsey The question is, do you respond to it? I hope so.
@ramsey fair enough. But maybe planet should implement some heuristics like @stanv2 suggested, since it CAN change, even if it shouldn't.
@ramsey You're okay. Really, now that I'm considering it, Planet-PHP should know to ignore old posts. Who do I hate for that?
@ramsey's greatest hits today on the planet.
@ramsey Why would they do that when they've got you?
@ramsey Regarding your missing followers the other day... I'm wondering if Twitter did some spammer housekeeping.
@ramsey The Steven King novel? That started off slow, but got better iirc.
@ramsey I prefer brownies.
@ramsey Oh, re-tweet. I should learn my twitter lingo *before* I make a fool of myself.
@ramsey You're developing something for Android? Do tell.
@ramsey Email client selection is clearly a least-evil situation. I think they all suck, that's how the man keeps us down.
@ramsey He's hanging out with me, how could he not have a blast?
