TTT,
I am very tech savvy. I realise you are a coder, but you appear very out dated, dismissing machine learning and AI out of hand.
// Enabling anyone to see the site's code is "a bit senseless," said Vladimir Filkov, a computer science professor at the University of California, Davis, because very few people can understand how Twitter's code base works to produce what they see on their screens.
"Open sourcing something by definition means you can see the code, but it doesn't mean you can understand the policies or influence the policies that lead to that code," said Filkov, who develops tools to help developers run more effective open-source software projects.
