rast1234··on Everyone Has Email. Nobody Uses It Right
I always felt like using email in a form of inbox and folders is wrong because for me 99% of emails (and sms) is one-sided and from same bunch of senders. Newsletters, receipts, confirmations, ads, etc. Yet, when i tried to find an email client that works like modern messengers or android sms reader, i didn't find any popular free app that gets it.

thanks! this makes sense
rast1234··on RFC 3092 – Etymology of “Foo” (2001)
> It has been plausibly suggested that "foobar" spread among early computer engineers partly because of FUBAR and partly because "foo bar" parses in electronics techspeak as an inverted foo signal.

Can anyone educate me what "inverted foo signal" means here, in connection to electronics?

As Tech/Community Lead i manage a loose community of about 50 .NET developers from different departments, implementing internal tools, creating space for knowledge sharing and enabling horizontal cooperation.

Love writing docs, articles and talks. One of these articles is in Google top for query “перцентили для чайников” (percentiles for dummies).
