"Breaking - Twitter database leaks for free with 235,000,000 records.

As I anticipated yesterday, the database was circulating heavily and is now leaked.

The database contains 235,000,000 unique records of Twitter users and their email addresses and will unfortunately lead to a lot of hacking, targeted phishing, and doxxing.

This is one of the most significant leaks I've seen."

Gerrymandered voting district maps like this one in Texas should not exist. Democrats could have kept the House with five more midterm wins. Shamelessly gerrymandered redistricting accounted for all but one. dallasnews.com/news/politics/2

“With 2 ER physicians as parents, none of my 4 children will ever play tackle football. I said what I said. And I live in Texas where they’re in full pads by age 7.”

"I once noticed a park on google maps with a racist slur as a placename, so I changed it back to it's real name. (It's easy to do) Had to do it a few times, over a couple of weeks, until the other person gave up.

Just got an update from google maps: three years later, it's been viewed 500,000 times. That's 500,000 people who didn't have to see a slur, when they were looking for a park.

And that's another example of anti-racism"

Never forget where you came from, because that’s probably where you left your phone.

This post is a pretty good one to post this end of the year note about #crypto I reckon too.

During 2022 Bitcoin consumed 161 TWh of electricity in total, exceeding a country such as Sweden.

Related CO2 emissions were ~90 Mt; again negating the entire global net savings from EVs.

Look, if a core Bitcoin developer's can get their whole wallet emptied out unrecoverably on them, and that developer's immediate reflex is to start calling a centralized authority for help, it's time to stop pretending this entire cryptocurrency exercise is ever going to work reliably.
