Actually, my issue with a tweet is that it only has relevance for what.. a few hours? Maybe a day. After that it's only purpose for existing is a historical record of stupid things you probably should not have said.

So I'd love to have a self destruct ability that allows me to somewhat vent about something that's frustrating me and not have to worry about bitching about javascript being horrible (just an example) then applying to a nodejs gig and having to revisit that.

There's countless examples of people losing jobs and opportunities due to things said/done/take out of context and so on.

thats why people usually have a non identified twitter. Professional profiles are usually on instagram. I get you though. It's weird how we simply get used to vent to the whole world, but at the same time it's not like we want an answer xd
