History making history: the first tweet ever posted from a Commodore VIC-20. The VIC-20 was my very first computer as a kid, and I’ve still got it around here somewhere. The Personal Computer Museum custom wrote the software to make this possible. The code must be pretty tight… the VIC-20 only had 3583 bytes of available RAM!

New Programming Jargon

I like these.

cameronmoll:

Bugfoot: A bug that isn’t reproducible and has been sighted by only one person.

Duck: A feature added for no other reason than to draw management attention and be removed, thus avoiding unnecessary changes in other aspects of the product.

Ghetto Code: A particularly inelegant and obviously suboptimal section of code that still meets the requirements.
