It's okay in life to not be polarized and take sides on things. Both can be shady, both can be great, and both can be mediocre. For your own "between the lines" reading start at 90. Remember this is Twitter legal making their

They both are frauds. Twitter has been fudging for years. Elon being disingenuous about the entire deal. Twitter is arguing in their case “even though we had no reason to, we were still providing your team with everything and all data” whil

Does anyone here actually believe Twitter doesn’t know this and have exact metrics down to a science? Or those stock options and gains too big to have any real morals?

The bigger story (if you can get past the juicy Elon-a-drama)… is Twitter stinks. You can smell the <insert_elon_poop_emoji> in their ad program a mile away and it’s finally free game to call out. I remember buying Facebook ads once a

Eh, I think he’s a believer. I like Jack. He dreams big and is pretty inspirational to wild ideas. You are high if you are reading this and think he’s not upset with where Twitter landed.

I disagree but glad I saw this. I think as these edge runtime things get more feature rich, it's going to pay off to be all-in on one that does it perfectly exactly optimized with an easy pathway vs expecting third party packages to fi

Full stack for Edge just makes sense to be both server, client, and the software that connects it. Deno will have this with some amazing edge render perfection figured out if you go all-in. Vercel has Next + Svelte. Then Cloudflare has &quo

Hey something about this comment just seemed a bit over the top negative/angry and didn’t sit right with me. Hope you remember not to take all these small frustrations too seriously in life. Wishing you well and sending positive vibes.

Wild. Technically is that legal?

Are we all going to pretend Twitter's consumer product is not in desperate need of reworking? It's failing hard to users and on the business side. The decision makes sense... This is extremely personal matter, beyond the Elon hate

This would be some pretty funny semantics... but, however it works, message is the same: Transparency for how these work - Search results - Comment Order - Timeline Order - Trends - Human vs code Personalization in general. Big gigantic “wh

by WORMS_EAT_WORMS 4y ago
Probably right but I think trying to be transparent is better than not trying at all. Gesture carries weight to the users too. Not sure any big company has tried this before. I could be wrong, but either way looking forward to it / FWI

Algo Literacy is just some crappy half-baked term I made up on the spot. It guess it is like Media Literacy where a person is able to contextualize the info they read about in a bigger picture sense. The second someone — especially a kid —

Whoever you are, whatever your politics and positions are, you have to admit and appreciate the humor in the saying: “it’s a private company, they can do what they want”. Full 180 and probably shouldn’t use an argument you don’t believe in

Look how fast you escalated this: > People are saying that Elon is forcing his numerous lovers to get abortions. Yes, this is harmful to Elon’s “lovers” and at their expense (not yours, not his). Yes, this is deranged. Yes, people can su

Eh -- it's totally derangement. Protesting a cause at an innocent persons expense is immature. It also can escalate into real violence.

He's definitely going to burn a ton of existing employees (basically kick them out), and then incentivize new ones with aggressive packages. It sucks and I wouldn't wish it on my worse enemy. It does make sense though since the mi

That's pretty hilarious, but I think saying offensive things (and offending people at their expense) to own Elon really is some derangement. I am assuming this is a joke. I don't get why people are so worked up about this. If you

Between an S-Corp structure and having an i401k... definitely awesome for taxes. Nothing really competes for contractors. I'd take the advice here of what dictates a "reasonable salary" with grain of salt however. $54k is not

Honestly, this just depends - depends on who your audience is and what your service is. No one likes spammy and cheesy emails but can be super effective and a company's biggest conversion medium.
