"…only one site reliability engineer has been staffed on the project…On Monday, the engineer made a “bad configuration change” that “basically broke the Twitter API” according to a current employee."

One of the fundamentals of #SiteReliabilityEngineering is that "human error is never the cause of outages". By this we mean that if a human /can/ make a mistake which takes out a system, it's not their fault.

A no blame culture is important for a well-functioning team.

Everyone has the right to breathe clean air, inside and outdoors.

We need to fight both COVID-19 and #climate change.

If Twitter is sinking like the Titanic, then Mastodon community servers are the lifeboats. And there are not enough lifeboats. 🤷🏿‍♂️

Don't just call people still on the Titanic foolish as you row away. Make more lifeboats, and make them easier to climb into! 👍🏿
