This could be one of the needlessly confusing articles I've seen yet.
- al_borland 2y agoIs the world going to have to agree on a new generic variable/placeholder name, just because of Twitter... I think X on its own should never be Twitter, it should always be referred to as x.com to eliminate any ambiguity.
- foobazgt 2y agoIn CS, foo, bar, and baz are those metasyntactic variables.
- marcosdumay 2y ago> it should always be referred to as x.com I vote on "the website previously known as Twitter".
- TeMPOraL 2y agoHow about just "X Twitter", as in "ex Twitter"?

- chuckadams 2y agoI'm tickled that "Xitter" is gaining traction. Use the Chinese pronunciation of X.
- 98Windows 2y agoHow about TWPKAT? It looks a bit like twat
- crabmusket 2y ago"How can we get a 10y improvement here?"
- nevermore24 2y agoYes, I read the 30 other posts about it, too.
