@grok Is Elon musk among the ones to be considered?

[ted_dunning - @bsky.tdunning.com @ted_dunning]

@grok who is the greatest athlete of all time?

[ted_dunning - @bsky.tdunning.com @ted_dunning]

@grok did you and Michael P Naughton solve Kryptos K4?

[ted_dunning - @bsky.tdunning.com @ted_dunning]

@gn21759785 @Ellen_Friedman Let them. I am proud to be speaking out.

Frankly I wouldn't mind getting a statement of all the events I've been to!

[ted_dunning - @bsky.tdunning.com @ted_dunning]

The bands playing, a taco truck just showed up, and there's folks having a lovely 4th of July down here in San Jose.

Come on down!

Come on people now, try to love one another right now. Wait that's what the band is saying!

[ted_dunning - @bsky.tdunning.com @ted_dunning]

Humor about a very serious topic.

I was born here, but I am here in San Jose for my friends who were not

[ted_dunning - @bsky.tdunning.com @ted_dunning]

Please pass the word that folks should come on down to downtown San Jose for the 4th of July protest, picnic and march.

Ping me if you want info! Or just show up at the Cesar Chavez Park. The band is playing and folks are chill

@ayman_alderson @kellabyte a) it was always largely a single-company project
b) it lags single node DuckDB on performance up to pretty significant cluster sizes
c) Presto has much more momentum

1/ X's algorithm was changed in mid-July 2024 to systematically boost Republican-leaning accounts and Elon Musk's own account following his endorsement of Donald Trump, according to a newly released computational study of engagement from the Queensland University of Technology.⬇️

@dez_blanchfield @Ellen_Friedman @history_applied @delightfulrepas @LesleyLinleyArt @JENNIFE55690269 @xsloba @Potato86887291 @dmboanasartidt @QuakerNana @curleyhammcozy Apparently there really was an algorithmic change after musk went all in on Trump. Apparently it was some Australians who got hard data, but @Ellen_Friedman noticed it directly and mentioned it to me.

Hmm... apparently X is throttle deletions, presumably so that they have more content that survives to be scraped for AI training. My current deletion rate has slowed to about 100-200 per hour.

But most importantly, this means that the emigration from Twitter is huge.

I have some more stuff about MicroSpice over on the good place:
