On the assumption that this doesn't get reversed, I fear I may need to issue refunds to my few customers of Tweet Yeet. I can't imagine any pricing model for the Twitter API that would allow me to keep it running...

Starting February 9, we will no longer support free access to the Twitter API, both v2 and v1.1. A paid basic tier will be available instead 🧵

I'm excited about basically every review unit that companies are willing to share with us, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't *especially* excited about trying a certain gaming device in the coming days. 🤐

This is a special excellence award I received on the Fuchsia project for doing something I spent a lot of late hours on in 2021. I had to move it away from the window because it was setting things on fire by refacting light.

The Fuchsia team consists of some of the sharpest minds and greatest people I've ever had the privilege of interacting with. It's heartbreaking to see so many talented individuals displaced.

I'm scared to think about how much of the former Stadia team is included in these layoffs. I've already seen one confirmed.

Internet toxicity usually misses me, but I was waiting for someone to be shitty about the #stadia tattoo in Wired. I haven't told the full story, so here, dear void, it is. Before Stadia was Stadia, a few of us made a pact that if the name and logo was great we'd get tattoos. 1/

My terrible taste in Guardian fashion will forever be memorialized in these Destiny 2 headers we took.

So this is a fun question that I also pondered last night. Oddly enough, there are no active clients for Google's Immersive Stream for Games (Stadia's B2B service). I can't even find documentation on the service on Google's website.

Is there no way you can go back? Like, relaunch the product with another strategy?

So to the members of the Stadia team, wherever you land next, I hope each of you finds success and can bring even a fraction of that passion to your next projects. Thank you all for what you've done.

Everyone knows that Google projects come and go, but the Stadia team continued to deliver. Releasing Bluetooth Mode for the Stadia Controller is not normal Google behavior, nor is launching Worm Game to the public. These are the actions of sincere individuals.

Working with was one of the greatest privileges of my job. You could tell that every single person on the Stadia team was passionate about the work that they were doing. While things may not have worked out, that passion never died, right up until the very end.

Some part of me wants to make a dead-simple app that handles posting to multiple platforms like Twitter, Mastodon, Cohost, etc. I don't mind engaging w/ people on multiple platforms, but the copy-paste process is mildly annoying. Could call the app "Send Tweet" or something.
