“@nichegamer Just another day in Elden Ring!”
“@PPathole @Twitter Twitter legal just called to complain that I violated their NDA by revealing the bot check sample size is 100! This actually happened.”

“Very important to fix your Twitter feed: 1. Tap home button. 2. Tap stars on upper right of screen. 3. Select “Latest tweets”. You are being manipulated by the algorithm in ways you don’t realize. Easy to switch back & forth to see the difference.”
“@TimRunsHisMouth 🤣🎯”
“@DBurkland Team is working the weekend to get 10.12 in limited release tomorrow. Then we evaluate, do a point update, and broaden the release. 10.12.2 is probably where we can expand to a safety score of 95+.”
“At least, that’s what the lib hivemind thinks haha”
“Whoever thought owning the libs would be cheap never tried to acquire a social media company!”
“The bots are angry at being counted 🤣”
“@PPathole @Twitter Any sensible random sampling process is fine. If many people independently get similar results for % of fake/spam/duplicate accounts, that will be telling. I picked 100 as the sample size number, because that is what Twitter uses to calculate <5% fake/spam/duplicate.”
“@fintwit_news @Twitter I relied upon the accuracy of Twitter’s public filings”
“@stevenmarkryan @teslaownersSV @Twitter Interesting”
“@teslaownersSV @Twitter If we collectively try to figure out the bot/duplicate user percentage, we can probably crowdsource a good answer”
“@teslaownersSV @Twitter Ignore first 1000 followers, then pick every 10th. I’m open to better ideas.”
“@coffeetabletsla @Twitter Pick any account with a lot of followers”
“To find out, my team will do a random sample of 100 followers of @twitter. I invite others to repeat the same process and see what they discover …”
“@BillyM2k The axiomatic error was that housing prices only go up. I don’t support predatory lending, but many of those lenders were severely wounded or didn’t survive. They dug their own graves – a lesson we should all take to heart, including me.”
“Still committed to acquisition”
“Twitter deal temporarily on hold pending details supporting calculation that spam/fake accounts do indeed represent less than 5% of users https://t.co/Y2t0QMuuyn https://www.reuters.com/technology/twitter-estimates-spam-fake-accounts-represent-less-than-5-users-filing-2022-05-02/”
“The straw war is emblematic of larger social issues”
“@Gfilche @Tesla It still needs more work imo, but we can probably widen the beta a little next month”
“@pmarca This is messed up”
“@JeffTutorials Seriously?”
“How did it even start?”
“@PPathole 💯”
“@teslaownersSV And tastes like cardboard!”
“The last straw was the last straw!”
“Stop the war on straws! https://t.co/aHv7uvm17D”
“@ScottAdamsSays @DawgGabriel But I do think that twitter should authenticate all real users and prioritize those replies above unauthenticated users”
“@ScottAdamsSays @DawgGabriel The drinking bleach hoax was a hoax https://t.co/bORNLRfzSX https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/jul/11/joe-biden/no-trump-didnt-tell-americans-infected-coronavirus/”
“Updated Starlink availability by region”
“@BillyM2k If Twitter can tell the difference between real and fake users, why does it allow these in our comments? https://t.co/0EuhTfaVfF”
“@lexfridman Exactly”
“@PPathole @BillyM2k Didn’t occur to founders of USA that people would live so long, so they put in age minimums (for wisdom), but not age maximums (for … 😴)”
“@BillyM2k And also younger than 8000 years old!”
“@TimRunsHisMouth 🤣🤣 💯”
“Biden’s mistake is that he thinks he was elected to transform the country, but actually everyone just wanted less drama”
“Even though I think a less divisive candidate would be better in 2024, I still think Trump should be restored to Twitter”
“Don’t Diss Information”
“@mazemoore Disconcerting …”
“@BillyM2k It has potential as a currency”
“@slashdot Overzealous DMCA is a plague on humanity”
“@slashdot Current copyright law in general goes absurdly far beyond protecting the original creator”
“@waitbutwhy The whole notion of being “left wing” or “right wing” is silly. Almost no one initially agrees with the semi-random collection of policies associated with each wing. They only support those policies *after* they join the left or right mind tribe.”
“@waitbutwhy Great thread”
“@jack Yeah”
