Is IAM a thing outside of Amazon Web Services?
Anyway, most of the teams you mentioned have been super-lazy guys installing service packs and knocking off at 3PM at the places I've worked, but Twitter might be the one place you actually need more infrastructure/SRE people than anything else. It's not like their software is much. It's all about volume and availability.

We should just create a social media site in the Amazon review section for ceramic teapots.

Yeah, anything that gets you off the internet, as you aren't built for it.

The IMDB comment section for 40 Year Old Virgin was seriously a social media site for incels / MGTOW before those things were well-known. Then one day IMDB just nuked their comment feature altogether.

Route switch networking, load balancing, virtualization, infrastructure security, servers, containers, SQL, orchestration, IAM, and monitoring are all critical areas and probably separate teams. And there are probably even more distinct teams at a company of twitters scale.
Twitter runs multiple of its own data centers also. They literally need people helping to keep the HVAC running.
Luckily for Elon, this may be the first time since 2008 that there is talent availability with the layoffs from other tech companies.

No, he is doing a sped run on how to turn a company around. Twitter was a big pile of shite whose employees weren't working and were stealing paychecks. They were all lazy. I am sure he was horrified when we walked in there and said "frick this shite".
They only need 500 workers to run that place. 100 can do it on a skeleton crew.

What is it about you freaks that makes you want some random dipshit you don't even know to be some kind of God? What kind of experience do you have that tells you Twitter needs 100 employees?

How do you make a small fortune in social media?
Start out with a large one.

The purge was necessary. It'll take a while to learn who you can trust. The strong will survive and they'll be taken care of. Deal with it haters.

think his point was Elon isn’t the business genius many here believe him to be. Twitter is a cesspool, but a so-called genius paid $45 billion for it and didn’t seem to have a coherent plan to make it a free speech oasis.
Don’t care. If Twitter ceases to exist, good riddance. It’s his money, he can do whatever he wants.

OML does know some things.
It is also true that OML has no clue the things he doesn't know. That's OML's biggest flaw.

He’s getting the shitty employees to quit.
If he needs, he can replace them some of the thousands layed off in Silicon Valley recently. But I bet he won’t need that many of them.

What Elon is shedding the light on is how many people think that companies only exist to give them money. They don’t actually want to earn a paycheck. There are 1000’s of engineers and programmers that will jump at the chance to work for Elon and this purge while very painful has a chance to be a major breakthrough for the company.

lol...how do you know this?
Maybe it's going exactly as he wants it.
I'm gonna guess, that when billionaires spend billions on things - they have plans, as they generally didn't get to their lot in life by moving haphazardly.
But, you keep reading the interwebz and believing Elon is CrAzY!!!

Twitter was a woke fascist echo chamber purging differing viewpoints and artificially promoting propaganda. Either he fixes it or breaks it. Either way it’s better than it was.

Anyone that feels as passionately about some random Twitter employees as OML does absolutely, positively, needs to log off. LINK

Why not? The platform is extremely simple.
