Elon Musk's Fight With The Algorithms

Very important to fix your Twitter feed:

1. Tap home button.
2. Tap stars on upper right of screen.
3. Select “Latest tweets”.

You are being manipulated by the algorithm in ways you don’t realize.

Easy to switch back & forth to see the difference.

Jack Dorsey

I’m moving $1B of my Square equity (~28% of my wealth) to #startsmall LLC to fund global COVID-19 relief. After we disarm this pandemic, the focus will shift to girl’s health and education, and UBI. It will operate transparently, all flows tracked here: https://t.co/hVkUczDQmz

Every administration, republican or democrat, has an opportunity to build trust with the public.

Instead, every single time, they choose deception and zero accountability. It’s not the party, it’s the system. https://t.co/sxLJTkPkSn

twitter search is my favorite feature (and undervalued) https://t.co/ku033h7mSt
— jack⚡️ (@jack) April 9, 2022

The most powerful feature that Twitter has:

Advanced search

Until recently I hadn't even heard of it, but now I use it all the time.

Here are 6 twitter advanced search features that will revolutionise the way you search for what to read: 🧵👇
— Tessa Davis (@TessaRDavis) April 8, 2022

Before we get started, you might be wondering why you need advanced search?

Your main feed just shows what's being posted NOW.

But there's absolute gold in the old tweets from experts you love + big accounts you follow.

Lots of learning just waiting there for us.

Here's how:
— Tessa Davis (@TessaRDavis) April 8, 2022

1. Find tweets from a particular person.

Want to see what @Liz_ORiordan's been tweeting about?

Just type in the search bar:

from:Liz_ORiordan

Want to see tweets to @LondonAllergy?

to:londonallergy

Combine these to see their interactions:

from:Liz_ORiordan to:londonallergy pic.twitter.com/Y7TZcvk6iE
— Tessa Davis (@TessaRDavis) April 8, 2022

2. Find tweets on a specific topic.

Keywords will keep your search results on topic.

Want to find what @kathevans2 has been saying about vaccinations?

from:kathevans2 vaccinations

But what if you want to exclude tweets about measles?

Just add - to the search term:

-measles pic.twitter.com/deSo0Khdyj
— Tessa Davis (@TessaRDavis) April 8, 2022

3. Find tweets that are popular.

You can set a minimum number of retweets, faves, or replies:

min_retweets: x
min_faves: x
min_replies: x

@OrthopodReg has been paving the way for culture change, but what if we want his most popular tweets?

from:orthopodreg min_faves:1000 pic.twitter.com/r1M1nZH6jx
— Tessa Davis (@TessaRDavis) April 8, 2022

4. Filter by a specific type of tweet

Sometimes you might want only tweets with images or links in them:

filter:links
filter: images
filter:media

Want to find that graphic by @DrLindaDykes on DNACPR?

from:drlindadykes dnacpr filter:images pic.twitter.com/gl97jlM4lW
— Tessa Davis (@TessaRDavis) April 8, 2022

5. Find tweets from a particular time period.

Add a date filter:

since:
until:

Do you remember @doc_bipolar sharing about her new blog but can't find the link?

from:doc_biopolar since:2022-03-01 until:2022-04-08 filter:links

Remember to use the format YYYY-MM-DD pic.twitter.com/fLZ6HuOqxB
— Tessa Davis (@TessaRDavis) April 8, 2022

6. Find tweets by location.

Add a city and a distance if you want local info.

near:X within:10mi

If you want to hear more from Glaswegians then you just add the location tag into the search.

near:Glasgow wellington pic.twitter.com/O3n3a6d3RU
— Tessa Davis (@TessaRDavis) April 8, 2022

The TL;DR of how you can search:

• from:twittername
• keyword1 OR keyword2
• min_faves:2000
• min_retweets:2000
• filter:links
• filter:images
• until:YYYY-MM-DD
• since:YYYY-MM-DD
• near:location within:15mi
— Tessa Davis (@TessaRDavis) April 8, 2022

So you are telling me Twitter Search is like Windows before the Graphical User Interface? :)

@jack you’re a funny guy. Why are you commenting on the Twitter board drama at all? From what I can recall, you’ve always been a part of Twitter’s problem, and the Twitter censorship & propaganda started with YOU. GTFOH. cc: @elonmusk https://t.co/z9afIQxf8G

@jack @paraga Twitter users should have a right to vote & choose if @elonmusk is allowed to buy twitter. The company should take consent from it’s users before transferring our years of data to someone who could misuse it!

@jack this single tweet screenshot sums up America for me, USA i.e. a vile racist country. A tweet from a white supremist South African @elonmusk has more likes than an Indian @Twitter CEO #ParagAgrawal !@sundarpichai @satyanadella @JoeBiden @BarackObama @WhiteHouse pic.twitter.com/cS3sTpvC8J

@jack @paraga remove @elonmusk from board asap...

Dorsey Ouster Was DNA Damage At Twitter

One can argue the service never really recovered from it. There is just something to the Founder CEO.

Tuesday, June 23, 2015

Twitter Making Second Big Mistake On Jack Dorsey

The first one obviously was when Jack Dorsey was ousted as Twitter CEO the first time around. Evan Williams, smart guy, shot himself in the foot. You shouldn't do something just because you can.

It is a DNA thing. Only the inventor can come up with killer features for the product. That person in this case is Jack Dorsey. The Twitter Board is in no position to decide.

If I were the Twitter Board, I would salivate at the prospect. Jack Dorsey is no longer a green horn CEO. He has now become really good at it. The first time around he was like, I should have held weekly meetings.

Twitter Board's problem should have been, maybe Dorsey is not available. Giving an ultimatum is bad manners. And it will hurt Twitter, which has been stagnant for a long time now.

I always thought Dick Costolo was more of a COO person. Evan Williams could have been Chairperson. But neither were cut to be CEO. And Twitter lost major momentum along the way.

A new direction would be to get much better at curate-and-display. Most people don't really want to tweet, they just want to consume.

This is not about whether Jack Dorsey is a Steve Jobs or an Elon Musk. This is about whether there is anyone better for the job, and there isn't. It goes with the territory.

Sorry Jack Dorsey, Steve Jobs And Elon Musk Are Exceptions

Currently, Musk serves as the CEO of publicly traded Tesla Motors and the private company SpaceX. Tesla is currently valued at about $25 billion and Musk has his sights set on a $700 billion valuation.

Bilton, Dorsey And The Truth

Nick Bilton came out saying looks like Jack Dorsey got booted out again at Twitter. Jack Dorsey is out saying not so. Amusing.

Dorsey's Second Snub At Twitter?

I was slightly amused reading this. Maybe Dorsey is no Steve Jobs either. For one, Steve Jobs was not trying to be anybody. Dorsey is trying to be Steve Jobs. That is a no no. You have to try to be yourself.

Perhaps Dorsey is a visionary and an innovator who just does not have Jobs' CEO muscles.

Dorsey, The Closest Thing To Next Jobs

A lot of people secretly hope to be the next Steve Jobs, or not so secretly. I have met quite a few early stage entrepreneurs whose idea of being Steve Jobs like is to exhibit really nasty behavior. It is like when I was in Nepal I thought crime was the only thing that happened in New York City. It does happen, but in my years here, thankfully, I have yet to witness one. Steve Jobs actually treated his team really, really well. The flares aside.

Sean Parker is too much of a visionary Chairperson, perhaps not enough of a CEO. Steve Jobs was CEO, period. His was a daily executing grind. Jeff Bezos belongs to the same generation as Jobs almost, and besides he has been with the same company the entire time. That is like Larry Ellison without his divorces.

Jack Dorsey is CEO. He has had his unhappy ouster from the company he founded. There is the drama, even the intensity. And he might still take Twitter to its promised, unrealized heights.

“I Never Wanted To Be An Entrepreneur” Says Jack Dorsey

”Twitter was not started because we had a good idea. It was started out of a failure. And that can happen today” .... Twitter is estimated to have around 500 million users — although not all of them active. Square has over 100 million active users.
