One of my sons’ friends found me on twitter and he likes to mock me for being “twitter famous” pretty much every time he comes over the play with the boys. No matter how much I tell him I’m not. He insists on referring to me as “Matt Stratton of Twitter” constantly.

people have this idea that being a niche internet microcelebrity means that we must think we're actually famous when in fact this has almost no affect on our real lives and mostly just makes some IRL interactions awkward

For those who don't know, that's my inside tech joke. Naive developers love to talk about how they could build Twitter in a weekend. It has become a meme. If this whole thing wasn't horrific, it would actually be hilarious in tech circles.

Ah, that old gatekeeping chestnut that's also wholly irrelevant.

People are starting to say Elon Musk isn't actually a real engineer. But he definitely said "I don't know why people think Twitter is so complicated. I could fix it in like a weekend." And then proceeded to fuck everything up. That's exactly like an engineer.

One of the benefits of the #Fediverse is I can use the system I prefer to post and you can follow and interact with any #ActivityPub system you prefer. Your choice of, say, a photo sharing platform doesn't dictate that I have to sign up too. It's like RSS you can reply to.

To clarify: no not all confs pay but they should at the very least cover travel & accommodation for speakers, and look after them. Seems like some don’t even do that. If a conf isn’t offering you any kind of compensation for the literal money you spend to get there, don’t do it.

And this is his fault. He failed to properly manage the transition by figuring out who knew what, mapping out coverage, and making sure there was time and motivation to hand everything off. So he is eager to fuck over these people to cover up his incompetence.

The most obvious thing here is that he is planning to fuck over people he just got done fucking over. He just helped put these people out on the street in a recession. Now he wants to bring them back, get something out of them, and then fire them AGAIN.
