If you see this, why?
This is a rhetorical question. Do not answer, unfollow me instead. Stop enabling this platform to exist. There are better communities run by less unhinged individuals.
This will be my last tweet. Find me at bsky.app/profile/polemic.nz. Bye 👋

I see @Twitter is announcing rebuilt APIs!
New theory of software engineering. The “age” of a software developer generation is 3 years, or the amount of time required for a new batch of suckers for Twitter's API strategy.

In which @TwitterDev puts the final nail in the coffin, with startlingly little notice. Why do they hate their ecosystem so much. x.com/TwitterDev/status/1621…
