This looks like an embarrassing mistake. If someone were to try to “tank” Twitter, it wouldn’t really make sense to do this on purpose.

It’s not a matter of intelligence, these people just have different priorities.
Pretty much the hardware version of && false
it happened again with the Intuitive Machines lander that landed on the moon last week
The article just says that the account is suspended, there is no official statement from Twitter an no indication that they suspended the account on purpose. The most likely reason is that the account was mass reported by trolls and got suspended automatically.
Nobody knows if and when programming will be automated in a meaningful way. But once we have the tech to do it, we can automate pretty much all work. So I think this will not be a problem for programmers until it’s a problem for everyone.
I think it’s reasonable to not short stocks. I just find it a bit weird to see people confidently proclaim that a company is overvalued, but than not shorting the stock, which would be the rational thing to do.
It’s hard to tell how much a platform is worth, arguably the value of Twitter was 44B, since someone was willing to pay that.
The good news is, if you’re really certain that Reddit is overvalued, you’ll soon be able to short it and get rich if you end up being right!
I don’t think the number of bots matters much, there are much more real people on Twitter than on Mastodon. It’s not an issue for Twitter because they already are the platform where everyone else is. I’m optimistic about Mastodon, it already has the better UX and the better business model and I think it will slowly attract more users over time and eventually reach the relevance that Twitter had at its peak.
When the Apple car is released, the EU will invent 350 kW DC fast charging via USB-C 🙏
The difficult thing is gaining users, not writing the code.
I’ve been on Mastodon for over a year and I never experienced anything that could be classified as a technical glitch. From a tech / UI perspective it feels very polished to me.
I guess the only exception would be that old posts are sometimes missing on profiles from different servers.
Games companies expanded like crazy due to low interest rates and high demand for games during the pandemic. Now interest rates are going up and people go outside again.
The GPD Win 4 runs Steam OS. It has a faster processor than the Steam Deck, more storage, higher resolution, etc.
I agree with your point on biodiversity and yes, climate change poses an existential threat to individual people, but not to civilization as a whole.
No, I’m certain that human civilization would survive.
I don’t think this kind of catastrophizing helps. Climate change certainly doesn’t “threaten the fundamental existence of organized human society”. Sure, we should do more about it and future generations would be better off if we were to lessen the impact, but it is not an existential threat.
I’ve definitely had both. Sometimes the hosts of the actual podcast read an ad using their own voices. In this case everyone gets the same audio file and crowdsourcing the timestamps would work.
For dynamically inserted ads, it will be more complicated. Maybe a system like content id that has a library of known ads and detects them in the audio.
I wonder if something like sponsor block is feasible for podcasts 🤔
Sure, but they also need to be on a platform that people actually use. I agree that there are lots of reasons against Discord, but my point is, they didn’t choose Discord because of a lack of intelligence.
