Nice Twitter thread from Nov '24 analyzing the paper: https://x.com/Robert_Palgrave/status/1856273405965693430

Is there a way for not Twitter users to read these?

Yeah, replace x.com with xcancel.com or nitter.poast.org, e.g., https://xcancel.com/Robert_Palgrave/status/18562734059656934...

While poast works, I strongly feel most people on this site are not aligned with what poast represents. Graf has to spend a lot of time (and time = money) getting accounts set up to run nitter, and it would suck if the views of poast users wound up costing the internet a twitter mirror.

I strongly recommend people not investigate this unless they think 4chan is quaint. As in, if the reason you are not using X is because of the outrage at Elon and the "typical user" of X, then maybe use xcancel instead.

fwiw i believe strongly that there would not still be a nitter without graf's work on it.

in the space of working on cool shit, he's good people. see: moldbug and urbit, for a similar case.

oh, totally. I was hoping to avoid people going "i wonder what poast is", but Graf said they've been backlinked before and it's no big deal; but i can't remove my earlier comment.

So i guess i misread!
