You appear to have made a mistake in whose quotes you've tweeted: that first one isn't from @nexxylove.


sort by: page size:

Ah sorry, don't remember who was the original tweeter before the quote tweet.

That is her tweet, not “the tweet she quote tweeted”

There were several people mentioned in the one I’m referencing.


This is not my twitter account. I just was citing the tweet as source.

The seven words in the HN title are not the tweet.

Then it shouldn't have been in quotes (I see that it's since been changed).


So the tweet is mistaken? How do you know this?

Hardly. I followed the Twitter link given in your profile. The quoted retweet was at the top.

Post this on twitter and @nntaleb will correct you!

Who was the tweet from?

I was quoting the tweet :-)

Quote the tweet then.

There are tweets quoted in the article.

I can't seem to open the Tweet you provided, nor could I find the relevant tweet on the timeline. Can you fix your post?

My bad. I don’t know how to read Twitter.

Yes. Sorry for the confusion. The original tweet has now been removed and a correction has been posted instead.

What are you quoting? I don't see that sentence anywhere in parent's linked twitter thread

What did the tweet say?


I'd made the mistake on Twitter originally - I didn't see the tweet in my "Mentions" page, but it was still there on his feed.

Beside this link, the tweet does not contain more than I already included (and slightly clarified) in the submission title.
