Web devs: a mystery. I cut and paste a URL (.../can-you-hear-me-now) but twitter pulled a different post to actually link to and preview, even though in thread context view it is clear I pasted right url. The wrong url is one I haven’t shared recently and isn’t open on my device.

Thread where this happened (see replies). My candidate explanations:
a) distributed caching error
b) hash collision
c) multiverse quantum weirdness
d) Iranian hackers

There’s no reason to expect that even conscientious persons (with full powers of reason & adequate time to consider matters) will arrive at the same conception of “the good.”
So why on earth do we imagine irresponsible idiots will manage this?
(And yes, this is a subtweet.)

Try running it through the Twitter Card validator? It should show the metadata Twitter scrapes from the page. Twitter's cache may be wrong, running it through the validator might refresh it. cards-dev.twitter.com/validator
