Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

A hundred retuts, but the people would get like a hundred thousand retuts.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

And that basically destroyed, we used to destroy Twitter for you because once people who have no idea who you are seeing it and there's thousands of them,

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

everyone's going to be mad about everything.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

So in this case, like the number of people who were so mad about this, first of all, people would not believe that it's 19% faster in single core, but then they would say like, well, it's certainly, uh, you know, got to be slower in multi-core.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

I made the mistake of responding to one person and saying that it is actually similar to the M one and multi-core.

If something you write online or post online, some Instagram thing or whatever breaks containment out of your little circle.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

You'll know it because you'll start to get replies from people that are different than what you've been seeing.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

Not necessarily worse or more hostile, but just like that seem confusing to you because they evidence a misunderstanding of your deal.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

And it's because they don't know what your deal is because they don't have any context.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

Yeah.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

And so that's the thing that still happens.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

I'm so not used to it happening to me.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

This is why I talk about the cross-posting to Mastodon and Bluestide.

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

The reason I do that is I try to gauge like...

Accidental Tech Podcast
681: The Price of Your Nightmares

Where do I get more people actually responding to my stuff?
