		runawaybottle on Oct 6, 2021 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Twitch is hacked, and its source code leaked Sir (Madame?), I ask you one simple question: Was Twitch built in 10 years, or over just a few? Steam was built since I was in FUCKING high school. Im old now, well over 30. Apples, and blueberries. Bluebarry, Drewbarry, tomato, ToMaHtoH. Fuck their stupid ass streaming code, it’s a giant crud app, only their devops team can take credit for scaling, everyone else is not worth a shit, sorry, thats life, I gotta Leetcode too, and ur code isn’t worth me reading it, leaked or not).

Based on what I read of the ops code… don’t give them too much credit.

The thing I learned most from this leak is that the technology side plays very little part in the business being successful or not.
