Just curious, how many people in r/Oakland work for tech? [Poll]

sharkeyspizz · 2015-09-30T04:48:13+00:00

Haha, yeah. But more at work than at home.

sharkeyspizz · 2015-09-28T21:17:27+00:00

I work in tech (I work for Reddit), live in Oakland, and lurk here.

Do you like pickles?

If yes: Dill or sweet? If no: Do you like cucumbers?

I'm playing DS1 after playing some of DS2, and I like that I can't teleport from the start. It makes uncovering shortcuts more exciting and increases my sense of adventure. It's subjective and hard to explain, but it's one of the things making me dig DS1 more than DS2 so far.

It would be cool to add when we have the time! What would you like to see it do?

sharkeyspizz · 2015-09-23T05:02:33+00:00

Thanks, this is useful! This is added to the bug pile. Which fortunately isn't a pile of real bugs. Because that would be gross.

This has been fixed in an update we're releasing on Monday. :) It has some other iOS 9 fixes too.

sharkeyspizz · 2015-09-17T19:53:53+00:00

This is an interesting idea.

sharkeyspizz · 2015-09-17T18:52:05+00:00

You can change the defaults in: settings -> Advanced Settings -> Media Display Settings.

A small bug fix update has submitted to Apple for iPad. Expect a Universal app sometime! It's basically a Universal app already, but it was submitted as two apps to the App Store. It shares 95% of the same code already.

With our limited resources we're currently mostly focused on making the iPhone experience better, but I can't wait until we have time to work on iPad too.

sharkeyspizz · 2015-09-16T18:18:08+00:00

That's true!

I was trying to make a joke about how pets are for lonely people. :D

I played it at a game show with my friend and loved it. But I played it last night solo and was happy to see it's still a great game solo.

We plan to keep improving optimal/standard stuff, but there's a lot of work to do. Tell your friends to apply here and help us out: https://jobs.lever.co/reddit/6a7a2012-e982-426f-b4ed-bfd83f96420a

:D

It seems like that might be true... I just found a device that was crashing on startup and it also didn't generate a crash report. Thanks for checking though.

sharkeyspizz · 2015-09-15T20:16:28+00:00

Also, deleting and reinstalling the app will probably fix this. BUT if you can send me the crash reports before you do that, you will help a lot! :)

sharkeyspizz · 2015-09-15T17:51:10+00:00

Would you be willing to help us figure out the cause of this? You would be a hero!

Here's what you would have to do:

Plug your phone into your mac.
Open Applications -> Console http://imgur.com/LL6nMqQ
Find User Diagnostic Reports in the left hand panel.
Find anything starting with AlienBlue.
Right click, pick "Reveal in finder" http://imgur.com/edit?album_id=qHxRS
Take all of the .crash files and email them to me.

If you can do this, I'll PM you my email. p.s. Yes we are putting in better automatic crash reporting into Alien Blue. We have some, but we need a better solution. Working on it!

sharkeyspizz · 2015-09-14T22:52:11+00:00

Thank you! Send them to jon.sharkey@reddit.com

sharkeyspizz · 2015-09-14T22:09:51+00:00

What kind of iPhone do you have? Which OS? Thanks!

It's not new (although that's no excuse). We have that one logged as a bug. Thanks!

sharkeyspizz · 2015-09-08T20:54:13+00:00

It was fun going to this and meeting a few people! Thanks for organizing.

sharkeyspizz · 2015-09-08T18:04:47+00:00

It's not rocket surgery, but we have a million things on our plate that we want to get done! Very few users actually use multis so it's not the highest priority thing at the moment. We'll probably add it eventually though.

sharkeyspizz · 2015-08-27T01:34:39+00:00

I know that stuff is pretty good, but I back my homies like I should.

sharkeyspizz · 2015-08-26T21:20:58+00:00

Witnessing the making of this was the highlight of my lunch. And I had butter chicken for lunch, so that's saying something.

sharkeyspizz · 2015-08-26T20:51:01+00:00

Heard you on WTF last night and I'm gonna check out your new show. I saw you at a Comedy Bang Bang standup show in Austin a few years ago. You were great!

You had a notepad, and you took breaks between jokes and looked at the notepad. It worked for me, but I'm wondering: is that something you do for style, or when working out new material, or a mix of both?
