We built the new #Paris2024 hub on some new product development tech at X called Jetfuel that makes it lightning fast to build new features across all clients. To start, this is how fast it is to develop in it. more demos & details in the thread 👇

fwiw I worked very closely with Marko and he has been nothing but an exceptional colleague. Old posts from his account does not reflect who he is today.

i am seeing a lot of users concerned about removing blocks. We can make mutes stronger, like not allow people you mute to reply or quote you. We can also transfer you block list to mute list. Preventing an account from seeing your posts does not work in practice. Anyone with any

superbowl portal on X was powered by @bunjavascript backend. reached ~800k concurrent users on the page and we realized we underestimated how good bun is; utilized only 10% of the cpus we allocated

. @ThierryBreton Is EU reluctant to give up centralized control and instead rely on democratic fact checking offered by community notes? Has any of the EU regulators looked at our open source code? No other social media has done that I don't even know what deceptive ui means

My thoughts on threads: I have no doubt threads will be the best competitor to twitter yet. We will learn a lot from them, they will get some things right. There will be new ideas. And finally, bring it on! I am looking forward to the challenge. We will be heads down building

Invisible to you all but an interesting change to X is that we rebuilt the entire trends system from scratch. All of the new Grok trends are generated on just two 32 core cpu machines. It's incredibly simple and efficient. While we are bringing you tonnes of new features, a lot

We officially launched the NFL portal today, check it out. It should be in your Explore tab. We are building a massive sports hub on X, this is just a glimpse. DM me if you want to build it with us.

Government spends money with no accountability. It should be criminal to waste tax dollars like this. Buy starlink and cut costs by over 90%!

The gov is spending 3x to 22x the cost of Starlink to connect rural locations to broadband. For context Starlink hardware is $599.
