Помните, тут Илон Маск собирался купить Твиттер? Пишут, что он отменяет сделку, потому что Твиттер:
— Неправильно считал число фейковых аккаунтов
— Не смог предоставить сведения об объёме спама
— Открыто признал, что последние годы преувеличивал количество пользователей
Кстати, по последнему случаю в прошлом году был крупный штраф от Твиттера собственным же инвесторам по результатам судебного иска. Твиттер заявлял о росте месячной аудитории, но скрыл тот факт, что дневная аудитория стоит на месте. Что, кстати, интересно: люди как бы реже стали в Твиттер заходить, но при этом общее количество этих людей росло.
То есть, смотрите, крупная корпорация тоже, как и отдельный человек, может врать, делать хорошую мину при плохой игре, скрывать и преувеличивать и так далее. А ещё инвесторы на Западе умеют замечать такие штуки и штрафовать корпорации. Интересно, что у нас инвесторы, похоже, не умеют, иначе непонятно, почему у них не возникало вопросов к тем же публичным цифрам от ВКонтакте. Хотя в современных реалиях, видимо, ВК уже не стоит считать частным бизнесом, а скорее государственной корпорацией.
Не уверен, что для Твиттера срыв сделки с Маском это прямо так уж плохо. Маск там почти силой хотел его поглотить и навести свои порядки, весьма своеобразные, в соответствии с его характером. Но репутационно, конечно, эффект не самый приятный. Хорошо, что я забил на Твиттер и перестал им пользоваться.

🪐 In the star system V Hydrae, located about 1,300 light-years away in Hydra, astronomers have observed mysterious, high-speed "bullets" of hot gas being violently ejected from the dying red giant star. These jets blast out at speeds up to 800,000 kilometers per hour and appear at regular intervals, creating bizarre patterns of moving material that are among the strangest cosmic outflows seen in our galaxy. ✨

🪐 In the heart of the Centaurus galaxy NGC 5128, the supermassive black hole devours gas and dust, releasing twin jets of particles that stretch for over a million light-years into space. These jets, visible in both radio and X-ray light, show how black holes can not only swallow matter but also launch some of the most powerful streams of energy in the universe, shaping entire galaxies far beyond their event horizons—the invisible boundaries from which nothing can return. ✨

🌎 Deep within the constellation Cygnus, the black hole V404 Cygni occasionally unleashes powerful outbursts, ejecting matter at near light-speed in opposing jets. These rare events are so energetic that the black hole briefly outshines its entire host galaxy, offering a fleeting glimpse into the turbulent ballet around stellar remnants. ✨

🪐 In the heart of the galaxy IC 310, astronomers have observed a quasar that suddenly switches between a quiet state and violent outbursts, blasting powerful jets of particles close to the speed of light. Quasars are some of the brightest objects in the universe, powered by supermassive black holes devouring matter, and IC 310’s unpredictable behavior shows how even these cosmic engines can rapidly transform, lighting up entire galaxies in moments. ✨

🪐 The quasar PKS 0637-752, located about 7.8 billion light-years from Earth, shoots out a jet of particles more than 2 million light-years long—much farther than the diameter of our Milky Way. Quasars are the brilliant, active centers of young galaxies powered by material falling into supermassive black holes, and these enormous jets show how energy can be launched across intergalactic space by the universe’s most powerful engines. ✨

🪐 At the edge of the galaxy M87, astronomers have tracked knots of matter racing outward in narrow jets from its supermassive black hole at more than 99% the speed of light. These plasma jets are powered by the black hole’s intense gravity and spin, yet how exactly the black hole manages to launch such focused, high-speed streams remains one of astrophysics’ biggest black hole mysteries. ✨

🪐 In the center of the galaxy NGC 2392, also known as the "Eskimo Nebula," astronomers have detected fast, energetic jets of gas blasting outwards at speeds of over 200 kilometers per second. These jets, launched by the dying central star, punch through surrounding shells of glowing gas, creating intricate, layered patterns that make this nebula one of the most visually stunning and mysterious cosmic objects observed by the Hubble Space Telescope. ✨

🪐 In the galaxy PKS 2014-55, astronomers have discovered a cosmic oddity known as an "X-shaped radio galaxy." This galaxy's energetic jets of particles, powered by a supermassive black hole, create two pairs of huge lobes that form a striking X pattern, suggesting a sudden flip in the black hole's rotation or direction—one of the rarest shapes found among radio galaxies. ✨

🪐 In the spiral galaxy NGC 4945, located about 13 million light-years away in the constellation Centaurus, astronomers have measured jets of material shooting out from the galaxy's core at speeds approaching the speed of light—nearly 299,792 kilometers per second. This dazzling velocity, known as "relativistic speed," shows how cosmic engines powered by supermassive black holes can accelerate particles close to nature’s ultimate speed limit, producing jets that blaze across tens of thousands of light-years. ✨
