Oh dear

Listen, if you are on Twitter and you haven't recently downloaded your data, you really need to. Like, now. With the recent layoffs, I am willing to bet money that Twitter is going to implode very soon. Maybe not permanently, but dramatically, and very, very soon. Like "Liz Truss vs a head of lettuce" soon. I base this quite simply on knowing the kind of s--- my wife deals with every day, and listening to people on the news who have talked to Twitter employees about the site at all. Not only do I think there's some Thing that will cause Twitter to puke all over itself like a 19yo who just discovered wine coolers, but I think there are multiple Things, and they are not in the future. They are occurring right now. They fired the people who know which software licenses are up for renewal next. They fired the people who know that this cache needs to be manually emptied, and yeah they should have written a script for it but there were so many other projects that it was easier for Bob to just manually do it on Friday mornings while on his 2nd cup of coffee. They fired the people who know to not poke this thing in that way bc this thing works in a non-standard fashion, but it works, so even though the software manual says "poke it," don't do that. They fired the people that know that this queue getting up over X number of tickets means it starts eating tickets and erasing half the data you need to fix issues, so you have to compress the ticket numbers at least every 2 days with an ad hoc utility script that Jane wrote after your team discovered this issue. Not all of the institutional knowledge is gone, but a lot of it is, and once that knowledge is gone, it's not coming back. Once that knowledge is gone, things unravel quickly at an institution that size. Whatever happens on the social end of things - and that's a f------ mess - make your contingency plans for not losing touch with people now, and get downloads of your s---. Now. Not later. This will not fizzle out like LiveJournal. I'm willing to bet that it will simply cease to be one day soon. It might come back once it disappears. I'm just not counting on it, and neither should you. Fun thing: downloading an archive of your data from Twitter requires... Twitter to be working, and they say it's going to take at least 24 hours for the zip file to become available (and I have NO doubt that this specification was made back when they had the full staffing load, rather than Jason the Intern, Eric the Crawler and Timmy the (actual) Dog who are probably all that remains of the previous staff... because all the good people who didn't get sacked have almost certainly expedited their resignations). Get your data early, folks. It will almost certainly take longer than advertised. #W How to access and download your Twitter data | Twitter Help #W Learn about your Twitter data, what types of information y access, and how to download it. In case you're like me and didn't know how to download your Twitter data. Jim Redmond @jredmond 19h So close. There are actually about eight of those tiny little pieces holding everything up, and yes, all those teams got slashed. Cassie Evans @cassiecodes. 1d Man there's really an xkcd for everything Show this thread 121 Twitter's infrastructure DE 12,489 Jim Redmond @jredmond-19h Oh, and while the press is focused on how advertisers will handle changes to content moderation, I really think they should be focused on this: 9 Nobody is going to advertise on *or subscribe to* a site that isn't reliable. And a whoooole bunch of SREs got laid off today. 19 OFO 17.3K Jim Redmond @jredmond-19h For the record, "SRE" stands for "site reliability engineer". These are the people who keep this place functional - who make sure your tweet is published and your DMs delivered and your Space usable etc. - and they are, quite literally, the backbone of this company. 1 207 2,045 Jim Redmond @jredmond-19h It's a tough job, but we had - past tense! - a world-class team of SREs keeping this place operational, even when whole datacenters go down (and then Queen Elizabeth dies, spiking traffic dramatically). 13 22 117 Jim Redmond @jredmond This Tweet is unavailable. Learn more 12 75 Jim Redmond @jredmond-19h We had laudable uptime, to the extent that Twitter was where people came to see if something else was down. (Case in point: twitter.com/ twitter/status...) Our stuff wasn't perfect, but we kept it going. 1,685 31 12 With skeleton crews of SREs, though, * incidents will be more frequent * incidents will be more severe #WHAT 1,371 * incidents will last longer * incidents will be more likely to repeat This is not sustainable. 4:46 PM -11/4/22 - Twitter Web App 166 Retweets 17 Quote Tweets 1,651 Likes Jim Redmond @jredmond-19h Replying to @jredmond An integral bit of working knowledge that wasn't handed over during the layoffs 17 35 ↑ I'm still here, and I'll still do my job while I'm here, but I don't plan to stick around. Perhaps that's the point - if you get rid of those expensive, experienced reliability types then you can save a bit of cash up front - but it's a deeply, deeply shortsighted point at best. 1 175 16 2,029 Jim Redmond @jredmond-19h Anyway. I didn't intend to write a thread like that, but, well, here we are, in a bloodbath decorated with salute emojis. If you're hiring SRES, please start with "impacted" Tweeps (not me); they're a talented bunch who got a bad deal. #LoveWho You Worked With 1,471 7 17 89 Jim Redmond @jredmond-17h ...did not expect this much response to my venting. Thanks for the comments and support, everyone. I'll reply as I can, but I am still babysitting a couple processes on the back end. Be good to each other, k? 1,316 ↑ SRES and Ops people are the ones who keep sites up and running (naming depends on the company and time period). convention for the job Ops I worked in team was the only one to only lose 1 person. Out of Because we kept the site running. We were the ones who went wrong. Not even away. If it didn't get fixed, the severity. we were protected from that layoff because we were essential to the site But continuing to operate. And Twitter just gutted the team that does that for them. for a company years ago that laid off about ½ the staff. Our a team of about 15. got woken up in the middle of the night when stuff for stuff that directly impacted users - at least right it would impact users at some point, depending on

OK, so I made this meme on day one of Elon's Twitter acquisition, but I need to post this here before it's timeliness runs out.

Every Twitter user You have freed us! Oh, I wouldn't say "freed", more like "under new management."

That's been part of Twitter TOS since the early days. Impersonation with a verified checkmark, doubly so.
