Welp sextpanther is dead in the water. Due to the service provider they use for SMS messaging deciding sexual messages are no longer allowed. They are switching to website only. No more SMS which was a huge client converter. The war on sex work continues.

I want to dig in for a bit on this set of Slack replies from a Twitter manager talking about undoing some of the layoffs.

In the backchannels I have with software engineers, the act of firing a respected engineer after he publicly responded to Elon criticising Twitter’s engineering team - and explaining choices - broke the straw with many. It’s a chilling message. Contradict Elon and you’re fired.

My question on “who would work at Twitter, given options” now includes that of working there you should expect to receive criticism in public, and firing on the spot for responding in public. The pool of experience sw engineers who would choose Twitter just shrank some more.

Serious question: outside of outsized, unvested stock on the line or high compensation, why would any software engineer with options consider working at Twitter, going forward? Policies changing overnight and an owner acting visibly hostile towards staff who built Twitter.

Three senior software engineers fired in one day for criticising Elon’s statement on how Twitter’s backend works. The other two firings were now communicated on Twitter but also happened yesterday. I haven’t heard of an engineer being fired promptly over a tweet, much less 3.

12 years ago, Twitter’s office used a Mac Mini to tunnel into the servers. One day, an IT guy found it in the closet. “Anyone know who owns this?” “Unplug it. Someone will show up.” Everyone lost access to servers. Huge crisis. It became known as the “Load Bearing Mac Mini.”

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.

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.

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.

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.
