About Twitter Profile Labels

Twitter uses visual identity signals like labels and badges on account profiles to help distinguish between various account types and to give more context about them. While some of these labels are generated by Twitter, others are the result of user activity. Here is a list of the labels and badges that are frequently seen on account profiles. Applied Profile labels by Twitter Checkmark in Blue The blue checkmark can indicate one of two things: either that a user's account has been verified according to Twitter's previous verification standards (active, notable, and authentic), or that the user has an active subscription to Twitter Blue, the company's new subscription service that launched on iOS on November 9, 2022. The active, notable, and authentic criteria that were applied in the previous process will not be reviewed for accounts that receive the blue checkmark as part of a Twitter Blue subscription.

New Facebook Feed Customization Options

Facebook's main function is to facilitate communication and community interaction. People are engaging more frequently through open and relatable material, such as fresh recipes or nearby walks. Facebook suggests posts from authors and communities you might not be familiar with for you to enjoy and debate along with updates from your friends, Groups, and Pages. Through machine learning, what you see in your Feed is specifically tailored to your interests.

Customize Your Facebook Feed

 

In order to help you find the information that is most pertinent to you, we are unveiling new ways for you to tailor what appears in your Facebook Feed. On posts from the people and communities you're connected to as well as posts that Facebook suggests to you, you may now choose to show more or less of them. The ranking score for that post and those similar to it will momentarily increase if you choose to Show more. Its ranking score will temporarily drop if you choose Show less. We are enhancing the intelligence and responsiveness of our artificial intelligence systems by providing more options for incorporating direct feedback into Feed ranking.

This will occasionally be displayed on Feed posts. Soon, you'll be able to select whether to display more or fewer postings by tapping the three dots in the top right corner of the post. Additionally, we are beginning to test this feature in Reels.

We're also looking into ways to let you control how much content from your linked friends, family, groups, pages, and public figures appears in Feed. Feed Preferences contains these tools as well as Favorites, snooze, and reconnect.

You may see more of what you want and less of what you don't by using features like these to help you find more of the stuff that is valuable to you. We'll use direct input to iterate on our strategy as we do with every product update we make.

Site names are being introduced on Google Search

In order to make it simpler to understand which website is linked to each result, Search has introduced site names on mobile search results today. We'll also show you how to use structured data to specify your preferred site name. In addition to English, French, Japanese, and German, site names will soon be made available for mobile Google Search results in new languages.   To determine the domain name of a search result, Google Search uses a number of different resources. You can utilise structured data on your homepage to tell Google what the site name should be by specifying your favourite option. Go to the Site name documentation for further details on how to do this. For the most recent best practises, we also advise going over the favicon documentation once more. As long as the icon is at least 48 pixels wide and complies with the current favicon rules, it will be displayed on Search. As always, please let us know in the Google Search Central Help Community if you have any qu...

Introducing the PyTorch Foundation to Hasten AI Research Progress

Open collaboration has been crucial to the success of the PyTorch framework for AI research ever since we collaborated with the AI community to develop it in 2016. PyTorch is one of the top platforms for study and creation in the AI community, with thousands of contributors who have created more than 150,000 projects on it. PyTorch Foundation Mark Zuckerberg said today that the project will move to the recently established PyTorch Foundation, a nonprofit organisation that will be a part of the Linux Foundation, a technological consortium whose primary goal is the cooperative creation of open-source software. The establishment of the PyTorch Foundation guarantees that decisions will be taken for many years to come by a diverse group of board members in an open and transparent manner. Representatives from AMD, Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud, Meta, Microsoft Azure, and Nvidia will make up the governing council, which is expected to grow over time. Our Commitment to AI Research Driven b...
