Oh wait! I read it again... I think it means the FTX guy is deleting incriminating tweets... but adding new tweets at the same time... so his total # of tweets stays the same & he doesn't trigger... Something with bots😁
"Something with bots" = an automated archiving/alert bot that routinely crawls his page/tweet data looking for content changes in the form of new or deleted tweets, which triggers whenever the metadata counter representing "total number of tweets" is a number greater than or less than the previous crawl's number.
In other words, bot commanded to create another archive if changes in his tweet data are detected. Changes in tweets are (rudimentarily) defined by comparing how many tweets exist now compared to the last time the bot crawled. Outcome is: If different > then archive. Else > do nothing.
Sorry to be that person, but can someone ELI5? 😬
I'm apparently in the same kindergarten class as you & would like help as well🐸

Hope that clarifies.
Thank you! TIL🐸 That's fascinating... meant sincerely, not sarcastically👌
