@antrod Twitter adds a stochasitc 1:many model that degrades to 1:1 to the more disciplined blog/RSS model. That seems strictly different. in reply to antrod #

@ingredientx Beware of the loss of traffic/convenience from being visible at the store for recruitment/sustainability of the group. in reply to ingredientx #

Is it just me, or does Twitter really need direct/built-in support for hashtags? #twitter #
@brettspiel True. Is #twitter heading for an acquisition implosion as they consume their field? They have a /hard/ CS problem WRT scaling. in reply to brettspiel #
@icheyne Not a Midnight Commander fan? in reply to icheyne #
@brettspiel #twitter /have/ to handle scaling, which is non-feature/product-building & HARD. They only working that prob, ignore rest now? in reply to brettspiel #
RT @neilhimself: So wrong, so wrong, so utterly, utterly wrong: http://bit.ly/HKfPE (And stupid and inconsiderate of cost/benefit ratios) #
(Pray, pray, pray for it to be true!) RT @nprpolitics: Is Consumer Confidence Creeping Back? http://tinyurl.com/blp8bu #

Bugger this for a game of soldiers! Do none of the URL shortening services work with FTP protocol URLs? #web #twitter #tinyurl #annoyed #
@icheyne Happy FVWM2 user here. I run bits of everything and anything as long as it is useful. in reply to icheyne #
@icheyne My normal world: ftp://kanga.nu/users/claw/screenshots/Desktop/JCL.Desktop.20.png Hopefully the tiny URL won’t bork it. #linux in reply to icheyne #
Tweetdeck doesn’t recognise FTP URLs as links. #tweetdeck #
@icheyne You’d think HTTP was the only Internet protocol. Stupid lazy. in reply to icheyne #
@icheyne blush in reply to icheyne #

@neilhimself The URL was truncated on your retweet of mcctheater. in reply to neilhimself #
@icheyne So long Sucker is evil? Damned right! In many ways Intrige is So Long Sucker rendered into more palatable boardgame form. #
@toddbert Yeah, it is a vague armwave at what might be a dreamy idea in an idealised world. in reply to toddbert #
@ingredientx Yep, that’s part of the common mythos of the game, substantiated by Nash et al. Tales abound of its use in cocktail parties. in reply to ingredientx #
RT @timoreilly: http://bit.ly/Et4MU Bkgd 4 piece on Vivek Kundra http://bit.ly/6LQTv We need Vivek. Don’t let him be hung out to dry. #

@ericries Req CTO present mult answers to probs and state cases for which each is right/wrong. Discourse makes education. CTO is educator. #
@ericries Also, CTO can’t scale unless his staff mindshare his intelligence. If he doesn’t discuss, doesn’t educate, can’t scale. in reply to ericries #
@ericries CTO trap of short-view optmse. Ask how could solve his scaling as eng prob? Has to see HE can solve prob & choose cost tradeoffs. in reply to ericries #
@andrew_chen You twit your good articles, why bother with RSS? in reply to andrew_chen #
@ericries 2nd thought: Ask CTO what is more important long-term than getting short-term answers right? When is it Okay to do it wrong? in reply to ericries #
@icheyne Can win Intrige without every backstabbing. Up to you how to play. I’m a big fan. in reply to icheyne #
