Subreddits have been quoted on twitter for ever.

My impression is that most of this thread have left twitter. Or have an account but aren't checking in.

The most annoying people in the world love to say there is no objective difference between good art and bad art. So I made a list
Painfully obvious that the first sentence is concocting an imaginary problem that only exists as a pretext to justify his tweeting out the list that he'd already written. Lame.

niedermeyer on bsky: "Just read this entire excerpt from the upcoming Walter Isaacson book on Elon Musk, and am gratified to report that no amount of friendly spin can keep him from coming across as an incredibly off-putting, unhealthy, vindictive weirdo. The punchline is that Elon couldn't get out of overpaying for Twitter by tens of billions of dollars so he made up for it by screwing Twitter execs out of $200m in severance and stock options and called it a W. You know, real Ben Franklin, Albert Einstein, Leonardo DaVinci shit. Good going, Walter."

That led Bankman-Fried to call Musk in May. โMy bullshit detector went off like red alert on a Geiger counter,โ Musk says. Bankman-Fried began talking rapidly, all about himself. โHe was talking like he was on speed or Adderall, a mile a minute,โ Musk says. โI thought he was supposed to be asking me questions about the deal, but he kept telling me the things he was doing. And I was thinking, โDude, calm down.โโ The feeling was mutual; Bankman-Fried thought Musk seemed nuts. The call lasted a half hour, and Bankman-Fried ended up neither investing nor rolling over his Twitter stock.

Gilded Age work week was six days, workdays were 12 hours, child labor was rampant and life expectancy under 60. I'd still prefer this era, bad as it is.
