Memo that my grandfather, and grandmother earned. American’s have always had to work really hard to get ahead, he did it, I’ll do it, so it goes. On and on. On numerous occasions she says, he worked 16+ hour days 6-7 days a week. He was a chemist, but held several important patents, invented, and built. Yes we need better wages, fair reward, but we need to work as hard as our elders did to improve it for the next generation.

@KettlebellDan I was at a 4 until prob January for a long time maybe a little before. Down to a 2. Hopefully a 4 with new algo next week.

how likely are you to recommend 𝕏 to a friend?

@nickshirleyy @EricLDaugh @Brookerteejones Before you corporate sponsors far outweighed public attention. Now public attention is heavy, which comes with its own set of ads and sponsors demanding free market attention and sales. Keep going.

Seriously though, they have all the money, filmmakers, editors, writers, and etc… what have they been doing for years? I film, edit, and publish by myself, with @Brookerteejones planning my schedule and helping coordinate. I heavily rely on my followers and locals to help with my stories—they’re the ones really living through whatever I’m reporting on! Now I have a team building out @AntiFraudClub_ to help us get more stories and videos out! Shout-out to @AntiFraudClub_, @Brookerteejones, and all of you!

🔥 BREAKING: Nick Shirley responds to CBS investigating rampant hospice fraud in Gavin Newsom's California — with ONE building purporting to have 89 companies "Good work! Glad to see news organizations with million dollar budgets do some real journalism" — @NickShirleyy They FEEL THE PRESSURE to investigate the fraud! Another win for independent journalism 👏🏻

A sad reality of it is the systems made to catch criminals are mired in the same red tape that slows it all down. You’d think they could see a video of clear fraudulent behavior and be investigating in days. Often all they have evidence for is shutting down future payments. Keep going though brother. Progress beats perfection and you’re bringing change.

@bennyjohnson Make them lear the hard way

Nick Shirley is Demanding Prosecutions Over the ‘Quality Learing Center’ The Department of Justice should act as fast as possible before they FLEE Minnesota to Somalia. Their fraud was exposed to the entire world on camera, now it’s time for consequences. We need to send a message to Somali fraudsters that they WILL be held accountable for stealing from U.S. taxpayers.

Vanilla was beautiful. So much core memory that was beyond the horizon for the time. I think I was 13-14. I remember playing NE first randomly just running out of Darkshore to go find Stormwind. Not understanding a game could even get so big it was just a terrible idea. Having to use a boat then die in a marsh to crocs 50x. Then leveling in STV on PvP. Idk that I’ve ever felt so much anxiety to proceed through a zone. Getting a mount at 40 and having 100g or whatever felt like real work.

@BWay124 @Grummz they were great from a gameplay sense just nothing beats the original feeling for me of wonder it was like the perfect game i always wanted, like the visual version of the MUDs i had been playing previously

Right in the feels. This hits even harder as a dev. The time helping lead the WoW team was absolutely peak. If you want a incredible illustrated book about wow, get the WoW Diary by John Staats. He literally kept a daily log, and eventually published it with gorgeous art.

@BillyM2k @Grummz WotLK and Legion later were master piece level to me. Always if you find the right guild.

@Grummz the first months of vanilla wow was the best gaming experience of my life and i don’t think could possibly be topped everything was magical, i took tons of screenshots just exploring and finding pretty places completing BRD the first time was so epic with my small guild

@elonmusk @HarmlessYardDog Yes. Everybody got to the “someone else will do it” mindset. As it would turn out there’s a limit to how many baristas you can have for how long.

@HarmlessYardDog We got lazy

Which one of you bozos thought it was a good idea to build the entire world economy off just in time supply chains from the most unstable regions on the planet?

@JackScarizzy @nikitabier @0x45o Some of the best living moments I’ve ever had have been unintentional. Went somewhere for plan A, plan B unfolds. Way better. Plus it’s a semantics game. If my intent is to waste time, I’m still intentionally doing nothing.

@BWay124 @nikitabier @0x45o I’d rather die than be unintentional

wasn't the point that they are long reads and therefore force people to spend more time on the platform?

@pnwguerrilla Land, cattle, deep water wells. South facing hollers. All types of stuff is good from digitization, as well as in a bad event.

I was asking this last night. What is the best investment right now beyond food, water, gear, and ammo?

@Kekius_Sage I hope I go doing something awesome or sleeping.

How do you feel when you think about death?

@KettlebellDan Idk that’s a good one do. Perfectly crisp.

what, if anything, could make this breakfast s’more any more perfect

@BillyM2k The adjustment cycles weird for sure. I like having it but sometimes disrupts things in areas I don’t wanna see it. But I know how horse salesman felt once upon a time.

i like using ai quite a bit, but it has definitely made society worse so far

@JackScarizzy @nikitabier @0x45o NO! You must be intentional 24/7. No scrolling aimlessly to relax. You must be mission oriented while you scroll!

@nikitabier @0x45o How do you know what I think is valuable?

@nikitabier @0x45o lol ?

@0x45o My job is to increase unregretted time spent. Every tap, every word must be intentional and valuable to the user. If you get sucked into bad content, that’s time taken away from a conversation you could be having elsewhere.

@ZubyMusic My guys got the best hair coming in.

My little boy growing day by day. 💜

@patrickbetdavid Anything is possible. He went from family of 7 in a tiny 2 bedroom as a kid to giving me and my brothers every opportunity. But he kept the core hardship of Appalachia to pass on which I appreciate as a man now.

What is the biggest lesson you learned from your father growing up? Share 👇🏽

@elonmusk Countdown until we see news articles “Elon encourages followers to be dictators” on legacy media.

Be a dictator!

@BillyM2k The sign stopping entry to Heaven reads “You changed your password 5 months ago.”

@BillyM2k @QXsToo @elonmusk @X Every change shifts who even uses the app for how long, and so many make it where it’s hard to even tell if I want to. They’re not subtle shifts but massive moves back and forth to test which is not what live users are typically experiencing in prod.

@QXsToo @elonmusk @X i imagine most people complaining have used this app for a long time and have seen their interactions fall off a mountain with the new algorithm changes the entire feel of the site is different and there’s many reasons, but primarily, there’s no growing a community

As a user, it's simple. I open the @X app. Here's what I hope to see — and I suspect many of you do too: 1. Great, informative, useful, or entertaining content (by humans, machines, or companies) 2. Real, authentic — even “boring” — posts from the people and networks I actually care about 3. No spam, bad bots, or reply farming As an X employee who uses it every day, I believe we’re actively building toward exactly this. Does this match what you want when you open X?

I don’t wanna see bots post at all. I would love a “hide automated content” button. Plenty of bots everywhere on all the other social medias and they’re filled with ads. That’s competing against known, established indexes. YouTube, insta, facebook, and whatever comes next. X is a place to write, and add some visual quick form with it. I wanna see humans write and add visual quick form with it. Not really anything else. Companies are cool if they write and use the same. The best ones do.

@yunta_tsai And your ability to release the heat they produce efficiently and cool. We sweat, hydrate, all types of stuff for extended range and operation. Sleep is also the coolest auto recharge.

One of the fundamental limitations of compute is energy. Hence, there is a biological limit to our brains before they get too hot or inefficient. The same applies to robots, especially if they need to move—there is a physical limit to the thermal management and battery mass you can associate with the computation needs before running out of room for other mechanical parts. Deploying 2M H100s would roughly take 3-4 GW. In contrast, 2M Tesla vehicles running around while providing essential heating and comfort to the human inside take less than 1/10th of that energy. Thus, real-world AI is bound by the joules you could carry with you.
