Dave Karpf (@davekarpf) a GWU professor, looked at Twitter's diseased body and gave Twitter six months to live.https://davekarpf.substack.com/p/how-long-does-twitter-have-leftI should be writing about the new proposed Georgia legislation, the latest court filings in the Dominion case, or Garland's latest statements.But I find I am fascinated by the Musk-Twitter fiasco and the possibility that social media may be in the process of evolving into something better.h/t @mjf_pro

@Teri_Kanefield @davekarpf @mjf_pro Twitter's diseased body. đI'm all for social media evolving into something better, although I am hoping there is some exclusionary clause allowing for us to continue to mock Genius Boy.

@Teri_Kanefield @davekarpf @mjf_pro I think heâs right. Those still on Twitter who have not yet been looking into other options such as Mastodon should start doing so as soon as possible.

@Teri_Kanefield @davekarpf @mjf_pro The most telling Musk episode was the most recent one where Musk insulted the former owner of a company the old Twitter had purchased. Except Musk didn't know who any of that. That says a lot about what Musk is doing at Twitter. A link to the purchase info. https://northstack.is/2021/01/06/twitter-acquires-icelander-founded-design-agency-ueno/

@Teri_Kanefield @davekarpf @mjf_pro I've learned to be skeptical of predictions like this. I still read two people on the bird site, both of whom are desperately clinging to their large followings even as the site crumbles around them. Frogs in water set to boil.If social media is going to evolve into something better, it needs to begin by not caring what happens to one site. Move on without them.

@Teri_Kanefield @davekarpf @mjf_pro I just want to know of that georgia legislation could put a stop to the Trump case. Sounds like they want a install a lackey DA to quash the entire issue.

@PITTERSPLATTER @davekarpf @mjf_pro The reality is that the soonest anything could be done is next year, mid-trial.I read the legislation and it sounds more like forcing a DA to bring cases the DA doesn't want to bring.If you read my last few blog posts: GOP in GA is doing just what you'd expect: the Republican legislature finding ways to push back against Democratic strongholds.Will it work? Ultimately only if the people go along, otherwise, it backfires.

@PITTERSPLATTER @davekarpf @mjf_pro In other words, if Republicans want to continue protecting Trump, they will keep looking for ways to do that.It could also just look like they're trying to protect Trump in a state that voted against Trump in 2020.

@Teri_Kanefield @davekarpf @mjf_pro Six months is overly generous, in my estimation. Twitter is already falling apart, under the hood, outages are becoming regular, and the worse it gets, the clearer it becomes that Musk does not understand (1) his product; (2) his target market; (3) is trying to bullshit his listeners by talking about "brittle" code. NOBODY rewrites legacy code. It takes way too long & costs too much.

@Teri_Kanefield I believe I read the Governor wants the DA's to prosecute cases HE'D like to see prosecuted... the other item, Legislators writing bills to target DA's who may be indicting them for past indiscretions. @PITTERSPLATTER @davekarpf @mjf_pro

@Teri_Kanefield @davekarpf @mjf_pro "The fines are coming. They will not be small. Between US and EU violations, Iâd guess Twitterâs tab will be in the low single-digit billions...When the fines come, Elon is going to seize on them as a reputational life raft.Heâll declare bankruptcy and blame the regulators...That narrative will, objectively, be bullshit. But his VC buddies and the MAGA/Tesla fanboys and the intellectual dark web podcasters will lap it up."https://davekarpf.substack.com/p/how-long-does-twitter-have-left

@thepoliticalcat @davekarpf @mjf_pro Last November, a Twitter engineer said we'd start to see things breaking by January or February, and that certainly happened.He also said once things start breaking, the down slide will be rapid.
