@feross When will NPM learn

[Village Global @villageglobal]

So impressed with the grit of @tomascooking & team. Alembic applies pandemic-era contact tracing maths to marketing attribution, which companies like NVIDIA use to predict ROI from marketing spend! 🤯! LFG!

A startup I co-founded has managed to thrive through one of the worst startup markets in years, raising a $14M Series A - read all about it. https://t.co/XBEUyZam6S

@nheyman They wouldn’t say, only that they’d been trying to reach someone in Accounts Payable for a while with no response.

[John Adams @netik]

I don’t post here anymore because this site is now overrun and mismanaged, but I thought I’d mention that collection agencies for Twitter are now calling my house, for Twitter’s debts, 10 years after I quit. Just, wow.

Microsoft owns the trademark for X. This is just too good.

[John Adams @netik]

@lindayacc comical joke. you people have zero clue about what we tried to build

[John Adams @netik]

Just remember that “X�� is the universal symbol for close, dismiss, or cancel. Bye Twitter, it was a good run.

[John Adams @netik]

Could a company be any more irresponsible?

Looking at you @ouraring

Yes, yes, let's give my employer access to my fucking sleep schedule.

How many companies had to send out a "Twitter fucked us and we lost access to the API because Elon wants 42k/mo" emails after this weekend? Looking at you. Microsoft, Hootsuite and many others...

[John Adams @netik]

This bill is unimplemetable, ridiculous, and an affront to freedom of speech and privacy. How about we just block Utah entirely? Maybe that’s what they intended. https://t.co/3YAgMXFMCf

[John Adams @netik]

Yup that’s right, Now Larry the Bird is in a museum. Seen today at the Legion of Honor. What have we done, tweeps?

[John Adams @netik]

Well, that's crappy. There goes the industry.

[Brian Roemmele @BrianRoemmele]

This is the line at the Silicon Valley Bank.

[John Adams @netik]

@KimZetter you don’t get it. disabling it for thousands was a terrible idea without a transition plan

[John Adams @netik]

Agree they might be killing SMS entirely.

[@[email protected] @nelson]

I agree with speculation that removing SMS is about Twitter saving money. Gong off the data here I bet Twitter's SMS bill has been in the ballpark of $10M/year for authentication SMS, probably less. https://t.co/fA8aDuaffb

[John Adams @netik]

I’d also like to state that Twitter’s API has been throwing a shitload of errors all morning. Guess 2.6% of (2fa sms holding) users can break the site now

[John Adams @netik]

@Dave_Maynor and your post is incomplete, your point?

[Katey Psencik @psencikk]

Not to be all “I’m considering leaving Twitter” then not actually leave, but charging for 2FA might really be the thing that does it. I’ve been hacked on here multiple times, and I’m supposed to shell out cash for something that every other website does for free?

[John Adams @netik]

If your caught up in phony stark’s latest 2FA mess, and turned you off, go get a Yubikey or install Authy. It’s better than SMS
