we’ll see. they can search comments and object methods/functions at first. focus the initial search on well exercised code with debug flags on. it depends on how many tools are available in the development workbench and language compilation packages, unit testing, etc.

anybody familiar with the twitter setup?

If it's COBOL or FORTRAN I'm in!

Agreed, but I hope the code review is at least a bit more worthwhile than what has happened on Hyperloop or Boring so far.

Every time Twitter lets the clamps off, my follower count spikes -- today, by over 40,000 in just a few hours. That's not a coincidence.— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) October 28, 2022

Code is still shadowbanning conservatives.


It has been less then a day. It is going to take time to sort everything out.

I think I screwed up the coding in my post #24. There should be an End in line 20. It’s been decades since I last did any coding!

10 Is the tweet conservative in nature? If yes, goto 20. If no, goto 30.
20 Delete the tweet and ban the poster. End.
30 Post the tweet.

When Musk orders a freeze, will there be a freeze or Twitter employees with enough access privileges be able to “burn papers”?

I know Basic, and that’s it. I attempted something Basic-like in my post #24 and made a rookie mistake. A correction was attempted in my post #48.

Even Joe Biden is embarrassed for me.

Code freezes are common. There is always an exception process. In this case it’s just done prior to a big layoff where they expect sabotage.
