A tweet is cheap.
I will move to Golang for a week.

Assuming you're still looking at Twitter for reasons other than @rustlang, the notice will be on Twitter when the tweets start again.
This is a "who shaved the barber?" puzzle; that situation should be forbidden by the content of the tweet - they're not allowed to tweet again until after they've given notice.
your noticing the notice and them resuming tweets are asynchronous. If we want to bring some logic inferences the only thing we can say is that their next tweet must say something about restarting to tweet.
Actually no, the only thing we could hold them up to is that before any tweet on the usual topics there should be a notice that normal tweets have begun again. It would be perfectly reasonable to now defend their position without a prior notice that they are going to also defend their position.

#33Non-violent protesters were getting killed by Hong Kong's police in broad daylight for the last few months. Were the Rust people not aware of them?
There are no reports of people killed by the police in the HK protests. Source: U.S. Department of State https://www.state.gov/reports/2019-country-reports-on-human-... "There were no credible reports that the government or its agents committed arbitrary or unlawful killings." Edit: hate to say that, but why instead of clicking the damn downvote button don't you go and actually check if there are recorded deaths?
You're using an outdated document as your source.
I will not post direct links. Instead, I invite you to browse tags like #HongKongPoliceTerrorism, #HongKongPoliceBrutality, #HKpolice, etc. on Twitter.
We all know not to trust COVID death counts from China. HK police brutality is something like that. We have video evidence of a few murders. As for the actual count, no one knows.

Re: Rustlang: “This account will pause tweeting until further notice”
#35Not seeing anything similar on /r/rust, or the official forum. This twitter account barely tweets at all, it's like they want to send a message, but don't want to actually inconvenience anybody.
Few things I don't get from seeing twitter today and deciding to delete it for good.
1. What does unfollowing every white person show?
2. Why are there people with a lot of followers aka influencers working like hired goon going under every post on multiple high profile accounts calling for unfollow because someone said something controversial? Why are they mentioning people unrelated to this to get them to unfollow?
Why are all of them following each other? It's pretty much a mob...it seems.
What does telling companies to unfollow a person, de-platforming a person from the developer community show? I am deeply concerned about the first part. Seriously, asking companies to unfollow you on twitter? C'mon, I can't be the only one who finds that ridiculous.
I get retweeting on your profile once but few people I won't mention spent literally their weekend doing this. Is this modern-day ex-communication?
3. Am I becoming racist or this guide is actually shit [0][1]

1] https://tatianamac.com/posts/white-guyde/
Why are there separate guides for different genders and races?
Why are so many prominent figures retweeting this and telling to follow? (just check retweets and replies)
Why are they still following white people after retweeting this?
What's even the point? Can someone explain how does this solve the issues if any?
What will be solved if you stop tweeting for a week or so?
All I know is that I am separating myself from the usual "dev" community. Insane shit everywhere and people are truly showing their colors when they retweeting calls to kill human life - be it a cop or not. And if you don't agree, they are taking you down from dev platforms - woah.

And many major tech companies (Apple, Google, YouTube, Bytedance) were censoring the HK protestors with China, Even when a protestor was shot with a live round on Facebook Live.
Sounds like double standards with the current action with tech companies.

#37I'm not even following the rationale. They're angry at Twitter? For what, exactly?
don't. It's pure virtue signaling to the extreme. If you need more example, look into js community. They are following a trend.

You're right, the document is outdated. I've searched further and while I did find a few instances of police shooting at protesters, I didn't find deaths.

Please do instead. And no, I don't think twitter is a reliable source, twitter is an information battleground, you should know it.
> HK police brutality is something like that.
HK citizens have all the means and the interest to spread knowledge of police brutality in their protests. I don't think the comparison with China and covid holds any water (even assuming that what you say about China's covid numbers is true, as "everybody knows" is not a proof).

Not to deemphasize the seriousness of an actual death, but the difference between shooting at protestors (especially if in a crowd, but I have not seen the video) and casualties is a matter of luck.
