Is that a genuine Dilbert original, or a phony?

What makes you think it could not be original ?

Here, in US, we'll start getting rid of Pesky Laws like that in late January 2017.
At that time, the acceptable solution will become to use them as mattress filler for infant cribs.

I'm thinking of giving this a try but would welcome some recommendations if anyone else has used it. It has a nice clean UI and was developed by one of the Twitter founders, so has excellent integration with it. I'm thinking of using it instead of my CP blog (the one on your profile page). I've never really been satisfied with this, but on the other hand I don't want the overhead of a full blown blog either. Just somewhere I can post my short technical brain farts without incurring too much of my already precious spare time

Some of these could potentially be tips/tricks here at CP, but I suppose that would depend on how farty (or not) your brain farts are.

Twitter is currently loosing so much money that I don't give them another 5 years as a company. Maybe place your bet on something else.

Do you have any recommendations? I used to use Blogger, and whilst it's a great platform, I'm looking for something with less overhead. I don't want a full blown blog, just somewhere I can scribble my thoughts. Like Twitter but without the 140 character limit.

You could use the CP blog platform.

As I mentioned in my initial post, I already use the CP blog but don't find it a particularly good platform for blogging. The Medium.com platform looked a good fit as it has good Twitter integration and doesn't look overly complicated or incur too much overhead to get going with it.

...or another option is we work towards making the CodeProject blogs something you would find useful.
Do you have a wishlist?
(Matthew and I were talking about this exact topic over the weekend)

- In what form? Quick links? Embedding content?
- We're constantly working on that. Another update due this week
- We have something up our sleeves.

Links under your blog to share it across different social platforms would be useful. Maybe we should hold a straw poll and get a list of requirements from our readership

Just saw some parts form the Band of Brothers TV series... One thing got me is a drinking party organized on a base...
Is is still allowed to US solders to drink while on base?
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Have you seen Stripes? Better to keep them on base.

Alcoholic beverages are considered contraband, and always have been. In war time, though, officers tend to look the other way unless things get out of hand. It is also (and always has been) a court martial offense to be drunk on duty. In extreme circumstances, it can be considered treason.
