the guy who called elon out for talking nonsense about microservices got fired and then lectured about not trying to "one up" his boss, the world's richest man, who is just trying to "help and learn". grim

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).

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.

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.

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.

Twіtter API (real, not parody) (@fake_api)Mon, 14 Nov 2022 18:30 GMT

“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.

Perhaps not a monolith, but properly sized and scoped services. I’ve called this “macroservices” in the past ironically - maybe it’s time to use it seriously now lol. And there’s prior art here too …

Post details

Lol - we’ve seen this movie before, with Dropbox too. See my previous tweet: twitter.com/copyconstruct/… And “Macroservices” was a term I used sardonically in the past (and many of the blue checks here dunked on me for that). It’s now truly a thing - who’d have thunk?

I suspect you're about to find out what those microservices did and that you actually needed them for other stuff.
