Ms. Yaccarino has made progress in some areas, including helping to mend Twitter's relationship with Google. That relationship frayed under Mr. Musk when Twitter partly stopped paying Google for cloud computing services. Twitter owed Google more than $42 million in unpaid invoices and was trying to stop its use of Google's products by the end of June, according to an internal memo obtained by The Times. Ms. Yaccarino spoke this month to Thomas Kurian, the head of Google Cloud, to resolve the issue and ordered the bill paid, a person familiar with the conversation said. She also persuaded Mr. Musk to embrace the new developments, the person said. 10:30 AM. Jun 29, 2023 · 34.8K Views 33 Retweets 17 Quotes 216 Likes 1 Bookmark :

Before Saturday, Smyte had been already showing signs of strain, following Elon Musk's deep cuts to Twitter's workforce. In December, Musk reportedly asked Twitter's trust and safety team why the automated system hadn't caught a Twitter Blue user who had been impersonating him to pump a crypto scam. The team told Musk the system had been unstable for a week, crashing "at least once a day." 19 Retweets 2 Quotes 31 Likes 4 Bookmarks

This is hilarious. It appears that Twitter is DDOSing itself. The Twitter home feed's been down for most of this morning. Even though nothing loads, the Twitter website never stops trying and trying. In the first video, notice the error message that I'm being rate limited. Then notice the jiggling scrollbar on the right. The second video shows why it's jiggling. Twitter is firing off about 10 requests a second to itself to try and fetch content that never arrives because Elon's latest genius innovation is to block people from being able to read Twitter without logging in. This likely created some hellish conditions that the engineers never envisioned and so we get this comedy of errors resulting in the most epic of self-owns, the self-DDOS. Unbelievable.
