A great article by nilay patel worth reading about why Elon Musk has jumped into a hellscape he canβt engineer his way out of. I donβt believe this will end well for him, or Twitter users. I give it 12 months before he flips it and loses billions.

Best quote Iβve seen yet on what Musk has done in buying Twitter:
ββ¦it looks like Musk dug a big hole in the forest, carefully filled it with punji sticks and crocodiles, and then jumped in.β - Jon Schwarz, Mayor, Arkham MA
For reference, a Punji stick is this horror π±:

It might not be a flying car, but this is the coolest βfuture techβ Iβve seen in a while. If it works as well as they say, itβs a fascinating way of letting you walk 2.5x faster for up to six miles. Very v1, but an impressive start. All yours for $1K. π kickstarter.com/projects/shiftβ¦
Since Thomas L. Friedman is usually quite prescient about things, Iβm inclined to agree that what heβs thinking will unfold. It all makes scary sense: this is an energy war, and most of the world isnβt ready for it. Sadly, we need *more* fossil fuel sources in the short term. Read β¬οΈ
I had such fun in Thailand attending the #APACCommunitySummit last month! It was wonderful to meet so many AWS builders from our various community programs; people who I might not otherwise see anywhere else. Awesome video! π₯°

Itβs pretty incredible that YouTube Music YouTube is increasing the price of the #YouTubePremium family plan by 53% in one shot! π² Thereβs nothing new being added here in terms of value; itβs the same as before, just at a much higher monthly rate. Yikes! π«€
After starting to watch #TheMandalorian for the second viewing, this time with my kids, I am reminded how badly I want to end every statement in my work meetings with βI have spokenβ just to see how people would react.

Dear dbrand,
I really like your #Pixel7 case, but Iβd like an option to get them in a less premium and less wasteful presentation box. This looks great but then it goes into the garbage 30 seconds after I open it. π«€ Charge me the same price but package it simpler. π Marques Brownlee
When I bought my #MacBookPro earlier this year, I was dubious I'd see any benefit in using Magsafe. As expected, I never use it. Carrying a special cable for charging one device doesn't offer me a benefit. What about you?
