Me, too. I don’t know why. I assume TechCrunch deleted the 2003 article, but that shouldn’t impact a snapshot.
- Comment on A beginner's guide to Mastodon, the open source Twitter alternative | TechCrunch 7 hours ago:
TechCrunch has that article tagged as “evergreens”, which I think is their code for “we can probably get away with reposting this later and pretending it’s brand new.”
Case in point, this article was published in 2023.

Something wrong with that link

- Comment on Transcribed text of Samantha Fulnecky's assignment, paper, and professor's comments 1 week ago:
There’s not really an article.
Turning Point OU tweeted screenshots of the assignment, the essay, and the professors’ responses.
I transcribed them in the OP (under spoiler accordions so you’re not blasted with the whole thing all at once).

I love this thread. It’s like a quick list for who to block.
- Comment on Is there self help for narcissism? 1 week ago:
I used to have narcissism, but then I helped myself out of it.
I did such an amazing job (the best job, in fact) that I don’t have it anymore.

They also got the student’s last name wrong for some reason.

- Comment on Noise machines installed by LA Home Depot ‘torture’ for day laborers, advocates say 1 week ago:
Would be hilarious if all the day laborers went to a competing hardware store and Home Depot saw their sales drop by 50%.

Honestly, posting all of this on Xitter looks like an own-goal by Turning Point, but you can tell they don’t see it that way.

- Comment on Backing up Spotify 1 week ago:
This is by far the largest music metadata database that is publicly available. For comparison, we have 256 million tracks, while others have 50-150 million. Our data is well-annotated: MusicBrainz has 5 million unique ISRCs, while our database has 186 million.
Does this mean the MusicBrainz database will soon go from 5 million to 186 million tracks?

- Comment on How do you check if food is healthy? 3 weeks ago:
Discover what’s really in your food — we’re building an app that helps you instantly understand what’s healthy, what’s harmful, and what’s just marketing. Join our early access and help us create a wiser, more transparent way to eat.
Not selling anything yet — just testing if this solves a real problem
I have read this three times and still have no idea what your app does.
Am I going to scan a barcode and it tells me whether something is healthy?
Do I give it my grocery list and it suggests alternatives?
Do I turn on the microphone during a food pub and the TTS voice says “that’s a lie”?

Because the steps for Xitter were :
- Want a Xitter
- Go to Xitter
- Create an account
- Enjoy(?) Xitter
Even one extra step that adds friction can lead to you just not doing the thing.
Mega-orpos spend billions to reduce the number of steps to opening your wallet, because they make it back tenfold.
- Comment on Why you may not want lower prices as much as you think you do 4 weeks ago:
If wages stay high but the price of goods fall, companies won’t make enough profit to pay their employees.
*FTFY:
Companies won’t make enough profit to keep the investors happy and giving their CEOs billionaire compensation packages.
