Twitterâs âFor Youâ absolutely KILLING IT with state of the art personalization. @elonmusk has done it again.

Everybody thinks "The Social Network" is the best movie about forming a new startup, but they are wrong. The best movie is "Ghostbusters".

I'm doing an experiment. On my computer, I am checking the latest tweets by people I follow. On my phone, I'm checking whether their most recent tweets are showing up in the "Following" column. I'm just getting started, but even in the first dozen cases, Twitter failed to show me

Thatâs why Tesla is right about banning remote work. I know a guy who claims to work for Tesla but also has a gig at a Telcom, at a freight company, does a side job digging holes, sells medical implants AND trades crypto. But he spends most of his time shitposting on twitter.

Muskâs lackeys spent their entire day in my mentions defending this absurd policy as just and wise only to have Musk abandon it in less than 12 hours

UPDATE: The tweets by @TwitterSupport this morning, announcing a new policy banning linking to competing websites, have been deleted.
The policy itself was deleted from Twitterâs website.

I donât know who needs to know this and I am shouting into the void, but downvotes are always bad for social software and there is even mathematical proof of it.

Since Pentiment came out, I've seen people attribute things to me that I did not do, erase me from things that I absolutely did do, and ignore large numbers of other devs who also did a huge amount of work. This is most notable with Fallout: New Vegas, so let's do this again: 1/8
