I miss written tutorials. I hate how every tutorial is a YouTube now. I don’t want to watch 15 minutes and forget to pay attention for the second that has the detail that I am missing or it just doesn’t show. Even short tutorials are 3 minutes when it could have been a ten second read. I want to skim a page and go directly to the point. Has writing really become that hard to do?

To understand Musk's renewed obsession with X and focus on financial services, you REALLY need to understand the X/Confinity merger that became PayPal.

And, particularly, the Peter Thiel-led coup that kicked Musk out as CEO/Chief Strategist.

Here's how that happened. 1/🧵 #history #technology

Pay $84/year for a chance to win thousands of dollars. This business model sounds familiar but I can’t quite put my finger on it? 🤔

I'm assuming that 403 years ago this person died very unexpectedly.

A damaging #tornado has impacted densely populated portions of the #Milan metro, specifically Cernusco sul Naviglio, #Lombardy, NW Italy about 2 hours ago.

Stop blaming strikes for economic damage. Strikes are a logical response to overreach and greed from corporations and the wealthy. If there is resulting economic damage, look to those who drove the workers to strike in the first instance.

Buenos días. Os dejo por aquí el homenaje de Jan a Ibáñez.

the people who kept telling us that movie piracy is a serious crime don't actually seem all that interested in paying people for making movies.

YES. DO IT DO IT DO IIIIIIIIIIT! #sagaftrastrong #wgastrong #unionize #Solidarity #unionizemarvel #cgi

This is REALLY important.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment and counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

Let that sink in. It costs less than accepting homelessness.

I can't get over how fractally bad a take this is. Like, aside from the obvious.

"Most fun product of the year" - it's a Twitter clone. That launched yesterday.

"Because their own elected officials…" - so basically if we accept the premise that this law is bad, it's cool to collectively blame all EU citizens for laws their leaders pass and mock them for any harm it causes them? This is coming from a *fucking American*?!

"Have fun in the library" - WHO DOESN'T WANT TO HANG OUT IN A LIBRARY?

"Their immense talent will no doubt be of great use elsewhere."

Yep.
