The service is crumbling before our eyes Yeah I’m seeing random failures all over web Twitter. Wont load or leave search. Fails to load some images. It’s super laggy, way worse than before.

Just use VBA SQL, its included in Office 365 and you don't need those pesky servers, infrastructures, and SREs. Just have like 10 desktop computers running Access, they can store all the tweets. No, I won't take compensation for the title of "main computer dude at storage unit we are renting", I'm just glad to be working on the cutting edge of technology to better humanity.

I'm actually surprised the Nitter frontend is still functional. I haven't mentioned it anywhere out of fear that it too would implode.

I'm not saying Musk was solely responsible for the success of Tesla or SpaceX, but he had to have some management chops to start two successful technology companies. It's hard for me to square that guy with the edgelord Troll King that Musk is today

Edmund Sparkler posted:Even from working lovely retail jobs, I learned that someone coming in as an outside hire to a manager or even supervisor position is usually going to be a disaster. Usually, the problem was arrogance and entitlement that they want to mold things to their ideal while making zero effort to learn the company culture, procedures, or internal politics.

I'm pretty sure he did that a while ago. Shortly after he bought twitter, I remember seeing that twitter's policy was almost immediately revised to remove trans-related rules.

TulliusCicero posted:Musk bought Tesla It’s not so much a talent as it is the fact that if you have, effectively, infinite money, you get to take up as much space in the media as you want. Which, in his case, is a lot, making it all the more likely that paint eating chuds on the lookout for a rich idol comes across him.

learnincurve posted:Every time I start to feel sorry for the twitter employees I remember something horrible that they are responsible for. Like that time in 2020 when all the open intersex people were hounded off the site and ate permabans by terfs and a complicit mod team. id assume that moderators and other forward-facing staff who'd have anything to do with user interaction were probably a pretty small percentage of overall staff. the devs, security, network techs, accounting, marketing etc. employees wouldn't have anything to do with who gets banned or not and i wouldn't be surprised if there was a 10:1 ratio there but most of the employees on the tech/marketing&PR sides of things probably already have new jobs too the people who probably really got hosed here the most are food services contractors and stuff like that. the people who were years deep into contract work for Twitter they zero reason to expect would vanish, and got blindsided by the entire support market for a multi-billion dollar company's several thousand well-paid employees evaporating almost overnight

How is the Trump poll going? I want to see results but don't want to encourage this billionaire man child either way If he does bring him back I'm shutting it all down. I left Facebook like *that*. Twitter is not even close Sucks for all those govt and corpos that made Twitter their first line of customer communications for emergencies and such
