The new owner, Donny "Downtown" Donaldson, wants us to personally assure you that, while unfortunate, this downsizing is both epic and for the win, and that it in no way reflects you yourself being fail or owned. Furthermore *sighs, pushes plastic baggie across the table* as a gesture Mr. Donaldson would also like us to present you with this bacon, which is similarly epic and for the win. HR REP 2: It's very epic.

World cup might legitimately destroy twitter, especially since Elon Musk is killing all the back-ups.

Either way, it's a beautiful example of the high quality of Musk’s management style that has made his companies the enormous successes that they are as long as you don't look at what they produce.

“I’m really working at the absolute most amount that I can work from morning til night, seven days a week. So, this is not something I’d recommend, frankly,” he said. What is that, ~10 hour days during the winter? Lmfao, get bent failman. And by “work” you mean being catered to 24/7, shitposting on the internet, and making decisions that have terrible outcomes because you. just. can’t. stop. and. listen? Insert all the comments about people that actually, you know, work for a living. 2 jobs sometimes even. This comment alone has pushed me from “lol this is funny” to “gently caress this guy”.

CommieGIR posted:80% of their outsourced staff, but yeah that's a significant amount. Yeah, realised after I posted it wasn't full-time staff. But, a quick google tells me that Musk has fired at least 3800 of the 7500 full-time employees and 4400 of the 5500 contract employees. So, that's 8200 out of 13000 total staff. Which is 63%. Let's call it ⅔ of everyone. Fukken lol.

Ups_rail posted:Sorry for the double post Systems act differently under heavy load, developers have been forced to make rapid changes, and they are lacking a bunch of people with key knowledge. I could see a database being corrupted, and them being utterly hosed because there is no redundancy. They might have to do a major rollback (which would cause further problems) or take down twitter while they try and figure what is loving up the system.

Yeah Twitter is almost certainly a very complex beast with a lot of legacy code that doesn’t do anything, at a glance. But of course if you fire over half of the staff and most of your contractors, the pool of people in the company who can say “oh man don’t turn that off, it’s important” is dwindling to zero. (Then again, Musk would fire anyone who would say that to him anyway.) I have no doubt twitter’s code is not well optimized in some ways. The answer to that is a slow, carefully planned infrastructure revamp over the course of years, not just turning random microservices off. That all comes to a head during big events such as the World Cup where every mitigation and loan balancing strategy are leaned on to the absolute limits.
