He's proposing a ridiculous solution that will have the exact opposite effect of what he wants.
The only thing in common with the Steve Jobs clip is that both interactions are somewhat confrontational. Jobs is talking about how the user experience is important and engineering is secondary, Musk tries to solve Twitter's problems by asking the engineers to rewrite things that already work fine.
- TigeriusKirk 4y agoSo the current stack supports a high velocity of features?
- dzhiurgis 4y agoGeohot mentioned 3TB of codebase and resigned basically because he wanted to refactor shit while elon wants featurezzzz
- guax 4y agoAt Twitter scale. What stack would? Every new feature needs to work for 200m people in 100s of languages, across devices and browsers. Tell me what stack can support uncautious throw anything at the wall strategy. Hell tell me one team of 20 people that can do that.
