In week 47 (20-26 nov) is het aantal kinderen van 5 t/m 14 jaar met longontsteking gestegen tot 130 per 100.000 kinderen. Vorig jaar waren dat er op het hoogtepunt 58 per 100.000 kinderen.

Some people asked me to share what I just shared in a space about the rate limits. I don't work for Twitter but, I do architect IT cloud solutions as my day job.

It is temporary. Twitter's rate limiting is not what everyone is thinking it is. It is not to punish non-paying users.

"Data scraping" is a big deal. This is where automated systems load the website or app and pull your tweets/data. It's a huge security issue. Automated systems are pulling every tweet/word/user account information to store in an unknown database somewhere else.

This could be state actors like China, the US Government, Australia, or other bad political actors like PAC's that are trying to gain access to everyone's information to analyze and use for nefarious things. Manipulating what is said on the site can be done at scale with data scrapping.

It could also be used to figure out the identity of Anons or to punish people in their country for what they tweet. Looking at you #Australia and #Canada and #UnitedKingdom

The temporary measures of limiting tweets is to protect users just as much as it is to protect the entire Twitter network from going down. They are currently scrambling to get ahead of this and tune their network security to block it from happening again.

It's also important to note that twitter has 500,000+ servers. That's not free. In cloud data centers, the companies that use them have to pay for what is called "ingress and egress" of data going "in and out" of the servers. A data scrapping event that is large enough for them to start limiting means that it was a MASSIVE event that could be considered an attack on the site. It would also put massive load on their servers and cost them so much money it could threaten the site's financial ability to keep running. It could be on purpose to put twitter out of business from cost alone.

Many people are misunderstanding why @elonmusk wants people to pay for twitter or for the twitter API (a programming interface that can pull data for other sites and apps).

The reason he wants people to pay is because if China or porn companies want to create massive bot farms of fake accounts, it is currently free. These bad actors are highly skilled and operate like a business. They have professional staff that continuously change their tactics and Twitter engineers have to fight 24/7 to stay ahead of them. If they have to pay for every account or pay to use the API, it would cost them A LOT of money. This limits the amount of people who could create bots, put automated porn on here, and the hacking/scrapping/DDOS attacks on the site. It protects you.

It also guarantees twitter will continue to exist without bloating it with tons of ads. This is all a part of the plan to create a free-speech place we can enjoy without being controlled by outside actors or advertising companies. I know $8 is a lot to some people but, it is for many reasons. None of the reasons are to hurt or punish people.

@KarstenKroon mijn vrouw vind jouw commentaar geweldig een feestje, maar vooral ook wanneer je over Ezels begint. Dank!

Kijktip! Bijna niemand weet wat er zit achter de aanvallen op nu weer Johan Derksen. Het is een georganiseerde strategie. In deze nieuwe video legt @YerRamautarsing bloot volgens welke regels Marxistische organisaties als #BlackLivesMattters opereren. https://t.co/YXLX0twhR7

@JumboSupermarkt goedemiddag, krijgen de kassamedewerksters handgel ter beschikking? een serieuze vraag van een bezorgde vader.

[Rob IJzerman  @bali1812]

@NS_online hahaha grappig, jazeker! Fijne avond!

[Rob IJzerman  @bali1812]

@NS_online goedemiddag, moet de conducteur bij de controle mijn kaart aanraken? Of mag het ook zonder contact? Vraag het voor een vriend.

[Rob IJzerman  @bali1812]

@NS_online dank voor uw antwoord! was overigens niet nodig om gelijk de politie voor controle langs te sturen hoor ;-) #5659

[Rob IJzerman  @bali1812]

@NS_online oke, uiteraard zal ik deze netjes afgeven, maar lijkt mij een behoorlijke bron voor kruisbestuiving met nare virussen. Oprechte vraag hoor.

[Rob IJzerman  @bali1812]

geen paniek, maar je kunt maar beter alles voorlopig voldoende in huis hebben.
