I'm getting closer and closer to abandoning this site except maybe for occasional tech-related news.

Please find me on Mastodon @[email protected] if you miss my shitposts!

DMs are open!

I am looking for a new position!

Me:
* years and years of site reliability work
* building startup SRE teams from scratch
* deep experience building compute and network infrastructure on AWS and GCP
* Kubernetes!

I want to help create reliable and maintainable teams!

@lcooney I'm so sorry.

[Karen Bruner (parity) @fuzzyKB]

@briggsl I'm so sorry. What a special girl.

@mekkaokereke I'm sure all this Apple tax hand-waving is not a ruse to deflect from issues within Twitter, not at all

I really have a hard time believing there's anything Kelsey *can't* do

[Karen Bruner (parity) @fuzzyKB]

@richburroughs 100% complicit

[Dan Luu @altluu]

I find it interesting how Twitter has disproportionately fired (not just laid off) ICs+managers who were considered to be the most respected and most effective at the company

I suspect it's not on purpose and that there's a confounding variable, but it's still an odd thing to do

@yvonnezlam Just when I think he can't get any worse

I'm on Twitter much less but noticing way more glitches, not sure how many are Android client side or server side

Elon wouldn’t know that the shirts were created by a Black Employee Resource Group at Twitter called Blackbirds in 2016. ERGS was one of the first things he got rid of with. Blackbirds sold these shirts to fundraiser to create safe spaces for Black ppl on the internet and in tech

[Karen Bruner (parity) @fuzzyKB]

This is what Elbo is mocking now, from the Black ERG he dismantled

[Karen Bruner (parity) @fuzzyKB]

@pleia2 I hear that

[Niall Murphy @niallm]

seems, uh, bad if true

[Karen Bruner (parity) @fuzzyKB]

@ChrisShort New Twitter is already in violation of previous FTC consent decrees. That $5 billion Facebook fine wasn't fun for a profitable company. Think what that would do to a company already billions in debt with no viable revenue path.

@courtneynash It is so predatory and exploitative. And this is behavior from people so many people laud.

[Courtney Nash @courtneynash]

Excellent research-backed thread. Not only do those who stay have no choice, they will also eventually burn out.

[Karen Bruner (parity) @fuzzyKB]

@chabis_ch @richburroughs Exactly! Without intentional effort on the part of many people, it's too possible to picture a new form of segregation, which is terrifying.
