It's crazy how large complex feats of engineering are hard to maintain when you fire most of the people who understood how it worked.
Wait a second. I was told that those people were all just grifters who did nothing, and that the platform would be rock-solid even without them. Do you mean to say that… that I’ve been told wrong?
yes my dear sir
what's impressive is that they still do have many hundreds of costly engineers and their site is now shit. Mastodon on the other end is working pretty well, being administrated by a bunch of volunteer sysadmins. i like this 😇
Yup.
What a shit show.
