How do we know this is really Twitter Support? 🤔 twitter.com/twittersupport…

We’re not currently putting an “Official” label on accounts but we are aggressively going after impersonation and deception.

Right now, someone, somewhere, is building a plugin that changes the color of the checkmark based on whether it's part of a Twitter Blue subscription or not.

so @fastly and @github have both made announcements about funding maintainers and open source projects today. excellent news. now as an industry we just need to 1000x the amounts committed and we'd start to make a significant dent on OSS sustainability.

“This user’s account is verified because they subscribe to Twitter Blue” is probably more shameful than a hexagon avatar I reckon

Musk right now casually walking through his grand payments vision for Twitter: Users could link their online bank account to Twitter, he says. Then the company will offer "extremely compelling money market account to get extremely high yield on your balance". Add debit cards etc

Matt Hancock on I’m a Celeb is a political move. He is reinventing himself after the appalling way he handled being a senior minister in the pandemic. He dehumanised the population, and now wants you to see him in a better light for his own career & gain. #ImACeleb

“Senior engineers?”

Corey Quinn (@QuinnyPig)Wed, 09 Nov 2022 19:20 GMT

Spreadsheets, JSON files, DNS zones, senior engineers; you can draw whatever semantic distinctions you’d like, but to me they’re all databases.

honestly he must have just paid $8 for Blue to get that checkmark. no way Musk would purchase this company, roll out an "Official" badge, and then not get it. has to be a fake account. he's not that much of an absolute uncooked potato.

Today's discovery: 1. # is a valid character in git branch names 2. Not every system URI-encodes strings before looking up git references on the web, e.g. via git REST APIs

Misty (@mistydemeo)Fri, 01 May 2020 23:00 +0000

Git branches are weird. You can put zalgo text in them after all (as numerous people suggested), or even entire Japanese sentences (since those rarely contain whitespace). (If you use zalgo text, be forewarned, Git might break in weird ways.)

With Twitter's change in ownership last week, I'm probably in the clear to talk about the most unethical thing I was asked to build while working at Twitter. 🧵

Steve Krenzel (@stevekrenzel)Mon, 07 Nov 2022 19:26 GMT

This is unfortunately not an anomaly. The most unethical thing I was asked to do was shortly after becoming head of Vine. I haven’t spoken publicly about this out of embarrassment and fear of retribution, but probably better overall for the universe to air out these mistakes…
