May also be Elon Musk probing the market interest for a new phone. He has hinted at potentially launching a new phone. In my opinion it may be too expensive to develop a new phone, but an Android with a Tesla or Twitter skin, and an alterna

Last week Twitter was supposed to break in a couple of days. Now it will have regulatory problems any time soon. I'll be interested when Twitter has actual issues instead of crazy conspiracy theory of the day about the future problems

To me federation sounds like a nightmare of politics between different instances. Those politics getting in the way of content creators and their followers seem to make everything hard to navigate. I am much more thrilled about protocols wh

You could also argue how much is Elon Musk really an old school industrialist when many of his companies are very intertwined with the government. Tesla selling regulatory credits to other automakers, SpaceX with goverment contracts, ... So

I have the opposite experience. I haven't heard tech people talk about any hype new thing in years, but heard many non-tech people get into Crypto to try to get rich or tax evasion. A couple of years ago I was hearing sometimes hype ab

I guess the part about the media always doing hit pieces on tech companies was not always true after all. Maybe crypto is considered finance rather than tech, or maybe being a certain political party donor compensates for the being a tech c

I think Twitter has two big killer features: - Get quick press releases (from the real press, but also from other sources) - Be able to, let's call it politely, "interact" with politians and celebrities. If too many celebriti

Many young people had the hopes of maybe getting rich through crypto when all other avenues to a comfortable life that were available to boomers had disappeared. Now this will be a bucket of cold water to those hopes.
