Cooked Crack Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Quote The change in question was part of a project to shut down free access to the Twitter API, Platformer can now confirm. On February 1, the company announced it will no longer support free access to its API, which effectively ended the existence of third-party clients and dramatically limited outside researchers’ ability to study the network. The company has been building a new, paid API for developers to work with. But in a sign of just how deep Elon Musk’s cuts to the company have been, only one site reliability engineer has been staffed on the project, we’re told. On Monday, the engineer made a “bad configuration change” that “basically broke the Twitter API,” according to a current employee. The change had cascading consequences inside the company, bringing down much of Twitter’s internal tools along with the public-facing APIs. On Slack, engineers responded with variations of “crap” and “Twitter is down – the entire thing” as they scrambled to fix the problem. Elon Musk was furious, we’re told. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Twitter insiders: We can't protect users from trolling under Musk Twitter insiders have told the BBC that the company is no longer able to protect users from trolling, state-co-ordinated disinformation and child sexual exploitation, following lay-offs and changes under owner Elon Musk. Exclusive academic data plus testimony from Twitter users backs up their allegations, suggesting hate is thriving under Mr Musk's leadership, with trolls emboldened, harassment intensifying and a spike in accounts following misogynistic and abusive profiles. Current and former employees of the company tell BBC Panorama that features intended to protect Twitter users from trolling and harassment are proving difficult to maintain, amid what they describe as a chaotic working environment in which Mr Musk is shadowed by bodyguards at all times. I've spoken to dozens, with several going on the record for the first time. The former head of content design says everyone on her team - which created safety measures such as nudge buttons - has been sacked. She later resigned. Internal research by Twitter suggests those safety measures reduced trolling by 60%. An engineer working for Twitter told me "nobody's taking care" of this type of work now, likening the platform to a building that seems fine from the outside, but inside is "on fire".

Oh my God, the justice system is unfairly stacked against the plebs, but this time it affected white Republicans! Time for some very specific reforms that will only benefit the one group we actually care about (because we need their votes and money!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corcaigh Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Grady Booch is one of the greats in the history of software engineering. The Elon fanboys are responding to his tweet questioning his credibility because he criticized Elon. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
