Elon Musk: Making Crap Cars since 2003

I’m not “high tech” and I used Jira to build a software & prof serv procurement approval process that worked reasonably well! No software is perfect, but yeah, I was happy to lever existing software to build a solution that project managers and executives could use wthout shooting me in face because frustration.

My company uses Jira pretty extensively, although I seldom get involved with it in my role. It always struck me as something that’s better for the product management folks rather than the people doing the actual work, but I begrudingly have to admit that it is pretty important to prioritize and focus product development, and Jira is at least decent at it.

I mean, porting to Mattermost can work (I personally haven’t used it, but know others who think it’s decent but not as good as slack on multiple areas) - but just shutting it down without a replacement is beyond LOLtastic of course.

My thoughts on Jira, sorry to @Jman220’s brother: https://ifuckinghatejira.com/

There are multiple preferable alternatives that also integrate well with Github, Gitlab and other relevant dev tools.

Caveat: haven’t used Jira for 4-5 years now, so it’s theoretically possible it’s not a dumpster fire anymore.

That’s all I see when I try to go to Twitter.com right now.

They turned of API access to 3rd party apps last week, you’ll need to use the web interface from now on.

That error was all I got when I went to twitter.com in my Chrome browser this morning.

Ah, it loaded for me before I responded.

lol the man launches features the same way he talks about future Tesla cars or “funding secured”, just saying whatever made-up bullshit is in his head as if the act of doing so manifests it into the world

Twitter hasn’t stopped working for me but I feel like I’m getting more and more random shit and its use as a news aggregator for me is dropping fast.

never, ever fire your entire sre team

turns out that i bet somewhere that twitter will have a major outage reported on their status page.

of course, elon fired their status page sre, and it’s just not getting updated. fml.
