The sole reason I pay for the blue check is to get Tweetdeck, so I can monitor a bunch of search terms and lists on one page. Hashtag search is broken now. It starts out fine (first pic), but within a few seconds, it's full of irrelevant crap (second pic). Magic 🙄

Sometimes, a quantitative change is so big, it becomes a qualitative change. With the new Scalable Application Keys feature, @Backblaze customers can create up to 10,000 keys per minute, *150 times* the current rate.

Kin Lane, aka the @apievangelist, kindly invited me to help kick off his new podcast, API Evangelist Conversations, earlier this week. Join us to learn about the evangelist role and how the S3 API became a de facto standard for cloud object storage. https://t.co/OSG8UR3I4d
API Evangelist Conversation with Pat Patterson, Chief Technical Evangelist at Backblaze
This is the first actual edition of the API Evangelist Conversation podcast with my friend Pat Patterson, the Chief Technical Evangelist at Backblaze. Always enjoy learning from Pat as we dove into the meaning behind his title, as well as how Backblaze has standardized their API around the Amazon S3 storage API–essentially treating the API as the industry standard for storage.

@kelseyhightower It turns out that the difficulty isn’t so much in the syntax as in deciding *every* *little* *detail* of what you want your app to do. Even with an AI helping, there’s a lot you can’t hand-wave away. 2/2
