With a recent increase in the number of accounts suspended from the social media site, The Onion examines all the things that will get you permanently banned from Elon Musk’s Twitter. bit.ly/3UsAJOW

Any Twitter engineer being asked to certify compliance to a regulatory agency (such as the FTC) should seek independent (their own) legal advice before signing anything or making any statement to regulators. This is a bus you do NOT want to be thrown under.

probably my favorite bit of weirdness after all the twitter drama is people who are _still_ in twitter employees' @ replies asking to get verified

When people say ‘this upcoming economic downturn’ I can’t help but ask what people think has been going on for the past year at this point

The "return to office" mandate is likely an attempt to get more employees to quit so that he doesn't need to pay severance. It doesn't help productivity, profitability or morale.

So Musk sent his first Twitter email at 230 am, told his remaining ~4k staff they all must work in-office now full-time; the overall economic picture 'is dire;' that Twitter 'will not survive the upcoming economic downturn' unless the business becomes 50% subscription based...

this is literally so insane it’s like telling a random construction worker he’s also responsible for doing building code inspections like that’s not his job and u could get sued like WHAT is elon doing

Strong statement from FTC, following the security and privacy departures at Twitter: "We are tracking recent developments at Twitter with deep concern. No CEO or company is above the law, and companies must follow our consent decrees."

If you didn’t think people were bad at verifying information before, just wait until you see the social experiment that is Twitter Blue.

Kyle R1ttenh0use literally only has a fanbase coz he killed two people and got away with it and he just got verified on here but only coz he paid for Twitter Blue. And we can all see it. What a charisma-free, failed-to-get-into-his-chosen-college, oily brat.

Just in: starting today (Thursday) remote work is not an option at Twitter: all employees are expected to be 40 hours in the office. Only exceptions are for those physically unable to travel to an office or exceptions signed off by Elon. Why the sudden change? My take:

Well, not without tradeoffs. Adding GraalVM to the build chain is not a trouble free thing to do. It's nice that *technically* you can make Java perform in Lambda, but you'd only want to do it if you had to.
