Can you imagine how stressful this would be? It's one thing to get disappointing feedback data on bugs, UX, etc. Standing in front of thousands of angry people screaming at you to fix your software this instant? Yikes!!

- dmoy 9y agoThese are completely unrelated, no? One is about scaling the servers and stuff behind the scenes, this thing is about cellular data networks failing and dying.
- cptcobalt 9y agoHumans just aren't made for that sort of feedback. I couldn't imagine 10 or 100 people yelling genuine critical feedback like this at me -- let alone thousands. I imagine he didn't have a great day.
