But if Musk succeeds, he has a small claim to being a hero (for once). I would gladly give him credit for sinking Twitter!
(But what he's done to his employees is deplorable, so hero-hat gets ground into the dirt.)

If these are legitimate screen shots, this is proof that cyber-security analysts are right that Twitter is completely insecure, which of course makes it completely untrustworthy. I suspect when all the dust settles out Musk will provide a report to the SEC showing the bot count when including hijacked accounts is far more than the 5% reported by the previous Twitter management. If this is the case I hope the previous management all goes to jail for securities fraud and cyber crime (failure to protect their systems).

The previous management actually took steps to verify accounts like those screenshots. Musk eliminated those verifications and replaced them with $8 so people could 'self-verify.' Your case against the previous management has no merit in the context of those screenshots.

Not sure what exactly you think you are referring to but how exactly do you think he is going to prove that?
Bot detection is usually or perhaps entirely based on detecting usage patterns. After all it isn't like they are going to start going door to door to check on each user.
Certainly Elon Musk is not going to bring anything at all to the table in actually detecting them. Except of course screaming about it.
Twitter itself was already detecting them. Now there are 50% fewer employees to enhance that detection. And those employees are not focused on that but rather in raising revenue. Not to mention of course that if they do reduce bots then revenue will go down because advertises are paying for actual eyes.

Seen this word guessing game on TikTok and decided to give it a try. As with most of them these days it seems to be inspired by Wordle, so a few of you may be interested in giving it a go.
Contexto
Basically, you guess a word, and it will tell you how close that word is to the answer in terms of context/usage.
It seems to be a bit too "luck" based for my liking, so not something I imagine I will want to play very often, but kills a few minutes of boredom.
Anyway, here is my score for today, should be nice and easy for you all to beat (notice I used 1 tip too)...
I played contexto.me #53 and got it in 73 guesses and 1 tips.

Good luck! I'm just hoping you are under 40 ... shoulders have a nasty habit of seizing up when damaged (called a Frozen Shoulder or Adhesive Capsulitis) and you really, really don't want that! ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

Agreed - frozen shoulders are bastards. I haven't been able to sleep on my right-hand side for over a year now.

Rotator cuff repair is usually surgery and recovery can be a bear. (my friend's words)
Frozen shoulder (I have had it twice) can be repaired with physical therapy.
Not fun and not without some pain relief. No knife required in my case.

If you have a torn tendon a frozen shoulder should not be on the top of your list of concerns. 
Not that a frozen shoulder is any fun though, it took me over two years to get rid of mine

Good luck. Hope you get a "Pain Ball" if you have to have surgery.

Sounds like you should have learned the knuckle ball instead of the curve. Hope you don't drive a stick.
Iβve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

I would not drive a car even an automatic, I have no movement in my left shoulder, it would not be safe.

Wow, that does sound serious. Praying to get it fixed right. You need that arm.

That can happen when you try to dive into C++ template metaprogramming too quickly. Get well soon!
