Twitter's API keeps breaking, even for developers paying $42,000 (mashable.com)

Twitter's API issues have frustrated developers in each of Twitter's new API access tiers. Those with Basic or Pro plans — paying $100 and $5000 a month for API access, respectively — have experienced unannounced changes to their plans, numerous bugs, and often receive zero customer support. And developers shelling out for Twitter's Enterprise API Plan, which starts at $42,000 per month, are experiencing sudden outages and disappointing service considering the money they're paying.

While I am unsurprised, I do feel bad for the developers who are stuck dealing with the manchild who runs Twitter.

All the good ones got fired or quit by now anyway. The only people left are a bunch of "team players."

More likely the ones left are on some work visa and do not have as much freedom to leave.

Ding ding ding. It’s people who can’t leave because they’ll risk getting deported.
