In the unlikelihood you've been using Twitter to log onto other websites (OAuth et al), now it might be a good idea to stop doing that.

I hoped this site wasn’t gonna die but the speed of its decline is frankly terrifying. Musk firing clearly incredibly knowledgable staff *in public* while hacking at the site with a machete. The god awful features, rushed out, cancelled, then reinstated is madness.Andy Bell (@piccalilli_)Mon, 14 Nov 2022 20:22 GMT
If this place burns down tomorrow, I want to say how thankful I am to have had this time with you. You all are such a blessing in my life. I treasure being able to share my ups and downs and sideways adventures with you. Thank you for being incredible. ❤️

Nancy Pelosi is 82. She just led House Democrats to an unexpectedly good midterms outcome. Media’s first question is when she’ll retire. Mitch McConnell is 80. He just led Senate Republicans to a humiliating defeat. Not one question about when he’ll step aside.Kaivan Shroff (@KaivanShroff)Sun, 13 Nov 2022 18:57 GMT
twitter is now being run by the guys that post on the orange site about how they could build twitter in a weekend

The hypocrisy is pretty tedious to point out at this point but elon musk number 1 free speech guy hiding negative replies to his posts is really funny

Elon: let me just flip this switchy thingy here it can't be anything but "bloat" Twitter: *all of two factor ID gets turned off unless you're using authenticator app* This is what has actually happened today.

Downloading my data just in case. It’s sad to think we might lose this platform - I’ve made so many friends and I’m grateful for the platform I’ve had.

“Oh weird. I tried to unblock you but it seems they must have shut down the microservice that handles unblocking.”

If there’s someone you wanted to block on Twitter but couldn’t bring yourself to, consider doing it now. If they bring it up you can blame it on Twitter being broken.

Don't log out of Twitter if you have 2FA. The microservice for it has been shut down. You won't be able to log back in.

It was a useful way to provide visibility via attribution for third party clients, like Tweetie (which was acquired and became the Twitter iOS app) or Tweetdeck (RIP). It was also a useful status indicator (e.g. whether the tweet was sent via desktop or mobile).Chris Messina 🐀 (@chrismessina)Mon, 14 Nov 2022 15:49 GMT
I could have told him that. But then I was around back when it was a very open platform with third party clients, APIs, tweetups, and a whole lot more. It does feel like there's some history being ignored and lost here.Paul Johnston - current focus: moving electrons (@PaulDJohnston)Mon, 14 Nov 2022 16:33 GMT

If you're a sw engineer: today could hardly get more interesting. Shutting down microservices in bulk is next up today. Now we know why the Git freeze was instituted a few hours earlier. As said before, this is the kind of stuff that we've not seen in public, at this scale.twitter.com/elonmusk/statu…Gergely Orosz (@GergelyOrosz)Mon, 14 Nov 2022 16:09 GMT
Sure but it was also doing that last week as well, and it was fine. Are you sure the problem isn't that you fired everybody who made it work? twitter.com/elonmusk/statu…Tom Eastman (parody) (@tveastman)Sun, 13 Nov 2022 18:47 GMT

This is especially true as more features and systems which build on old systems in unexpected ways are added. That’s just part of the job.

“This code is a mess and it’s a wonder any of it even works” is the view of most people working on any software that’s more than a couple of months or years old, at the latest. This isn’t some huge indicator of a bad team or bad engineering.

Mad enough to freeze their advertising, but not enough to do the right thing by making insulin more accessible to people dependent on it to literally stay alive.
