Wooo, look at this totally "not racist" thing people are using AI for now: https://twitter.com/MaxKennerly/status/1569635559223558145 Another wonderful use for technology! Jesus, it's weird that the 80s cyberpunk writers weren't somehow weren't pessimistic enough about what a tech dystopia future would actually be like.

Freakazoid_ posted:I think twitter is just unique enough that any attempt to move from it will require the next platform to function almost exactly the same. Honestly you could say on a technical level it functionally pretty similar too facebook wall posts, just with less features and a word limit. Sure people use it differently but it's just people posting and people commenting on posts, with stuff organised by search/tags rather than threads or whatever. It's main popularity seems to just be because it was really simple, and back in the day it was the easiest to phone post from.

Panfilo posted:So what is Twitter's fate with Elon Musk at the helm? A lot of reactionaries are celebrating this transaction, but will it really go the way they think it is? Yeah Guardian is reporting there is already been an up tick of racial slurs and Holocaust stuff on twitter, with people apparently testing the waters of what's going to be allowed. But they also note if it gets bad, EU might look to start regulating all social media more. https://www.theguardian.com/business/live/2022/oct/28/elon-musk-bought-twitter-natwest-profits-economy-inflation-business-live He's sunk a bit of money into this so I doubt he'd purposely try and sink it, but loving it up by trying to monetizes it to hell and seeing everyone leave definitely seems a distinct possibility. Just montetizising blue ticks stuff might, as anyone who's built up a significant following has the most to lose by moving, but yeah for a lot of people moving from one social media to another isn't the biggest deal. Particularly if a whole bunch of people start moving at once. Which they will if it either becomes too nazi troll infested, or they have to enter their credit card details.

Vegetable posted:Honestly I’d hate to be in such an unstable situation as an employee, but it’s pretty clear that Twitter, of all the large tech companies, most needs a kick up its rear end. Looking at all this from the outside is pretty fascinating. Does it? There's literally dozens of social media companies barely hanging on. Suddenly charging for a, lets be honest, pretty minimal service, that used to free? Particularly when that service seems like it's about to become a lot worse as looks like they're going to be scaling down even the small amount of moderation they had. Like Twitter fills a niche for some business and what not, but in such a minimal way, it's pretty easy to see people move on from it pretty quick. Twitter's a large'ish social media company that seems to make around billion a year for not doing very much. Feel like by changing everything so rapidly they're really killing the goose that lazy the golden egg here.

Realistic I don't see Twitter going bankrupt for at least another two year at the earliest. Now in that two years it may and probably will stumble along like a drunken toddler, hemorrhaging money everywhere, but just with how much money was put into it and Musk not being the only investor, I can see more money shoveled into the garbage fire, if only to save face. But yeah 100% would not want to be someone working there at that time.

So what's the odds of offices actually re-opening on Nov 21'st. Also be fun to watch twitter crumble over the next couple of days. I wonder how many people elons still letting have any sort of access to the code, or is he gonna be the only one way, just sitting back as idiot king, with tens of thousands of unattended errors bleeping away in the background. Oh by the by, when does the world cup start? before than?

Kwyndig posted:But yeah, something as big as the blue bird isn't going to crash immediately when left without a stock of engineers. It's going to fall apart gradually like a decrepit house. Like more posts will either see the fail whale or just not post at all. Retrieving tweets will result in more "tweet not found" errors leading people to believe that their posts are deleted. In I believe the elon thread someone link to a post something from one of the main software engineers on the backend who had left, where they said basically Twitter at the moment had been set up for a lot of the standard failures -sever suddenly doing odd stuff or whatever-, and do a lot of automatic troubleshooting, and rerouting of traffic to other parts that are working. That's meant to be a very simple tool just to keep thing running while people have enough time to actually have a good look at what happened. Side effect though even drastically short staffed Tweeter has enough good automation to keep the lights on for quite a while. It's gonna be the gradually rot that broad troubleshooting isn't designed to check on that will cause all the issue. I mean unless something really bad happens. End of the day highly complex system, no one really knows 100% for sure, can only make best guesses.

BiggerBoat posted:One thing tech has done to really bother me at work is making to it to where at least half my day is moving work through spreadsheets, editing job orders, making notes and messaging and emailing people all the time. All of this stuff is supposed to streamline the process but, over the last decade or so, it's become total overkill and seem inefficient. I mean I think this depends a lot on management and the type of work you're doing. Like I know there's some projects I've worked on that are like that, but others have been simple simple with just maybe a few emails and maybe a call through a normal day, and all work being done on documents in a share drive whole team had access too.

This has just never worked. Who the gently caress uses bing. Who even uses edge. Like edge is actually a pretty decent browsers, people still don't really uses it. There is a hell of a reputational hump that MS needs to get over and just dumping a new app out there as execs won't more money isn't going to do it. I mean thing thing is, in the business/IT world MS has a sort of semi decent reputation now. In gaming world with stuff like gamepass, same. Possibly some of it is as a lot of other IT companies have been seemingly getting worse, but MS does seem to have a pretty okay reputation in those groups now days. with online shopping and search and amongst average consumes, like what the hell is going to get people away from google and amazon? It's not even like they can outspend them as they both vaguely as big, but both have the advantage of specializing in those fields, and having far better reputations in them as well. Unless they have any other ideas for this other than a super generic platform this is just gonna be burning money.

Has there been any numbers on how many people have actually migrated to Mastodon. Seems another thing that's holding it back is every time musk does something particularly stupid and whole bunch of people decide to finally leave twitter, the larger Mastodon instances can't really handle the that large an amount of sign ups at once and everything apparently slows down to a crawl, which isn't exactly the best first impression for new users.

Look the easiest Solution for the "snow" problem is just remove the snow form the equation. Some sort of automated flame thrower on the front of the car should be able to do this reasonably acceptably for about the needed twenty of or so foot in front. Look honestly this is such a simple solution I'm not sure why it isn't already the standard!

Correct me if I'm wrong but don't most of the social media management peoples for brands and what not use third party apps to keep track of all that poo poo? I know that used to be the case like a decade ago not sure about now. If so I can imagine quite a few brands that were on the fence about staying on will just say gently caress it. I mean normally I'd say that would make a social media platform better, less brands, but I mean twitters circling the drain so much it's mostly just funny.

Main Paineframe posted:The state of the industry is such that upper management is pretty much desperate to come up with new ideas to pitch to investors, and they don't place a very high importance on how feasible those ideas are. Or if the ideas are actually any good or not. See ideas being pitched including the hot new tech of the day to solve problems that it's not good for. like selling banks on blockchain even though you know they're a bank and should already have know how to keep a bloody ledger. Big data solving everything was a popular one a couple of years ago I believe. I would imagine there is a whole bunch of pitches involving AI solving everything are probably happening at the moment.
