It just hasn’t hit that Twitter-level critical mass of users

Twitter used to be bigger than it is now and it also used to have less spam. So clearly size isn't the problem.

The problem with twitter is Musk fired all the people who spent their day figuring out how to hide (or just delete) shitty content.

TLDR - they don't want a transition from combustion engines to electric cars. They are saying building electric cars is bad for the environment.

It's not really targeted at Tesla - what they want is for everyone to start using public transport/etc.

"Retarded" was once a medical and technical term. It's not any more and has officially been redefined in dictionaries as abusive slur against people who have a serious medical condition... and you used it in the modern context.

It was a few minutes after takeoff so they were still over a populated area. Hardly surprising that it was found... also if it landed on grass I'm not surprised it's undamaged.

I love the comparison of string length of the same UTF-8 string in four programming languages (only the last one is correct, by the way):

Python 3:

len("🤦🏼‍♂️")

5

JavaScript / Java / C#:

"🤦🏼‍♂️".length

7

Rust:

println!("{}", "🤦🏼‍♂️".len());

17

Swift:

print("🤦🏼‍♂️".count)
