- mrintellectual 4y agoIt just seems unlikely that the algorithm would be open-sourced right after a deal for Twitter is agreed upon (but before it actually goes through). I've never seen a buyout of this scale done by an individual, but I imagine the SEC and several other parties will need to be involved. At the minimum, I would make a private Github repo first, add all relevant commits, and then make it public once there's actually content.
- hunterb123 4y agoSure it's fast but it seems the deal is done. A practical joke by an employee seems more unlikely than an official release. The engineer from the OSS team at Twitter linked to it and said "watch this space" https://twitter.com/willnorris/status/1518694675909013504 https://twitter.com/willnorris/status/1518694675909013504 Sure I guess it could be that engineer gearing up for a joke, but I think it's more likely that it's a real release.
