Is calling a production release "shipping" a thing now?
- iLoveOncall 4y ago
  What do you mean by "now"? It's been the case for 15 years at least (I didn't code before that). You're making it seem like "releasing" is more accurately describing what happens when a feature is deployed in production than "shipping" but it's not the case.

  Yes? Since at least the 90s.

    I could see it in the 90s since things were actually mailed. Perhaps I have a mental block picturing the rolling release cycle of an internet app as shipping.

It is, however, Saturday afternoon in California. "Yes, Elon, the full self verifying feature was finished before your deadline."

> The team failed to ship by that original one week deadline (and a good part of them got fired, as promised). Assuming that's true, good luck retaining a single developer who's talented enough to get a less crazy job at any number of companies.

  Rumor was part of the firing criteria was LoC written... So, yeah, twitter is in a real bad state.

Esther's banner image is hilarious: >Be Bold. Get back up. Believe in yourself. All your buddies got laid off and you're working impossible deadlines? Looks like somebody's got a case of the Mondays! Really giving Mike Judge a run for his money right there.

  The picture of them sleeping in an office on Nov 2, yesh. Like, I get it, you maybe don't want to/can't lose your job but at what point do you retain some dignity and quit?
