This tweet is going viral from a user who created their account in June 2020. In that same month, they posted a “prediction” claiming the COVID pandemic would end in 2023 and that Hantavirus would emerge in 2026.
And this is how these ‘SCAMS’ work:
Someone creates an X account, sets it to private, and posts hundreds of different predictions with every possible virus name and scenario imaginable. Then, once one event vaguely lines up with reality, they delete all the other failed predictions and leave only the “correct” one visible.
People do the exact same thing with predictions about the Pope dying, celebrity deaths, wars, and other major events.
You’re welcome.

@CJHandmer I need to tell my story myself and highlight lessons that I learned along the way that would be useful to others

Imagine spending two years researching and writing an authorized biography on one of the most singular technology and business figures in history and still having so little curiosity and insight.
Imagine thinking that the best Elon could contribute to government is to register his opinion that DoD procurement sucks. Everyone knows that!
We have so little from the past, so little insight into the why and how of the people who built the world we have inherited. The best is detailed first person technical memoirs, such as those by Leslie Groves or Kelly Johnson, but even then. It's not much to work with.
In 100 years we'll have a few bios of Elon and a million pieces of clickbait and, at the current rate, not a single usable "how to" for anyone interested in attempting to replicate the SpaceX/Tesla production function. Despite the fact that effective large scale technical management is on the critical path for civilization.
It drives me crazy.

American's Book Club @WalterIsaacson on Elon Musk: "It's a shame because had he gone into government and focused on what he's good at...He could have changed the government for good, but instead...he started, you know, let's get rid of this part of USAID and firing people."

@signalapp How do they wanna control the chat if they can’t even control their sky.

We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe.

Ok, things can still change substantially but this is the standing right now:
Simion 40.16%
Crin Antonescu 21.17%
Nicușor Dan 19.32%
Victor Ponta 14.37%
Elena Lasconi 2.62%
Very little of the diaspora has been counted yet (mostly Simion voters) and there are still a lot of votes from the big cities to be counted (mostly Dan voters)

@zerocam_app there is a difference in camera behavior when it comes to close range between mono and zerocam. Mono switches into macro mode and zero doesn’t. Is it on purpose?
