Meta should create a Twitter clone and release it just for the community. No ads, all good will, maybe even do the public utility thing. Earn some karma.

Works like this. If you ping me with an URGENT THING, I will respond promptly. I may also ask for clarification. Your incredible slow response to these questions means it’s not an URGENT THING.

Speaking of things I think were mistakes, can we talk about the seeking pure OOP & DRY? Our industry is littered with hasty abstractions & drive for "perfect" designs Nothing freaks me out more than talking to a team of "enterprise architects" trying to build shared components

New video: Using Fonts in Next.js! Learn about the new @​next/font module in v13, which helps you automatically self-host any font (for improved privacy) and prevent layout shift (automatically generating fallback fonts).

Respect this, but not at the costs currently being spent on this type of rapid iterating. People use twitter for critical communications (like in war zones), maybe more testing and research will pay off.

Please note that Twitter will do lots of dumb things in coming months. We will keep what works & change what doesn’t.

Scoop: all of Musk’s companies use MS Teams for comms, where new channels are private by default. When software engineers from Tesla, Boring and SpaceX came in to Twitter a week ago, they created Slack channels to communicate amongst themselves. Several channels were public.
