Programmers being bad at naming things isn’t very damning. Add to that this guy made a few 1000 enemies with inside info with his hamfisted management, it would be leaked to the press 5 minutes after he orders it.
Btw this class seems to be for spaces not tweets and a quick search for Ukraine in
TweetSafetyLabels in the same package turns up no results, really shoddy writing.
- WinstonSmith84 4y agoI noticed that too, but it's likely we are not seeing the whole code base. "the algorithm", despite being possibly at the heart of many "interesting" things, is likely just one out of many other "modules" of the Twitter platform. Also while it was just rumours so far, various well known Tweeter tweeting about this war have been complaining since last November that their tweets had suddenly much less engagements. This is just too much of a coincidence.
- awb 4y ago> Programmers being bad at naming things isn’t very damning You’re right. But Musk was hosting Twitter polls, posting memes and proposing territorial borders and conflict resolution that seemed to be much closer to the Russian view than the Ukrainian view. So you’re right that more info is needed, but Musk inserted himself into this topic in a way that raised a few eyebrows.
