It is my professional opinion that React Native is dumb. Gotta be a better way than this.
Or do you need to pay for a check mark to access that feature now? lol

Twitter's Web client on iPad is broken, doesn't open keyboard when focusing Tweet text box (in timeline or in tweet modal). Total P1 & S1 if you ask me, users can't do the _main_ thing.
Those org changes really showing their value..

Weekcap 2022.48 - A weekly recap, a weekcap, for the 48th week of the year 2022.
Started contributing a RN project at work after not touching this ecosystem for ~5 years and their flex implementations still doesn't have gap support. Seriously? #wat
Smash and grab job, lot’s of polish to do - especially on mobile. But that’s fine - one step at a time, always be shipping.

Scoop: I am hearing far fewer than expected devs hit "yes".
Elon sent out an email relaxing remote working from the former draconian policy.
I'm hearing he is having meetings w top engineers to convince them to stay.
Sounds like playing hardball does not work. Ofc it doesn't.

Scoop: Elon Musk just sent an email to all staff outlining "Twitter 2.0", writing it will"need to be extremely hardcore". Long hours, high intensity.
People need to click "yes" to confirm being part of this by 5pm ET tomorrow, else they get 3 months severance. More details:

I asked #Galactica about some things I know about and I'm troubled. In all cases, it was wrong or biased but sounded right and authoritative. I think it's dangerous. Here are a few of my experiments and my analysis of my concerns. (1/9)

I made an apple shortcut recently that is small but has helped me out at work. A simple pair of shortcuts, one opens the usual apps I need and one closes. Simple, but helpful to unplug from work quickly
This holiday season Twitter fires 4K workers, Amazon fires 10K workers, & Facebook fires 11K workers—all while US Billionaire pandemic wealth increased an absurd $1.7T.😳
A reminder that billionaires don’t create jobs—they exploit workers. Tax billionaires. Unionize workers.

If someone told me that Elon was wandering the corridors of Twitter HQ asking anyone if they’d seen Jenkins, as he’s responsible for all the builds and he couldn’t find him anywhere I’d sort of believe it at this point.

apparently they didnt turn off 2-factor authentication but they DID turn off the service that sends you the 2-factor authentication code. so if you log out and try to log in with an authentication code you simply wont receive one. lol. lmao

People are starting to say Elon Musk isn't actually a real engineer. But he definitely said "I don't know why people think Twitter is so complicated. I could fix it in like a weekend." And then proceeded to fuck everything up. That's exactly like an engineer.

Whoops, Twitter won’t let me change my name back, so it looks like I’ll be Possibly Tim Sweeney forever! Anyway, for those taking a break from reading stories claiming the world’s burning, here’s a primary source article:

The hilarity of a spam bot insta reply to this just underscores how big a dumpster fire we’ve got on our hands.

Elon just compared non-verified accounts going forward to emails in a spam folder. Sounds like you'll need to pay for Twitter Blue for people to actually read your tweets. No more of those "this site is free" jokes, folks.

I’m sure that Jesus fore saw that two thousand years later people on a different, undiscovered continent would celebrate his co-opted birth that was moved to cover a pagan holiday by wasting electricity on powering pretty lights a full 1/6 of the year.

From my house I can see 8 houses that already have Christmas lights up and on. Do we care so little for the pilgrims? (And their exploitation of the Native Americans?!)

I can't wait until Twitter Blue drops and THE PEOPLE have a say!
Specifically the people who are trolls.
Who will now get to credibly impersonate a celebrity for the LOW LOW PRICE of $8/month!!!

TBH, I hope Twitter’s imminent implosion leads to more blog posts and a really good RSS reader I’ve been waiting for a decade for.
