Can we please recognize that this is a holiday weekend and Elon rammed a big release forcing his engineers to come in and iterate multiple patches over the last 12 hours.

The arrogance of the guy is so huge, hubris does not touch him. Thoughts are with the programmers.

What I’m more surprised about is how gum and shoestring the twitter engineering is now a days. They put in no emphasis on doing deep divides into the code base and instead opt to do the simplest shortest fix. And it causes problems.

>>nashas+b91
Applying the simplest shortest fix can sometimes be a good method to synchronize the state of the code with management.

Instead of engineering trying to buffer and fix weird management decisions, this just exposes them.

>>starbu+ur1
From experience management really don't care about the state of the code or infrastructure. All they want to know is the soonest something can be done.

Elon strikes me as worse because he likes to think he understands what his engineers know.
