The cost of being an oauth provider has to be negligible compared to the benefit of having users associate their account on your service with everything else they do. Like it's not even some high traffic, easily abusable thing. It's an entirely different stack.

I got a notification from a F2P game saying they confirmed that it would NOT break their login, but recommended disconnecting your account from Twitter anyway, just in case. What Musk is doing here is literally an anti-ad for Twitter that will drive more people away from the platform.

Neo Rasa posted:I'm not a computer person but API, Application Programming Interface, isn't this something you want as many people to have and use as possible to keep your stuff ubiquitous? No. You probably want to stay away from the specific technology here because otherwise your opinion makes a lot of sense. APIs aren't "please integrate with us for free". "API" is just a set of general interop (non)standards, pieces of which are used by a lot of things. In my industry it's how people send/receive phone calls and SMS, which are products we sell. We in fact do NOT want you to use our API for free as that is fraud and theft of services. Oxyclean posted:This will kill off a lot of gimmick accounts that repost memes, cute cat pictures, every single frame of Lord of the Rings, etc. and to that end, it's an incredibly boneheaded move because those kinds of "bots" almost certainly drive engagement with the app. He's still pissy about the elonjet account. This is part of his tantrum. And you're 100% correct that there will be/already is a screen scraping python library that will make the API 100% unnecessary for low volume accounts like this.

No way - Twitter's army of SREs and data scientists will quickly spot the traffic patterns and deploy mitigation measures. They probably have at least a few services dedicated to actively tracking and reporting this very threat.

What kind of bullshit con is this? I'm assuming the scam is like "Hey in these unstable times off the grid Futuro housing is ABOUT TO COME BACK AND EXPLODE GET IN ON THE GROUND FLOOR!!!" Like it's basically the sell our greeting cards door to door crap but for people with more money I guess and are meant to appeal to like, people who would normally just buy those prepper survival buckets or something? But at least with greeting cards those are a real physical thing, I know Futuro homes haven't been made in forever but aren't here only like a dozen that even still exist?

It looks like their business model is to sell those lovely buildings to people who will then GET RICH!!!! renting them out on Airbnb. E: Basically targeting rubes who heard “many people say” being a landlord on Airbnb was easy and risk free money, but don’t have the funding to buy real homes/units that people would actually want to rent (not to mention all the upkeep and maintenance needed).

OAuth isn't a part of the APIs that were mentioned in the tweets and there's been no other information about it released afaik. It may or may not be included because who the gently caress knows what Elon will do, but people are jumping to the conclusion that everything from oauth to embeds will be shut down, which isn't what they have said

I mean at this point when changes are being made with little notice and not really being explained it makes sense for devs to jump ship if they can. Why wait to wake up one day for things to suddenly not be working.

Twitter's API is what I would hold up as a gold standard of RESTful API design along with Facebook's. They were already rate limiting what you could do because you can't allow people to query billions of tweets nonstop without causing a huge compute bottleneck. Anything a bot can do, you can automate with a Selinium script in a browser though so I don't see how forcing people to pay for basic API service does besides increase your revenue (duh). Years ago at a hackathon, I remember the IBM Watson team showing off a sentiment gauge they hooked up to twitter where you could query a topic, have IBM Watson watch twitter in real time, and give you a 1 to 10 happiness scale about what people felt about the topic based on their tweets. Stuff like that is probably gonna get locked behind an API paywall. I can't really see twitter forcing a paywall in front of OAuth because you already have free options for that with google and facebook which the majority of internet users already have.

Yeah, anyone with a Twitter integration should be looking for an exit as soon as possible, I think for oauth you've got more than this week though. Musk likely doesn't know what oauth is or that it is separate

Because they already outsource the writing to their clerks (who they pick in large part to groom as the next generation of right wing judicial assholes) for cases where they don't want to personally tell the other side how hosed they are. I think we have a higher chance of Thomas or Alito just outright saying "gently caress you we answer to nobody" in an opinion than an AI doing it too.

ChatGPT would absolutely be an improvement over the SCOTUS, but that's not because ChatGPT is good, it's because the institution is so fundamentally bad that replacing it with nothing would be an improvement. Unfortunately the chatbot that replaced it would be trained on only the worst poo poo our lords and betters have ever put out.
