Today I'm open-sourcing Tangle: a new library that automatically 'entangles' and syncs WebAssembly.
Play with the demo: tanglesync.com
And check out the code: github.com/kettle11/tangle

@gdechichi @ID_AA_Carmack You should leave instead.
Musk bought Twitter to manipulate politics and opinion. Everything else people try to do here just furthers that.
If you and Carmack respect the people you want back try to introspect on what they see that you do not.

@ID_AA_Carmack this is the reason why I started using X, I hope it comes back
English
It would be nice if some of the Twitter diaspora returned. So many creatives, but also many developers, that generally enriched the experience are no longer active.
Those that performatively left and those with a seething hatred of Elon probably won’t be back soon, but a lot of people just disengaged on vague cultural grounds that can be reevaluated.
There are probably some technical tweaks to the algorithm that could make them more comfortable. I don’t mind the existence of independent echo chambers that people are happy within. There is only a problem when some echo chambers are allowed and others aren’t.
Reach out to lapsed friends!

@bentay @ID_AA_Carmack Musk acquired this website to use it as a political tool. It's now designed to foster addiction, often via rage, to make that political tool useful.
"Here's how compilers work" isn't aligned with that goal.
English
@ID_AA_Carmack devs leaving twitter was the real brain drain
my feed went from “here’s how compilers work”
to “here’s my oatmeal recipe” in one year
bring them home so I can learn things again
English
@bai0 @ID_AA_Carmack Only popping in to say the point of this website is to bait people into forming their opinions in a room where Elon Musk controls the volume on everyone's microphone.
It is actively harmful. I'm disappointed in the people who do not read the situation and stay here.
English
@ID_AA_Carmack The exodus was real, but for those of us that stayed the new algorithm just does not favor the little guy. I post things that used to get a few hundred likes, now it's a ghost town
My expectation that you or anyone who follows me will even see this reply is nil. I post anyway 🤷♂️

@rsms The optimistic cynic in me sees a chance to grow a new culture. Something hopeful, niche, personal, and a touch radical.
I'm still mulling over what that really means, but certainly work like your own is inspiring on that front.
English
@kettlecorn Agreed. Every day I feel a little less part of “tech”
English
About 4 years ago I tweeted this. Well before most others were paying attention to the trend.
I am extraordinarily disappointed in how the tech industry has gone since.
Ian Kettlewell@kettlecorn
I am increasingly disturbed by the emerging archetype of people who are: crypto-loving, futurists, anti-“cancel culture”, anti diversity efforts, anti-media, and also giant Elon Musk fans.
English
In some ways I think this is good. The trail blazers and rebels were concentrated in "tech" because of the leverage it offered to improve the world.
Now they're again diversifying through more disciplines, enriching the world in more ways. "Urbanists" are one such example.
English
Tech is more normal now, which makes sense. Big companies don't rock the boat.
But I'm disappointed in the tribalism and the herd mentality of many individuals as well.
I miss the rebellious spirit and a culture that espoused innovation over appealing to power.
English
A reason I have grown disallusioned with the tech industry over the last few years is I've watched as much of the integrity and independent spirit has been drained away.
It's still there, in pockets, but things have chanegd.
Kurt Andersen@KBAndersen
Such gratuitous self-abasement. To a guy who has repeatedly, publicly insulted and threatened you. If $200 billion isn’t fuck-you money—or at least ignore-you money—you really are a pathetic worm.
English
I've been inactive on Twitter, but I'm popping in here to say this:
Tomorrow's election is critically important. Every conviction I have about the US, morals, and competency tells me that we must vote for her.
Please vote!
English
From my perspective this is really about a gradual erosion of ethics in SV, culminating in crypto frenzy.
The mindset gradually shifted from "back good ideas" to "back your team" and that aligns more with Trumpism.
rohit@krishnanrohit
the level to which the random journalist tech-hatred drove the whole of silicon valley into trump's arms shouldn't be underrated

Good UX is how waterbottles make a progressively higher pitched sound as you fill them up.

I have worked for the City of Philadelphia since 2015. This is still the coolest project I’ve ever worked on. It’s how we change the clocks at City Hall. Enjoy!

Old school Maxis is such an inspiration.
They had a phenomenal ability to weave silliness together with genuine intellectual play. All with never a hint of pretension.
And their soundtracks multiplied the experience by rejecting familiar genres and refusing to be a backdrop.
NWO@NEETWorldOrder
Video games are terrible nowadays because developers don't include an entire page of recommended reading at the back of the manual to further elucidate their whimsical satire of post-war American suburban consumerism.
English
@coryfromphilly @TheScottCharles Yes! I put together a before / after comparison of its changes and wrote up some history: reddit.com/r/philadelphia…
I'm not a fan of the new redesign relative to the old one, but I still appreciate the city not outright returning it to a regular street.
English
@TheScottCharles .@kettlecorn has a big reddit post about this place I believe
English
Source: my own morbid fascination.
From the outset, 10 years ago, I used to go to these Gamergate subreddits every few months and watch in horror as the movement progressed.
Then I watched as it metastasized to general culture.
English
A strong influence is actually Gamergate.
You can trace the use of language like "pilled" and "cuck" from misogynistic subreddits -> Gamergate / conservative subreddits -> general gaming culture -> young men.
Far-right actors intervened early to help set that in motion.

This trend has a boringly obvious explanation. Boys and girls used to hang out together more. The girls made the boys more liberal and the boys made the girls more conservative. But now the boys are at home playing shooter games, and the girls are at home posting on Instagram.
English
One of the silliest things I think about periodically is how prolific advertising is in modern life.
Even just a logo is a form of advertisement.
Could you curate your home to have no ads or logos within it? It'd be incredibly difficult.
