"My nephew's autistic, he spends all his time playing computer games." "I'm autistic too and..." "All the time. Doesn't spend time doing anything else." "Well perhaps..." "Doesn't want to spend any time with us." I can't IMAGINE why.

this is something that i didn't really know if i wanted to write or not, and also whether i should, whether my words are necessary. but i felt like it would be cathartic to put some words and thoughts out. i'd really appreciate all my cisgender friends and family having

Twitter published parts of its algorithm, but some developers said the code paints an incomplete picture.

Elon had no clue how "algorithm" works but promised to open-source it. In order to not look like a bellend he open-sourced whatever just to claim "see, I did it!".

No shit, sherlock. What’s not common is asking engineers to work on an “open source” repo which can only be used by a single, for-profit company.

👋 hi, coder here… been coding since I was 12. did an entire TED Talk on the topic. I know what I’m talking about when I trash Elon for trying to get free labor for a for-profit company under the guise of “transparency”

In the case of Twitter, it is pronounced "Open Sores".

Uber driver: “How long was your flight?” Me: “2.5 hours” Driver: “Only 2.5 hours? You look very tired” Me: “Yep, life beats ya down, man.” Also, can we stop we stop telling women they look tired? Maybe I don’t feel like a full face of makeup all the time.

I love the people replying and calling this “open source.” This isn’t a project that’s meant to be shared and used by others.

I don’t care? I never optimised anywhere - on Twitter, LinkedIn, my blog, newsletter - for how a supposed algorithm works. I’m sure growth hackers are delighted and rubbing their hands how to generate meaningless but viral content, but I could not care less about growth hacking.

Every day is April Fool's when you're neurodivergent and you're never quite certain if there was a hidden meaning in what someone else said so you just go "yeah" with a bit of a chuckle to make it seem like you understood and are chill

Amidst all the excitement around Twitter open sourcing its “algorithm,” one bit is easy to miss: they licensed it as AGPL. That means anyone else who uses it will have to open source their code too, …

There is a difference between open source and “make public”

Remember when Elon Musk publicly discriminated against a disabled worker and then had to apologize when it turned out firing the worker would cost 100 million dollars? Since then Elon’s been repeatedly making friendly replies to the guy and the guy has never responded.
