I wonder if slashdot has got a form for this sort of thing yet ;)
Your twitter architecture will fail due to:
( ) Database replication issues
( ) Inability to prevent spam
(x) Immaturity of the libraries in your chosen language

- KirinDave 18y agoImmaturity? Erlang is far more mature and tested than most language runtimes we use. Why do people keep assuming Erlang is "new"?
- dant 18y agoIt was meant to be a lighted joke about how so many people are proposing ways to fix twitter it reminds me of slashdot a few years ago where people were trying to fix spam and they started responding to each suggestion with a list of flaws with Xs next to the ones that applied in that case. I'm not making a point about erlang, i dont really know anything about erlang, but maybe i touched a nerve so i apologise.
- jksmith 18y agoI got it. Downmodding your original post was silly.
