Ask HN: How would you improve this bash oneliner for deleting tweets?
7 by jamiehall | 2 comments on Hacker News.
Many people use tweet deletion services, which periodically remove everything from their Twitter timeline; I wondered if it could be done from a Bash command line. I wrote up my experiences as an explainer for nontechnical people: https://ift.tt/2y1gdzB... TL;DR, here is the oneliner I've been using: $ twurl "/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=YOUR_TWITTER_HANDLE&count=200 &max_id=$( twurl '/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=YOUR_TWITTER_HANDLE&count=200&include_rts=1' | jq -c -r '.[] | .id_str' | head -10 | tail -1) &include_rts=1" | jq -c -r '.[] | .id_str' | parallel -j 10 -a - twurl -X POST /1.1/statuses/destroy/{1}.json > /dev/null [Edit: I've put line breaks in there to make it more legible.] I'm curious if it's possible to do better. In particular: could this be more elegant? Is it possible to do it using common built-ins, instead of twurl and jq? Any suggestions or improvements would be very welcome!

Many people use tweet deletion services, which periodically remove everything from their Twitter timeline; I wondered if it could be done from a Bash command line. I wrote up my experiences as an explainer for nontechnical people: https://ift.tt/2y1gdzB... TL;DR, here is the oneliner I've been using: $ twurl "/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=YOUR_TWITTER_HANDLE&count=200 &max_id=$( twurl '/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=YOUR_TWITTER_HANDLE&count=200&include_rts=1' | jq -c -r '.[] | .id_str' | head -10 | tail -1) &include_rts=1" | jq -c -r '.[] | .id_str' | parallel -j 10 -a - twurl -X POST /1.1/statuses/destroy/{1}.json > /dev/null [Edit: I've put line breaks in there to make it more legible.] I'm curious if it's possible to do better. In particular: could this be more elegant? Is it possible to do it using common built-ins, instead of twurl and jq? Any suggestions or improvements would be very welcome!

Hello HN. I'm working at a place where, according to a very credible and personally-detailed report, has had a known positive Covid-19 case. It was later denied. It seems pretty clear what's going on. I'm now seeing my teammates become sick, and still it has been decided that we must not work from home, despite that being possible. It's hard to understand why critical human resources are being put at risk. It's hard to understand why I'm putting up with this. It's hard to understand why I feel like I'm cannot share more details about the situation. I really feel like I need to talk with someone about it. Anyone else? Thank you.
