Eli's Monthly Twitter Dump November 2021

Best of the best for all my precious subscribers

The internet is a large and scary place. It is also endlessly full of useful, amusing, educational and batshit crazy things so I decided it would be a fun exercise to share my favorite tweets with you every month. If you like this stuff you should in fact, follow me on Twitter and you should also consider forwarding this to a friend and telling them to subscribe to the newsletter.

This is maybe the longest Twitter dump to date. I found so much good stuff. I think that probably means I’m spending more (aka too much) time on Twitter rather than the fact that the people using the platform are getting better. But whatever. This puppy is probably going to get cut off so you may want to scroll all the way to the bottom and click “View Entire Message” so you can view in your browser and see all the goodness herein. A lot of things in this made me LOL but I think the Leonard DiCaprio one got me the best. Let me know your faves and send this to your friends! Enjoy.

In theory, crypto makes it possible for users to partake in the success of the products and communities they are part of. In practice, token-based economies are very difficult to design. We’re going to see a lot of trial and error. Some challenges I'm seeing:

Archaeo - Histories @archeohistories

Thousands of years ago, Inuit and Yupik people of Alaska and northern Canada carved narrow slits into ivory, antler and wood to create snow goggles. This diminished exposure to direct and reflected ultraviolet rays thereby reducing eye strain and preventing snow blindness.
