@kelidanovus my favourite wtf story is an API that used &quot;behavior&quot; and I, a Canadian, spelled it &quot;behaviour.&quot; It was totally invisible to my eyes as wrong and spellcheck in my IDE was set to 🇨🇦 too Three hours later...

I can tell that Elon Musk, Duke of the Manchildren and Ghost of Terrible Product Decisions has done something hilarious again because a bunch of my year-old toots about his incompetence are getting fav&#39;d.

Ok friends I need you to listen closely: Elon Musk doubling down and compounding his bad decisions is NORMAL. This is how rich assholes behave. This is how they ALL behave. We&#39;re going into a climate crisis. One that requires immediate action. We have unprecedentedly unchecked corporate power structures and an elite that has zero understanding. And they will make WORSE decisions the more they are pressed. The rich will destroy the world rather than admit they don&#39;t know what...
