    This is why it cracks me up every time when someone is praising Elon for “cutting slack” when firing all those twitter employees. Yes, twitter did not implode immediately. Turns out, people can build software that is stable enough to run in maintenance mode. But good luck dealing with new issues cropping up.

      People too far removed from IT/Dev team can become disillusioned as to what they do.

      If you have a good dev team, you won’t hear about them doing anything until shit hits the fan. If you haven’t heard from them?… They’re doing their job. Leave them alone.

      Right, it’s imploding one microsystem deployment at a time.

      If Twitter was a monolith, I bet the company would have already folded.
