Companies lies on their job specs all the time, so it’s fine to lie on your CV. Just don’t put in anything that could be easily disproven.

This just in, workers in capitalist countries are widely recommended to “juice up” their resumes by taking small roles and describing them in terms that make them sound much bigger than they are. This tactic is suggested to workers at all levels of the economy.

Coming up at Eleven, the meritocracy is real, and liars never get ahead. /s

This is an absolutely brutal and spot on analysis. This dude is great.

The overwhelming majority of this revenue was from advertising, but according to Musk’s thesis that revenue stream was garbage. He would deprioritise ads, reduce moderation, and boost the posts of people who would pay $8 a month for a blue tick.

… So if someone is posting regularly enough to be willing to pay $8 a month for a blue tick, but has not built up a sizeable following organically, this is a very strong signal that the posts they are producing are no good.

It is exactly that content that Twitter’s new model relies on promoting – and those newly-minted blue ticks are quickly learning that there is no magic behind the checkmarks. New followers are not magically heading their way. The problem wasn’t a biased liberal algorithm, it was that their tweets are no good.

His ending was spot on as well:

There are major elections in the UK, EU and USA next year. There are no adults left at Twitter to safeguard their integrity.

Twitter’s chaos has consequences – but it’s not Elon Musk who’ll feel them. It is, alas, all of us.
