Monetization
Estimated X creator earnings
$441–$1,059 in the last 30 days
From 88.2M views on @paulg's original posts in the last 30 days.
Rewards eligibility: likely
Rough estimate. X publishes no payout rate, so this assumes about $5–12 per 1M original-post impressions from reported creator payouts. Only Premium viewers’ impressions count, so real payouts can be much lower.

There were a lot of things that only worked because there's a limit to the rate at which humans can operate. We're about to find out what all of them are, as they break.

In England, students choose just a few subjects (usually 3) to study in the last 2 years of high school, so gender differences in their interests become more visible than in the US. https://t.co/Bd46RfSBzv

I just did office hours with a startup that needed (among other things) a new name. I asked what adjective scientists use to describe the situation their technology is designed to induce. The .com was untaken. If only it was always like this.

Don't own the .com? The good news is, there's no such thing. "The .com" is just the only .com you've been able to think of so far.

Jessica bought me a fabulous watch from my favorite vintage watch shop (Somlo) and conspired with them to have it in the window when I walked by. Of course it was the first one I noticed. But instead of a description, the label said "Happy early birthday Paul." I still didn't get that it was for me, because one of the guys who works there is called Paul. I turned to Jessica and said that he must have a birthday coming up too, but why would they put his watch in the window? Then I noticed she was grinning like the Cheshire cat.
