we're trying to build an office 365 integration and the main problem currently is that nobody is quite sure what the difference between outlook in office 365, outlook.com and outlook in office.

I think the thing about me is I like programming but only when it's in something that should not be programmed, like dominoes, or a computer game, or javascript.

Is this a thing people like?Personally I find if I have too many things to do in one window it just confuses me — like already I have email, calendar, docs and reference all in the browser and all that happens is I keep swiping between desktops when I should be mousing to some tiny click target in the tab bar.I can only imagine that this would make the problem worse — now I have two multipurpose apps with functionality variously available in one, the other, or both.

integrate stack overflow and then we'll talk about staying in the IDE for more than six straight minutes.

ugh, just been pinged by the fifth opsgenie alert in three on-call rotations and all of them are nothinglike i'm not against being on call in principle but some firms use it to patch rush-jobs caused by shit management and we apparently use it to wake devs up for no reason for some kind of uptime theatre?well it can fuck off

I hate the word 'sync'. It splits the word halfway through a consonant — but if you spell it 'synch' it looks like 'cinch' because really, how often do you see 'cinch' written down. But then people write 'synced' and come on, can we not have the h in there?

@kungtotte @ignaloidas @sir Have I misunderstood how IRC works or is that like saying "so what if you lost your book, you can just read a different book"?

I have made a version of Minesweeper where if you're forced to guess you'll always be safe — but if you guess when you didn't have to you'll always hit a mine.https://github.andrewt.net/mines/

Since this did such numbers on birdsite:Five or so years ago I was working on the BBC's developer portal at https://developer.bbc.com and I was asked to replace the terrible fake code on the laptop screen in the stock photo. As an easter egg, if you click on the laptop screen then you can change it too.

@mmu_man @mibzman Oh, that would be a fun one. IIRC though, the banner isn't on most of the screens where stuff actually happens so I doubt it'd accomplish much.
