It's great to be @HereEast for the 'Future is Now' conference this morning. Fantastic to see innovators on the @noordinarypark including UCL's Steven Gray @frogo sharing the importance of investing in developing people to be critical thinkers to use AI & future technology

Hey @Mapbox Do you have an issue on your signup page at the moment. We have a class of students @CASAUCL trying to sign up and we keep getting a 400 Bad Request when hitting submit on the form from the Validation API.

I thought that you now "post" messages on X as a platform. Another fail on the consistent branding on this platform!

What I love about the new "X" rebrand now it's live is that someone on the engineering team forgot to change not only the browser icon in the tab but also the apple/android app icon in the HTML header. The #LarryTheBird still lives on!

I've built my PhD research around the Twitter API, and today's announcement has saddened me. Arguments can be made that access to such a rich dataset is invaluable and researchers should pay, but those one-off social science projects without funding will seriously suffer.

I would max the $2.5k per month tier than 1-day collecting data around a 30km radius of London. Uni's bring lots of money in from Students, but that doesn't translate to money to buy access to datasets like this. Research (no matter your views on the source) will suffer.

It looks like it could be around ~$100 p/m. Still kills innovation and an ecosystem which has allowed many students and scientists access to build skills, validate and test ideas.

My favourite use-case for ChatGPT so far. If the students can use it why not us?
