The pattern of the gap between the times that they are tweeted is somewhat interesting too... 1 minute, 4 minutes, 1 minute, 4 minutes, 1 minute, 4 minutes, etc

- stbullard 14y agoThe gap for https://twitter.com/googuns_staging https://twitter.com/googuns_staging is 5 minutes; that account was started the same date as @googuns_prod: 28 July 2009. I would guess googuns_prod is the output from two of whatever googuns_staging is, running at a 1-minute offset, with each thing identifying itself with the last nine digits: 200000000 and 350000000 for the production thing, ba0000000 for the staging thing.
- zacharypinter 14y agoInteresting... If we ignore the zeros and the 20/35/ba, it looks very much like the 7 digit short identifier of a git sha1. Maybe it's just announcing a continuous deploy script saying that a particular build made it to prod/staging?
- tshadwell 14y agoThat... is the most plausible suggestion so far.
