Twitter is now X as the little blue bird disappears
I thought the the new logo was the X11 logo at first, they are bit similar.
Also a bit ironic seeing as Musk wants Twitter X to be an “everything app”, while X11’s cruft and bloated featureset have led to it being replaced by Wayland.
Computers and tech in general often feels like magic. The first computer I ever used was a ZX Spectrum, now I have something vastly more computationally powerful, and constantly connected to a worldwide communication network and knowledge repository in my pocket!
It’s amazing any of it actually works, especially as we don’t always seem to know how it works.

Python in Excel would be great, but nerfing it with some ridiculous cloud dependency is crazy. They could still paywall the feature if they really wanted while still running the Python interpretation locally.
I suppose we should be grateful they hadn’t also stuck ChatGPT on to it too so it could (badly) write the Python for you. Tech by buzzword will be the death of us I’m sure.
