ML author Burkov trolls his own X "secret tricks" thread with a single middle finger
burkov · x · 2026-11-13
@burkov, the well-known ML book author, had posted a classic bait: "I've been using X for 28 years and only just discovered you can screenshot a tweet from Copy Link — top 10 secret tricks coming (number 7 is my favorite!)." He has now responded to his own post with a single middle-finger emoji, self-deprecatingly completing the joke's reversal.
A humorous self-troll moment from a recognizable AI community figure.
