The claude code source code leaked today and the tweets are great, maybe twitter is back.

Did you know you can replace the spinning verbs in Claude Code. I’m having fun with it.

Just tried using my twitter api key for the first time in quite awhile. Apps now need to be tied to projects in order to work. It looks like projects are where pricing comes into play. Thankfully they still give a free tier for doing small time things for myself. You can really see the effect that llms have on these things though as it is 5x more expensive to read posts than to make posts currently. Data is the new gold for these kind of companies.

💭 Twitter Requires full image_urls

2023-10-17T17:30:09Z

![[None]]

Yet again twitter cards were causing me pain. This time it was me not realizing that they require full urls, and not relative or abolute urls.

This was not working

    <meta name="twitter:image" content="/shot/?path={{ request.url|quote_plus }}" content-type='image/png'/>

This does work with a full url

    <meta name="twitter:image" content="https://thoughts.waylonwalker.com/shot/?path={{ request.url|quote_plus }}" content-type='image/png'/>

🙋‍♂️ Can Anyone Explain Twitter Cards to me?

2020-07-11T03:00:00Z

Can someone explain how or why twitter cards render differently from device to device? I do understand that twitter cards a built from meta tags, the full list can be found in their docs

Rendered on Mobile #

Mobile Looks fine.

Not Rendered on Desktop #

On Desktop it is not picking up the image.

Twitter Card Validator #

The Validator renders the card correctly. I tried the official twitter card validator, as well as heymeta.com, and metatags.io. All look good.

Can Cards be updated? #

even with a redirect?

I tried seting up a pinned tweet that uses a netlify redirect to always keep my latest post up to date. Again this one looks good in the validator, doesnt render the image on desktop, does render the image on mobile, but does not update. I have heard that you need to hit the card validator to update cards? I am not sure if this is true, but for me this is not even upating the card.
