If Twitter is dying then I have just a few things to say first.
- You should read @seananmcguire's books
- Digital watches deserve to make a comeback
- @maro254 is an absolute legend
- Play more Baldur's Gate cards in your Commander decks you fools
- "Twitter? I barely knew 'er!"

See this is why it's frustrating when media types say more prominent stories about Trump's bad deeds are pointless as "everyone already knows all that, it won't change any minds" like here's some very online tech Twitter accounts just learning about the fake electors thing

Remember: a huge portion of our tax code expires next year. The main material impact of this election will be to set the terms of the extensions.
You have the choice to turn the dial towards "rich people have more money" or "poor people have more money" - choose the latter!

Ok people keep replying to posts of LLM mistakes with "it worked for me when I used slightly different words" but if you can't point out what mistake the original person made and how to always avoid it then it's just roulette isn't it. You want medical advice from a roulette?

So many awful people are like "this will enable me to chat up 500 prospective dates" or apply to 2000 jobs or create 1000 autogenerated recipe/reviews websites where it only works if all of the people you are doing it to remain stuck slogging through one at a time

Sooooo many of the AI use cases end with "me, a smart person, using AI to get one up on everyone else" as though that's just how it will work forever.

ALT An old Red Lobster ad, showing a fisherman on a pier amid a bounteous catch, standing under an old fashioned . He grins and brandishes a large lobster at a grinning family. The image has been modified to add four symbols of rapacious capitalism. There is a dancing Monopoly Rich Uncle Pennybags with a skull-like face, his cane replaced by a scythe. There is a stern, impatient, grey-haired business-man looming over a rooftop, staring at his watch impatiently. There is a portly, shouting man in a suit and tophat, lugging a money-bag. There is a man in a suit with a money-bag for a head.
