Well! That’s all, folks. After almost 9 years—a third of my life, my entire adult life, from intern to staff—Friday was my last day at Twitter. The stories I have … they’re for another day. For now, thank you to everyone who made it so memorable 🫡

Excited to join the team at @OpenAI this week. If ChatGPT’s being a little dumber than normal, that’s me on the other side

For the second time in three months, rent is due on the same day a capital call for my roommate's VC fund is due. Starting to get the sense I’m investing in my roommate's rent

I worked on these metrics at Twitter. What he's suggesting is almost certainly cumulative screentime/day of Twitter, a metric every company has and is easy to calculate, not screentime relative to other apps.

Hey, you’re right. I can’t speak to the rest of the thread, but this was a decision we made years ago (linking to profile vs tweet) and it’s clear now that it was the wrong call. We’re gonna right that wrong and change it to link to the original tweet

I'm in Google BigQuery, writing big queries (is God real? Does free will exist or are outcomes predetermined? How does Remy control Linguini in Ratatouille?)

Thinking about how to take advantage of my newfound unemployment. The Winter Olympics in Milan are 3y away and I bet I could make the US curling team if I tried

Updates to this; it now:
• Evaluates links for malware, phishing, and other forms of social engineering
• Uses 200% more training data in its GPT-3 model
• Classifies non-spam texts into transactional or promotional subcategories
Soon; optional filtering of:
• Texts from non-fixed VOIP senders, burner phones, and/or email addresses
• Texts in fine-grained categories (eg DoorDash delivery updates, surveys about elections)
• Texts with hateful, violent, or sexual language from unknown senders

GPT-5 built its own announcement: given a Figma mock and “make it feel alive,” it made a 3×3 mesh gradient, drifted it via layered sines w/ a second oscillator modulating phase + made our summer colors “breathe” through tiny HSBA shifts from shared noise, blended for coherence

Nothing but the highest of respect. Just the best. I’m going to deeply miss having you around and hope to cross paths again as soon as possible.

There’s some local processing but majority is remote, yeah. Could do more, but there’s a 16mb ceiling on memory for extensions 😪

I contributed in some form to both of these teams and to be extremely fair to the new team - there was considerably difficult work needed to be built from scratch to ship this
