Tweetbot has been down for days because twitter is a shitshow. Always said that if I couldn’t use tweetbot, I wouldn’t use twitter. Can’t wait for 🐘ivory@tapbots.social to be ready. I’m a guaranteed subscriber.

So we get yet another new Tory Prime Minister once these wishes don’t come true?
As your Prime Minister you need to know what my focus will be, so you can hold me to account directly on whether it is delivered. These are my five promises 👇

When the staff were fired/walked out the door, they took with them all of this context. The existing code can tell you what it does and how, but it can’t tell you why.

Legacy and heavily used systems have decision accumulation over the years: some decisions were made because of the technology available at the time, some due to a feature need, some due to dependency management, some were made to make the system more secure or to test it.

The "this is a forum mod meltdown, at scale" joke keeps popping up because it's not a joke — it's recognizing a persistent pattern in bad governance of a mediated social space.
