With dear friends and @pjmfnd partners Caroline Old Coyote and Michael Running Wolf (@Obnoxious_Wolf) at @sxsw, I’m so proud to be a part of one of the first land acknowledgments here, led by Lucile Contreras of the Lipan Apache, before we discuss #AI/AR, indigenous identity, and how technology can support the journey of words to worlds of cultural meaning. – at Austin, TX

I was on a privacy compliance team once so Twitter not fulfilling DMs deletion is shocking. DMs are not end to end encrypted so deleting DMs secures #privacy, particularly for EU users. The right to be forgotten is serious in the EU. Don’t ignore #GDPR because it’s inconvenient.
For years, there hasn’t been any clarity around what Twitter’s inbuilt tools for deleting your messages actually do, and research has shown that the platform holds deleted DMs within its servers for years. trib.al/AW6FcvI

Imagine putting on a virtual reality headset and entering a world where you can explore communities, like Missoula, except your character, and everyone you interact with, speaks Salish. missoulian.com/news/local/me…

I barely do the #twits or #tweets but I must weigh in: experienced #enterprise #softwareEngineers understand that #scale is complex and blaming a methodology without understanding the problem it solves leads to large scale failure.
Replying to @0xabad1dea
complaining that a system is bloated because it has too many microservices is like complaining a pizza is too big because it has twelve slices. that is… not the metric you should be checking
