Prof. Vladeck’s point speaks volumes about what is wrong with Musk’s Twitter. Time to leave. “As the Twitter Files document dumps continue, it’s clear that Musk not only lacks [1st Amendment] expertise, he also seems wholly uninterested in developing one.” msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-opin…

On these nights in Ukraine, one can discover awesome little things. For instance, you can actually download English Wikipedia and read it offline. All articles, all pictures. Basically, the whole knowledge of humankind just on your laptop.

23/ The United States & China are watching this adaptation battle. It is very likely that their observations and analysis of the war will result in adaptation to their weapons programs, warfighting concepts, organisations, and the training of their personnel.

The uncertainty inherent in military operations is part of the enduring nature of war. It is impossible for a military institution to anticipate everything. Therefore, a key virtue for military organizations in war must be adaptability. Adaptation in #Ukraine - an update 1/25 🧵

Matt Taibbi and Elon Musk rummaged through millions of emails & Slack messages from pre-Musk Twitter & all they found was employees deliberating & consulting w/each other about how to fairly apply & enforce rules. But I get it.. To a rich white man, that seems very oppressive

This has it absolutely right. January 7, 2021 was exactly the day the woke left mob got out of bed and decided, hey, let's all get together and pretend Donald Trump did something bad. – at Washington, DC
Replying to @shellenberger
On Jan 7, senior Twitter execs: - create justifications to ban Trump - seek a change of policy for Trump alone, distinct from other political leaders - express no concern for the free speech or democracy implications of a ban This #TwitterFiles is reported with @lwoodhouse
