Real journalism would ask questions, like, why did it take you 6-18 months to do basically nothing except adjust spacing in an obviously negative way?
The fact that nobody even remarks upon this kind of thing, in fact everyone expects it, is a sign of how crazy bad productivity is in our “tech” companies and yet nobody sees this. It is straight-up crazy.

Very low productivity seems to be a surprising fact of the contemporary economy as a whole. Job descriptions and perceptions have in the service of patronage taken on a life of their own, quite divorced from actual production.

Seriously though, I’m always impressed how much indie game designers are able to do.

And yet, actual features are the furthest thing from Twitter's mind. I get "Tweet unavailable" all the time. Hey twitter, ever cross you mind to tell me WHY it's unavailable? Maybe I muted a word in it or maybe your software is buggy?
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
