I mean I'm not a huge fan of California suburbs in general, but there were so many things wrong with that hotel... the elevators were down for a whole day, hot water went out one morning, the sheets had weird red stains, etc etc. I really should post a proper review.

I really hope IndieAuth takes off at some point and allows us to privately host our own decentralized and federated authentication.

What are the three features a programming language absolutely must have in order for you to use it?
No wrong answers! Go! -

- robust community support and adoption
- good impedance match with problem space
- excellent support tooling
note that none of those are about the BNF.
Exactly what I was looking for, thanks! -
@aaronpk Huh, that's a tough question. Functions and some kind of module-like construct as units of code reuse, and... I guess a syntax for comments?
It's easier for me to list features I think other people might consider mandatory that I don't think are critical, like objects, or loops, or Turing-completeness 😁
Or to list features I wish every language had but can't insist on, like type inference, sum types (aka "tagged unions"), and closures.

@aaronpk should be easy to script in it, should be easy to scale up and write OOP code in it, shouldn't be Objective C or Java.
What about ObjC and Java do you not like? -
@aaronpk Really good, human-readable documentation; open package management; a short time to first run without proprietary tooling.

Whoa, the plane that landed in front of us blew a tire on landing and delayed our takeoff by 20 minutes while they cleaned it up. ✈️

Ok that was fun, thanks for all the responses! Lots of great stuff in there.
Now take your favorite programming language and tell me the 3 things you most dislike about it.
No complaining about languages you don't use! -

There are now two Flash Forward copy-cats out there, both claiming to have invented a brand new genre. One of them is super well funded. The other is about to make $$ on a Kickstarter. Watching people who wouldn't give me the time of day praise these new shows as "innovative" truly makes me want to find a new career.
ugh that is the worst, I'm so sorry! -
Not sure where Apple is going with exclusive podcasts, but it’s probably nowhere good. By default I’m against any “podcast” that can’t play in multiple podcast apps because it erodes the openness of the ecosystem.

The perception that PHP is still a bad language.
The inconsistency of standard function parameters.
The lack of generics.
this is a very good tweet -

State of the Nabil, 2019 | nadreck.me (nadreck.me)"It’s worth noting, we may talk about “the Indie Web,” but it’s not a single project, so much as an amalgamation of various projects in various states, with lots of different personalities driving with different motivations."
