I couldn't find a EUV within 10 hours of where I live, so I had to buy EV from a dealer 4 hours away. At 80% charge it has ~235 miles range, we charge it once a week and serves very well for what we need it for. However, tried to trade it in for a Tesla this month, but the trade-in value was way too low.
There is certainly not enough information in that quote to say one way or another what the bug was. I've definitely seen concurrency bugs under load because data that wasn't supposed to be shared actually was, e.g. I posted this serious GitHub bug in a comment above, https://github.blog/2021-03-18-how-we-found-and-fixed-a-rare....
Obviously sessions should be independent and not sharing data, but that's why it was a bug.
I believe any bug that only happens under load is a concurrency bug by definition. The shared resource is the thing under load. If it weren't shared, then the load from one computation would have no effect on another.
Elonjet was marked as automatic bot account. Both the bot and Sweeneys accounts were suspended. After updating the location policy Elonjet was unbanned.
However, Sweeney started using elonjet bot account to tweet his non-bot stuff and it got banned. I assume ban is for incorrect use of account or getting around his personal ban.
This is false info, that account was suspended for doxing people, contacting employers of people on Twitter and getting them fired by mass calling the businesses.
Source? Genuine request - “chad loder suspended” doesn’t bring up any stories with info not in that newsweek article for me. Unless you’re meaning a different account?
[edit]
Had another go and the closest i can find is a report from Dec 2021
"However, Los Angeles-based activist and researcher Chad Loder said their account was permanently blocked after reports to Twitter over publicly-recorded images from an anti-vaccine rally and a confrontation outside the home of a former Vice journalist."
So it seems like he may have been suspended in the past for things that might count as doxxing - but his account had been re-instated since then. Either way, I can find no evidence to suggest there was another reason for his most recent suspension.
They also said "for non-ideological or virtue signaling reasons", but proceeded to find cases where their ad was shown beside supposedly antisemitic content - based on their opinion, with no evidence.
Also has budget of $80M/year but needs AM, designer, analyst, and creative specialist from Twitter to support him.
I think Musk played people who quit this week, he used some trigger words in his email to sus out people who are not committed to the company. And the heard mentality kicked in and more people quit.
What does "committed" look like to you? The promise of working more for the same or less? What upside is there for folks who "commit"? Besides personal gratification, is it even remotely likely that Twitter will do something at this point to pull untold riches from thin air that would somehow benefit these people? From the sound of it, no.
The engineers (don't care about non-engineers) who quit need to face the fact that were part of "company" which gave negative returns to both public and private investors for almost a decade.
I think "committed" will still be 8 hours/day, like I said he sussed out people who are "triggered" by words or don't love what they do.
Do you work at Twitter? Do you have any reason to really believe this?
If significantly more than half of your coworkers left (fired, laid off, quit), it's very reasonable to assume that you now have twice the work to do. Moreover, we've seen in just the last two weeks people sleeping on the floor of the Twitter office(s), working more than 8hr/day, to urgently ship features that Elon personally nixed hours after launching. The language that Elon used repeatedly over the last week is "hardcore", implying that Old Twitter's way of working is "not hardcore"; if you were working 8hr/day before, what does "hardcore" mean beyond that?
> people who are "triggered" by words or don't love what they do
I love what I do, but I'm not about to start working harder without being compensated for that work. If you sign an agreement to work somewhere for a certain amount and the other party demands you work more without more compensation, no amount of "loving what you do" makes that equitable or fair. Loving what you do doesn't mean sacrificing the worth of your craft because someone said to.
Sussing out people who are "triggered" isn't a business move, it's a loyalty test. Loyalty is uncorrelated with skill or motivation. "Loving what you do" is uncorrelated with loyalty. There's a lot of companies out there doing amazing work that are hiring. Twitter isn't somehow special. If you love what you do and have been given an ultimatum by your new boss who has gotten rid of half of your coworkers and wants you to do more work, how is the logical move to _stay_ at the company?
Rather he kept people who don't feel like they have other options. Either due to immigration or feel they can't easily find another job or have financial obligation that don't allow the risk.
Most people don't like these sorts of ultimatums, especially those with the most options and flexibility.
Why would an engineer care about that? I see this kind of sentiment expressed here frequently and it's so bizarre. Engineers make products, they don't design them, they don't make the determination that they are marketable or profitable, that is all on the business end of things. Why would an engineer care? Why do people impart an absurd obligation onto twitter engineers?
If you step back from the trainwreck and look around, the job market is not good anywhere. Some definitely will find fast employment, but > or = quality & remuneration is not a given. For the rest, 3 months may cover on-boarding time, if they strike an offer quickly. This just sucks all the way around. I wonder if EM has a master plan or a brain tumor.
Transaction cost: about $0.75 on Ethereum or $0.01 on Polygon at the moment - no size limits. Zelle is free up to ~$1,000 per day.
Settlement: 12 Seconds on Ethereum or 2 Seconds on Polygon, "instant" on Zelle. However many transfers on Zelle use ACH under the hood, so it may take 3-5 days to settle with your bank. If the recipient isn't enrolled in Zelle it may take 14 days for them to register to receive funds.
I'll note that I regularly move USD around as part of my job and have always found USDC to be a superior experience than bank transfers - especially because I can use smart contracts and custody tooling to set custom transaction policies on required approvers, whitelisted recipients, etc.
