Furor over platform’s verified profiles may have done some good, but challenges still plague the site after a mass worker exodus
Even without a coding mistake by a shoestring staff, the system can run only for so long without upkeep, tweeted, a site reliability engineer who left the company three years ago. “The fact that Twitter continues to work is a testament to the thousands of engineer years spent building that reliability. But as engineers, we know that failure is coming without continued investment to protect against the next thing.
After Thursday’s mass exodus, Musk announced that Twitter’s San Francisco headquarters would be shut from Friday to Monday. Then reversed that missive and called for “anyone who actually writes software” to report to Twitter’s headquarters by Friday afternoon and work Saturday. That came after Tesla announced a recall of nearly 30,000 Model X cars over an issue that may cause the front passenger air bag to deploy incorrectly. That announcement caused Tesla shares to drop nearly 3% to a near two-year low.
