Ah, I read that Twitter thread a few days (weeks?) ago and it was much longer. As far as I remember, it started with someone asking Twitter ops people, former and current, to share some stories about things that went spectacularly wrong.
It contained a lot of Twitter ops battle stories, some very interesting. I was pretty impressed to read Twitter internals in the given level of detail, but now it seems that the thread that held them all together is protected (probably didn't expect it to be so popular, or just wanted to continue more privately).
- exikyut 8y agoAww. If only there was an archive of it somewhere... (I'm curious if there is)
- liquidgecka 8y agoAnd yet I bet nobody mentioned the "fire rain" in our first data center, the load bearing mac mini, or the surprise Snoop Dog visit/party! =)
- anyfoo 8y agoHah, I don't think anybody has, but I'd love to hear those stories!
