Worked on top Alexa internet company systems. Main issue I had was I couldn't google my issues, custom solutions all the way down. Choice was ask someone, or dig through thousands/millions of lines of code to figure out why. 3rd option is rewrite.

lay person's perspective: i have issue with the within 72H, not >2H infra that has been kept running for ~14 years should basically work until something breaks right? then when something does break, if no one is in place to fix it then it will be broken for a long time

I work at a similar size tech co (Before layoffs) and we have incidents fairly regularly. The only reason things don't stay broken is because of responsive and skilled SREs. With the pace Elon is trying to set + people leaving a 2hr+ incident wouldn't be surprising.

It won't be a full outage, but subsystems will absolutely fail over the weekend. So, maybe ad metrics, or MFA again, or embeds will stop rendering. There will be a functioning ticker though.
