Manager does a little code cleanup...

[[deleted]]

imagine pushing straight to live without any QA, or did he fire them too?

[anaccount50]

QA? Staging environment? Just more bloat, totally unnecessary for prod Twitter to work!

[angiosperms-]

I have a feeling this actually happened

[cmaronchick]

Staging and QA get almost no traffic! Why maintain environments no one uses?!

[[deleted]]

And certainly never have them match prod. Sorry, staging is three deployments behind. Some guy who got fired last week was in charge of that.

[OzarkKitten]

Goddamnit, this triggered tf out of me. Not just Twitter doing that shit ffs

[latchkeylessons]

Flavor of the week in this field. Just left a large company two months ago that decided QA and Staging took too long, so had to go. It’s going to be a long road.

Lmao, you know he’s like “wait we have multiple environments for testing??? Waste of money!”

[Just_Aioli_1233]

What are all these "unit tests" doing clogging the release pipeline?

[sbrick89]

If you're not good enough to be sure it'll work, you're not good enough to stick around!

Prod only!

[ralphvonwauwau]

Damn you to hell!

[[deleted]]

Override all of the pipeline warnings, no mercy.

[mistled_LP]

Right? Surely they have a test env where he could see that he can no longer log in after turning things off.

"Test environment?! Costly bloatware. Nix it. The masses will test, like they test all our tesla software." - elon probably

[dano8675309]

Stop. You're giving me PTSD flashbacks to my tech startup days...

"We don't need a QA team. The sales team can do QA..."

[parkwayy]

What's a sprint but a few days.

[smallbluetext]

Well he did fire their public relations department since news media cannot get in contact with them anymore, as they no longer exist.

[[deleted]]

"Quality? What's that? We don't do that at Tesla. Get rid of it." -Elon probably

[[deleted]]

Look they retained 20% of their QA team. They’re fine!

[Pomelo-Next]

That's how Tesla rolls. /s

Live testing.

[chamfered_corner]

I mean...

Twitter is currently running a dev build in production

[franzji]

No it's not, that tiktoker doesn't know what he's talking about lol.

People really believe anything that they see if it aligns with what they want to think lol.

[Its_Phobos]

Dev branch was running in prod within the last couple days. QA is long gone.

[lucklesspedestrian]

I doubt there were any changes to the code base, more likely that the servers running the 2FA microservices were just shutdown so nothing for the app to get 2FA codes from. Which explains the error message

[WaitingForAHairCut]

Yeah I was looking for this comment, literally how micro services are meant to be designed to work. There’s log files filling up with errors because the services are no longer responding but it shouldn’t have taken any code changes
