It’s somehow only been days between “print your code for Lone to review” to mass firings and the cancel culture style complaints. It’s a hell of a speed run he’s doing.

Hey are you guys hardcore coders? Could you dig in and find where they do the shadowbanning?

I have an image of an increasingly irritated Elongated demanding to be shown stuff that doesn’t exist. “Show me the shadow ban function”, “show me the right wing talking point suppression algo”. Getting increasingly frustrated at people saying it doesn’t exist, it’s just cooked brained conspiracy theories and then firing those people.

And why do I always see people dunking on me right under my tweets? Turn that function off too!

The only way Alex Jones line-in-the-sand makes sense to me is if Nole is loving someone who expressed strong opinions about him platforming Jones again. Sure he’s acting like it’s his decision and stealing his ex’s dead infant story but given the people he replies to and has given accounts back to, I just don’t see Alex Jones being a problem for him.

He’s surrounded by sycophants and rear end-kissers who either wouldn’t say anything against him or he wouldn’t care if they did but if someone said they would no longer tolerate his cold clammy touch in bed, maybe that stopped it.

Apparently the new conspiracy theory is that people like Baker, who worked for the FBI, are still "active" agents despite quitting and were planted in social media companies. Anyway, to the tinfoil hat people, this is a smoking gun of FBI interference. poo poo is crazy.

This is because in movies three-letter-agency people never really retire, that’s the level of thinking going on with these people.

There are tools to check if you're shadow banned or reply deboosted, etc.

Musk's own pet-reinstated accounts are currently shadowbanned. I suppose Elon should step down!







I never knew about that but just today I searched for “Loomer” and the suggestion / autocomplete thing didn’t show me anything but as soon as I hit search she was the top hit.

I know they always say not to touch the poop but loomer has open DMs… I spent far too long wondering if I could long con her like the CAIR thing but I’m not smart or committed enough, so I just sent goatse.

How elon tweaked the metrics.

With several high profile celebrity accounts exiting and not wanting a stampede for the door Elon decides unbanning people to increase users/activity is the way to go.

“Look how many new users are tweeting” Elon is quoted as saying after unbanning notable racists and nazis. He neglects mention new users are counted as those not having tweeted in the past year.

“Hate speech impressions are down” claimed Elon, once again neglecting to mention the metric used to measure such things was changed: **** is not hate, black people use with each other all the time.

Okay yeah it's back, just got broken because of the amazing engineering decisions by their chief engineer



I was pretty appalled by the removal and I'm glad to see it's back.

I bet it was ‘yellow lines’ to Musk, so he told them to drop it, then everything after has been lies to cover for his stupidity.

He’s tweeting “false” after they checked it, after they reported on it, after Ella Irwin confirmed it, and after he rushed some poor engineer to restore it on xmas eve. Just pretending none of those things ever happened… he’s loving trump with a sharpie drawing lines on the hurricane map to prove he didn’t mispeak.

Reuters posted:

After publication of the story, Twitter head of trust and safety Ella Irwin confirmed the removal and called it temporary.

Twitter was "fixing relevance, optimizing the size of the message prompts and correcting outdated prompts," Irwin said in an email to Reuters. "We know they are useful and our intent was not to have them down permanently."

About 15 hours after the initial report, Musk, who did not initially respond to requests for comment, tweeted "False, it is still there." In response to criticism by Twitter users, he also tweeted "Twitter doesn't prevent suicide."

I currently work maybe actually like 10 hours a week in my fulltime job. I mostly just play Total War: Warhammer 3, interspersed with some emailing and teamsmeetings. This is the best kind of job and I highly recommend it

Some weeks 10 hours is enough to get my job done and I catch up on my reading, forums, games. Other times I’ve got competing urgent priorities that make for long days on long days.

When it first started happening I had a lot of guilt and would seek out work or make work for myself but now I’m wise enough to know to keep my head down and the work will eventually catch up with me again. Although I still do get that little bit of guilt sometimes but I just push it down.

I haven’t bothered to look at what was released because I figure people smarter than me will, and will call out anything good, but it’s kind of telling if the code is missing the portion that applies/adjusts the weightings - Presumedly that’s where they made the post Super Bowl adjustment, and the post post Super Bowl adjustment after he got embarrassed by the articles saying “every tweet in for you is now elon”.

code:
author_is_elon = true
   tweet_weighting = tweet_weighting * 1000
However, that was the part of the algo where it seemed like scammers would analyse for ways to exploit so maybe it makes sense; but this is the elon thread and I prefer to think it was removed to hide the promote elon and promote super users stuff we’ve been hearing about.
