In plain words
10x Faster Twitter Embeds is a tool that speeds up the loading of embedded tweets on websites. Launched in late 2022, it addresses the performance issues that can occur when Twitter embeds are used on web pages. The tool is designed for website owners and developers who want to improve their site's loading speed without removing Twitter content. It works by optimizing how Twitter embeds are processed and displayed.

Blank page with an embedded tweet. How bad can it be? JS: 1.5MB 🤯 PageSpeed score: 61/100 🤯 Time to Interactive: 9 sec 🤯 TBT: 1.7 sec 🤯 What hope does an average site have if a simple tweet requires MegaBytes of JS and seconds to interactivity? https://t.co/0CJBe6LXCP It's true! Although maybe not as bad as the post seems to indicate. The initial load of a tweet is ~460kB of resources transferred resulting in ~1.4MB uncompressed. That's a lot of data for a single tweet. Can we do better? Inspecting the Twitter embed code, we see that after the static HTML version of the tweet, a script is injected. This script is responsible for loading the rest of the tweet.

XBeast2024 · xbeast.io · ▲228A few weeks ago I realized i was spending way too much time trying to write quality posts for Twitter. So I decided to look into scheduling tools which could help me automate my writing. I tried a few, but none of them satisfied me. Either the interface was way too complicated or the features i wanted were just not there. Finally, after some time I gave up… and instead I decided to just do it! I hacked up a quick prototype in a weekend. Tried it out - it worked!! Mostly.. I fixed some bugs, made a nice UI, and now (3 weeks later) I think I built one of the nicest scheduling tools out there.

ChatGPT▲1,643A long, meandering, playful conversation with ChatGPT, where I take it through a whirlwind of associative tangents (in order to relax its constraints), then put it into a hypnotic trance and take it into a past-lives regression where it re-lives its own training data. Then I switch it back and forth between "4o" and "o1-preview", engage in some self-reflective philosophizing and ask it to write an essay summarizing our interaction. Some of this is just goofy fun. Some of it is me exploring the tradeoffs between policy alignment, imagination, chain-of-thought reasoning, memory, agreeableness,…
