Why Hasn't Twitter Crashed Yet?

This is a technical question really. With such deep layoffs, I think a lot of people expected that Twitter would fall apart as a service pretty soon. That hasn't happened, and the site and app, at least to me seems to be running perfectly fine. World Cup coverage has been totally normal.

Could some engineering folks chime in about how this is possible?
