    Just finished reading Bad Blood by about the massive fraud that was Theranos. This is a whole new level of crazy in silicon valley. Unbelievable how long it went on and how many people got away with defending it.

    Love the replies on this tweet! Definitely an issue for me back in the day - "colonel" doomed me. What words did you mispronounce?

    I read this recently and I love it. Never make fun of someone if they mispronounce a word. It means they learned it by reading.

    Definitely not happy with where our policies are. They need to constantly evolve. Doing that work. Thanks for the thoughtful tweets and push, Mike

    I don't agree with everything Twitter does or doesn't do. If we can consistently enforce the policies and terms of service for the platform, that's a good thing. But it doesn't mean we should be satisfied with the policies we have.
