BIG FLUFFY DOG posted:I’m so sad Elon took Twitter private because the best barometer for how much he’s sucking is not available to us just vibes $TSLA is still up, and $ARKK is very heavy TSLA and private twitter shares - yes twitter still has multiple owners. I don't know what percent of Twitter this fund owns but of their publicly traded stocks 10% is in Tesla it's their top ticker.

I think what you're looking at as the shorthand is the variable (var) declaration, but that variable conains the result of the string of arguments from different sources, which may also include other variables declared elsewhere (but you have no idea where). I am probably wrong but I'm just posting to be explained where I'm wrong. Sweaty IT Nerd posted:The parts that are gibberish could be better names. What? That's industry shorthand for "Small Variable Bash Read Tweet for Medium Drum n Bass". Doctor Butts fucked around with this message at 19:40 on Nov 4, 2022 |

Harminoff posted:If he is saying that each email is unique, then isn't what he means is that each one had different spaces throughout the email, therefore being able to identify it by seeing where the double spaces are? Also, they're not Twitter employees any more and it was a personal e-mail that was sent to them rather than to their corporate e-mail. So even if they could find someone "leaking" the e-mail, so loving what? Next time, don't illegally fire people, and do so publicly, over their private email.

ben shapino posted:kind of yeah. Ah, ok, so it's pointlessly obscure to the extent that even the person who wrote it is likely to be confused if they come back to it after a few months? For full disclosure, my only experience actually using code was when I was a wee tiny child trying to transcribe simple games written in BASIC, which I remember as being completely obscure and arbitrary.

Sweaty IT Nerd posted:I got banned for saying honky but I am still getting alerts. Elon demonstrating that he isn't remotely the talented engineer type he bills himself as with this action moreso than any of his other stupid bullshit. Pressuring out/firing good (or at least familiar with the system) engineers that probably had fuckall to do with business decisions you didn't like as a way to appeal to the angry reactionaries really just shows that he's not just a poo poo businessman; he's got no concept what development is like. Like, Twitter's DevOps team wasn't banning people for being bigoted dickheads. Like, I don't love all the business decisions/policies my employer has, but I'm not gonna fire DevOps over it if I became CEO tomorrow. They didn't make the decisions; they just kept the servers on.

hemale in pain posted:someone said this a few days ago but chuds don't actually want a platform to talk to chuds. they want a platform to 'piss off the libs' and if elon scares off all the sane people then why would the racist loons use twitter? yeah this is why no one uses all those right wing (or left wing) social media sites. theres two types of twitter users. people who dont care about politics/culture war poo poo and those who do. the ones who dont care about it will just use whatever site is more popular, because they want to see as much naruto fanart as possible or whatever the ones who do care about it will use whatever site is more popular, because they dont want a group of likeminded people, they want to engage in the culture war. thats why they care about it. this is true regardless of political alignment, even if the outcome is different. broadly generalizing, rightwingers want someone with 12 followers to call them an idiot so they can rail about how theyre being cancelled. leftwingers want to find someone with 12 followers who has a dumb opinion on trans people so they can point out how its dumb. one side enjoys feeling persecuted, the other side likes feeling morally and intellectually correct. neither impulse can really be fed if you just go somewhere where everyone agrees with you.

The only people left on twitter who like Elon are only placated by firing more twitter employees. I'm sure Elon's objective and thoughtful leadership won't be influence in any way.
