This is why it's not fun to work on established products. You have unwritten contracts with your users and sometimes both sides are not aware of them until they are broken. Build new verticals under the same brand, that's how you kick off new greenfield products.

Did Twitter Blue tweet just cost Eli Lilly $LLY billions? Yes.

Eli Lilly stock isn't just tanking because of a satirical Tweet on Musk's hellscape, it's tanking because millions of people are asking why we have to pay for insulin, when it was made to be free. That's why other insulin stocks are falling too. Happy Disability Awareness Month

Has anyone published a blow-by-blow account yet of what was going on inside Twitter yesterday when the Eli Lilly (and other amazing impersonations) thing happened? I refuse to believe there's no-one inside anonymously talking to the press about it

So not only did @rem give all the #ffconf speakers a refurbished game boy, he wrote an ACTUAL GAME featuring all the speakers. It’s set in the Duke of Yorks Picturehouse, and I’m especially tickled as I’m employee of the month and I actually worked for Picturehouse for 6 years 😂

The early crypto skeptics deserve more credit. Not only did they call all of this, they did so in the face of constant shaming and harrassment. (Not to mention everyone pointing to the increasing value of their crypto wallets as evidence that they were wrong.)

If it's not that, it'll be an internal TLS cert expiring, and no-one knows where the CA key is kept.

Tweetdeck itself may work, but if it's communicating to Twitter endpoints over SSL, it's going to be useless once twitters SSLs expire.

Watching @elonmusk + Co take over Twitter is like watching a software engineering case study on how to destroy an already-fragile technical infrastructure and culture of a software-intensive business. Amazing that at some level his clumsy attempts are so basic.
