I disagree. I find it humorous and endering. Meatspace, to me, is a term that encapsulates the authenticity of being a blood and bone human being and all of the foibles that come with it. Cyberspace, at least so far as social media is conce

"Business" or "money sink"? Everything about this "boom" from 2012 on was, from a market perspective, about as artificial as you could get. At least the events leading up to the .COM and '08 crash there we

When dealing with particularly toxic people I find the exponential backoff to be an excellent strategy. In my case, I hate cutting people off because I know people can change. What I do to manage relationships is run a forgiving version of

Yep. Delegation is part of the job but you don't get to delegate consequential executive decisicions to something as capricious as an internet poll...

"Best thing Elon should have done was to focus only on the technical aspects of Twitter and let some more level-headed less-emotional people manage the editorial aspects." That didn't pan out too well either. https:/&#x

Wonderful! I've worked in the mental health field for years and when it comes to treating diseases like schiziphreina the go to model has been to give drugs to manage symptoms. There were a bunch of models for what _could_ be happening

For me, a lot of the value add comes from being able to open up files from a terminal, almost instantly, and make changes way quicker than I would through an IDE. It's also much faster when doing trivial and repetitive changes. If you&

If you have an Android device I'd recommend trying an app called "Vim Master". It's a very simple app and something you can play with during a break but if you can master the 'advanced' sections you will become

Musk himself tweeted that hate speech is free speech. The only catch was that it would be demonitized with reduced reach. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1593673339826212864 Evidentally that doesn't work

Turns out that strategy doesn't work so well when it's from a celebrity's account.

And a swastika could just be something posted by some ignorant man with a mental illness and no interest in advicating for violence yet it gets censored anyway. I don't have a problem with Twitter banning hate symbols but I have a mass

Let it be known. Elon Musk banned Kanye even though he didnt break the law. Elon Musk lied when he said he's a "free speech absolutist".

I can only speak for myself but I know the kind of person you're talking about. It's funny. I remember being young and being told not to do drugs to "escape reality". Escaping reality seems to be almost sacrosanct these
