@RMac18 Are you happy about this?

spacex just aborted their test flight of starship as it was set to launch. unclear why. earlier in the day, spacex's stock closed below its IPO price of $135 for the first time. if you invested in the company's IPO, you are now underwater. bad day for spacex and musk.

@jason_kint We welcome constructive feedback. What would you recommend?

Clown show. As expected. Ignore it.

@maxwelltani I wonder where the First Dog on Mars will rank.

Wow: Peter Thiel's AI tribunal on journalism finds that First Dog on the Moon, the Guardian's cartoonist, has low evidence quality to support its claims. It discovered in a recent cartoon about turtles that "no external sources are cited or linked to within the article's text."

@ajs Thanks @ajs. We welcome feedback as we grow. As you can probably imagine, a lot of work goes into this. It will get better in time, as all new products do. Happy to chat and hear expert opinions.

I actually don’t think a (well calculated) trust rating is a bad idea at all. But it shouldn’t just be for journalists. It should be for everyone on X, ranking trustworthiness and expertise across industries and downgrading those who promote conspiracies or crummy info. Surfacing true original information first should catapult the scores

@nkulw Hello

So he reinvented the Techmeme leaderboard

@davidzmorris @DineshDSouza Uhhh, this is the problem. Please remind me which D'Souza is the founder?

The dimwitted @DineshDSouza used an LLM to write about why he must pass judgement on journalists' work

@MediaEvan Request indexing and see where you rank.

Imagine how embarrassing it would be to be number one on Peter Thiel’s good journalist scoreboard… hollywoodreporter.com/business/digit…

@showusyourwork Rent free.

I made fun of how stupid they were until they pivoted, and I'll do it again. Nobody cares how Peter Thiel and his juicing buddies score anyone's reporting if there's no paycheck behind it. This whole startup needs to die.

@showusyourwork Show your work?
