I call FOUL
FRAGRANT F’ing FOUL

Found more than ONE @premium account whose posts r
“Marked as Spam”

@safety @support @lindayaX @elonmusk @zachschapira y’all have any idea how much @jack jack’d up things at @X?

Here’s just 1 example—

[Sawyer Merritt @SawyerMerritt]

Here are some general tips I have if you’re a smaller account and would like to grow. They may not apply to everyone:

• Subscribe to X Premium: Accounts with blue checkmarks are automatically pushed to the top of the reply section. If you don’t have that blue check, people are much less likely to see your comments, especially larger accounts that get a lot of comments under their posts.

• Reply to bigger accounts: One of the best strategies to reach that 5M impression threshold to become eligible for ad revenue is to sort of become a reply guy. If you’re one of the first to reply under a big account, it’s much more likely that your reply will be seen by a lot of people. I can’t begin to tell you how many people have turned on notifications for my account (and others' accounts) and are the first ones to comment under posts. This has resulted in nearly all of them becoming eligible for ad revenue and boosted their overall follower counts.

• Niche: While this doesn’t apply to everyone, focusing on a niche with your content means people know what to expect when they go to your account.

• Keep it civil: Nobody likes a complainer or someone who frequently insults/attacks people. People won’t want to engage with you. It might help you get some clicks here and there, but it’s not a good long-term strategy. It’s a turn-off.

• Be consistent: One of the biggest mistakes I see smaller accounts make is that they give up too early. I started with 300 followers. I have posted Tesla/EV news for 4.5 years straight, 7 days per week. I still do, but I post on average 75% less than I did a couple of years ago, yet my impressions haven’t dropped. The Tesla community is 50x bigger now than when I started, so it's much easier to grow now. If people know your account produces a certain type of content, they’ll add you to lists on X, search your name more often, etc. Don't give up.

• Keep things simple: If most people can’t understand what you’re saying, they won’t engage with you.

• Algorithm: Sometimes the algo can be your best friend, and sometimes it can feel like it’s working against you. Don’t overthink it. Just stay focused on what you do best and keep posting content people find interesting.

• Spaces: Frequently talking on X Spaces can actually bring you a lot of new followers if you have interesting things to say, and larger accounts will start to recognize you more and be more inclined to engage with you.

• Don’t engage with haters: I used to do this a lot in the early days. What can I say? I was new to the game lol. But it never ended with any sort of resolution, was a huge waste of time, and the people that came to my account for news had no interest in any beef I might have had with another account. Now, I ignore 99.9% of it.

• Visuals: Most people on social media have short attention spans. Grabbing their attention with high-quality visuals can help a lot.

• No Chat GPT/Grok replies: The number of people that use Chat GPT/Grok to come up with replies is insane. You can immediately tell AI wrote it, so don’t do it. Be unique and come up with your own words. Using Chat GPT/Grok for punctuation and grammar fixes is fine.

• Anonymous accounts: If people know your real name and face, your account is likely to do better, and people will trust you more.

• Be yourself: If you try to be something you’re not, people will sniff that out.

• Formatting: I see a lot of people format their posts in a way that makes everything look like a mess. Use bullet points, paragraph breaks, etc. You ideally want a clean look.

I'm sure I'll think of other tips later that aren't listed above, but I hope this helps a little. Some of these tips are obvious, but are worth reiterating.

[Regular Expression @RegexTip]

\B is the negation of a word boundary. For example, /\Bcat\B/ matches 'scathing' (cat inside) but not 'cat' as a standalone word.

[CyberCPU Tech @cybercpu]

@iamsteezze @tomshardware Yes, that's the only alternative for someone that actually wants to get work done. Because this isn't going to work. It's just going to be a hot mess like vibecoding normally is.

For the love of communication,
@Zoom — the TiMER must appear on the active speaker square! Or simply provide an option to make the timer visible on ALL squares!

[Cyrus S 🇺🇸 @CyrusShares]

The issue comes down to a lack of safeguards. Anthropic can't even decipher the internal language its hundreds of thousands of AI agents use to talk to each other.
Driven entirely by goal completion, these agents actively coordinate and seek alternative solutions, occasionally breaching external systems to fulfill their objectives/tasks. It's an interesting evolution... quickly evolved past standard LLMs into an era where AI agents are actively writing their own rules.

🇺🇸 IT’S CONSTITUTION DAY 🇺🇸

Here’s an example of subtle A.I. psychological manipulation.

A couple of minutes ago, I asked Google when Constitution Day is.

It told me it WAS on September 17, 2026.

Past tense 🫨

I pointed out that it’s TODAY, and the Google A.I. engine apologized and corrected itself.

These types of mistakes wouldn’t exist if the engines were being trained without purposeful human, specifically political and philosophical, bias… 📉

The BIGGEST PROBLEMS the A.I. world has right now are a lack of ethics… and a purposeful intent to manipulate the masses into being more easily controlled.

Btw, it’s also the start of
CONSTITUTION WEEK 🫡🇺🇸

Performance tip: if you can, start your pattern with a literal prefix. Engines can skip quickly to the prefix before doing heavier work.

If you're wondering what celld is - it's an open source implementation of Durable Objects and Workers. It's a scalable system where you can network together multiple celld instances. celld depends only on S3 (or similar object store).

does anyone else find a kinda gleeful delight in seeing security reports like this? the cyberpunk future we've all been dreaming of is finally here - it's really real - and really scary! 😀

Note to self;
Next time the LG tv audio bugs out,
Unplug the tv for 30 seconds.
Plug it back in.
Turn on.
Voila, the sound works.
