If you see this, why?
This is a rhetorical question. Do not answer, unfollow me instead. Stop enabling this platform to exist. There are better communities run by less unhinged individuals.
This will be my last tweet. Find me at bsky.app/profile/polemic.nz. Bye 👋
Looks like the Great Migration winner is going to be Bluesky (for me, at least). You'll be able to find me at bsky.app/profile/polemic.nz – this account will go private sooner or later.
This is "the internet". X is "the internet" with extra steps.

The context has changed a little, but as Twitter unceremoniously breaks 3rd party apps and integrations, this evergreen tweet just ages like fine wine.
I see @Twitter is announcing rebuilt APIs!
New theory of software engineering. The “age” of a software developer generation is 3 years, or the amount of time required for a new batch of suckers for Twitter's API strategy.
