Twitter’s Strategy: Clean Up the House First
If Twitter’s (TWTR) latest quarterly results contained any lesson, it was that the company is prioritizing cleaning up its platform over driving user growth. As if losing a million monthly users in the second quarter wasn’t enough, Twitter went on to say that its number of monthly users could fall further in the third quarter due to a confluence of factors, including its crackdown on fake accounts and the stricter privacy rules that took effect in Europe in May. Facebook (FB) blamed Europe’s new privacy law for its slow user growth in the second quarter. Twitter has been shutting down automated accounts set up with malicious intentions, such as spreading hate speech and false news.

[$$] Is it time to update literature’s classics?
New translations and adaptations for the stage have proliferated in recent decades, and an increasing number of novelists are also finding inspiration in these ancient texts, drawn by their universal themes, timeless characters and contemporary relevance, be it politics and warfare, or issues of gender and identity. Pat Barker’s new novel, The Silence of the Girls, a feminist revisioning of The Iliad, continues her exploration of the deep emotional scars of warfare on both combatants and civilians. The Regeneration Trilogy, which brought Barker literary fame in the 1990s and won her the Booker Prize in 1995, focused on men’s experiences in the first world war.
