I still believe in the amount of hate I got for saying this, that 50 people could build and maintain Twitter.

You know what it is? And it's the same. This is my summary of the hate I get on Hacker News. It's like... When I say I'm going to do something, they have to believe that it's impossible. Because if doing things was possible, they'd have to do some soul searching and ask the question, why didn't they do anything?

No, but the mockers aren't experts. The people who are mocking are not experts with carefully reasoned arguments about why you need 8,000 people to run a bird app.

You know, some people in the world like to create complexity. Some people in the world thrive under complexity, like lawyers, right? Lawyers want the world to be more complex because you need more lawyers, you need more legal hours, right? I think that's another. If there's two great evils in the world, it's centralization and complexity.

One of my favorite things to look at today is how much do you trust your tests, right? We've put a ton of effort in Comma and I've put a ton of effort in TinyGrad into making sure if you change the code and the tests pass, that you didn't break the code. Now, this obviously is not always true,

But the closer that is to true, the more you trust your tests, the more you're like, oh, I got a pull request and the tests pass. I feel okay to merge that. The faster you can make progress.

And Twitter had a... Not that. So... It was impossible to make progress in the code base.

The real thing that I spoke to a bunch of, you know, like individual contributors at Twitter. And I just asked, I'm like, okay, so like, what's wrong with this place? Why does this code look like this? And they explained to me what Twitter's promotion system was. The way that you got promoted at Twitter was you wrote a library that a lot of people used. Right?
