@Abstract_Alex Hey Alex, We are currently testing “Not interested” and aim to launch it this quarter. We’re also working through the next iterations of genres and favorites. Let’s chat more about your feedback. Will reach out

Roblox is testing burying the "Continue" sort, just like they did with Favorites. This is to make you play games the algorithm wants, instead of what you already play. This especially hurts because Roblox has no "Not Interested" button or way to hide things from your feed. Do you think this is healthy for the platform? I think user choice is important. #Roblox #RobloxDev

@PeilinYang Congrats on a great run

After 7.5 incredible years, I have resigned from Twitter/X this week. Twitter was always my dream job. Back in college, I was captured by two groundbreaking technologies: Google Wave and Twitter. While it was magical to see real-time updates on my screen from across the globe, Twitter’s profound impact on society truly amazed me. I witnessed passionate discussions on critical issues—conversations so fervent they ignited a spark within me. Even after Twitter’s ban in China, when platforms like 饭否 and Weibo stepped in (though not quite the same), I couldn’t help but feel that magnetic pull. (I even tried joining Weibo once, but that experiment didn’t quite work out!) After graduate school in the U.S., I joined Twitter—the only full-time offer (turned from my internship) I secured at the time. In retrospect, it felt destined. Twitter was not only my first job, but the only company where I’ve ever worked, and every single day was a chance to learn and grow. I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunities I had, the brilliant colleagues from whom I learned so much, and the projects we undertook that made a real impact to the users across the globe. I am especially proud of leading the new Data Engineering team since the acquisition (now the X era). Together, we achieved so much despite limited resources and unseen challenges. I truly believe that X has weathered its toughest times, and the team has some of the most committed and talented engineers ready to drive the company toward rocket growth. I will be cheering them on from the sidelines going forward. Thank you, Twitter/X, for an unforgettable journey that I will forever cherish!

Great news–discovery on Roblox just leveled up. Home now adapts to how people play, explore, and connect with friends. Plus, with Recently Visited content in Search, jumping back into their favorite experiences is easier than ever. #RobloxDev devforum.roblox.com/t/building-the…

@ehikian Congrats on a great run!

after 5+ years, today is my last day at x/twitter. it’s been the most interesting job of my career. i have so much love for this platform, the people building it, && all the internet friends i’ve made along the way.

The “top 1% SAT doesn’t reliably get you into top 10% colleges if you have the wrong demographics” thing is orders of magnitude more socially corrosive than the visa stuff

@sriramk Congrats on a great run! Can’t wait to see what crazy thing you do next 😀

@enriquebrgn @X You were a rockstar even when you were an intern. Congrats on a great run!

after 1,739 days, today is my last day at X! nothing but gratitude for the company that took a bet on me, watched me grow and empowered me to do amazing things. everyone working at @X is truly exceptional and I have no doubt the everything app will soon become a reality 🫡

Good letter from new Stanford president to admitted students. This is the right stake to put in the ground, hope they follow through!

@cambridgemike Sorry for your loss Mike. ❤️

My dad passed away earlier this year. I flew home to West Virginia for his funeral service this weekend. It was a beautiful weekend, full of family and friends celebrating his incredible life. I’m grateful for everyone who came and shared with me how much he meant to them. My dad lived his life to the fullest, with love for his family, kindness for his friends, and pride in his work.

.@robkhenderson's memoir "Troubled" is powerful, touching, and really important for anyone who cares about poverty, social class, or inequality. It's full of sociological insights, and you can get a preview in his WSJ essay: wsj.com/us-news/educat…

@aphysicist Long live freedom, dammit!

@enriquebrgn Congrats.
