My favorite podcast player + my favorite radio/podcast station = Future Greatness! (I hope)
I just came here to say how much I enjoyed reading the list of changes every time there is an update. There is always something super funny in there. I really hope they keep doing that!

HealthLoop | Software Engineer (Fullstack) | Mountain View, CA | ONSITE, REMOTE, VISA, http://healthloop.com/
At HealthLoop, we empower patients and enable medical care teams to achieve better healthcare. Imagine if your doctor could call you every day to encourage you, inform you, and keep track of you -- especially when something important or scary is going on. HealthLoop makes it possible for every patient to have that experience, and in doing so, drives better medical outcomes at lower costs for hospital systems.
We are looking for a versatile, experienced, full stack software engineer who values empathy, positivity, and personal connection just as much as clean architecture and code quality.

I'm one of those lucky software engineers in the Bay Area that happens to be married to a teacher and I can 100% confirm that they are real hustlers at what they do. Every time I get home after a hard day of work and listen to what her day was like it humbles me and makes me really appreciate the awesome job that teachers do in our society. She is always super tired but super happy and satisfied at the same time.

I want to echo on your message and also to thank you for contributing with a positive comment and not with a harsh one like most people often do.
I remember a few years ago when some of the stuff that Marissa was doing to reshape Yahoo's internal structure were being looked with good eyes and were being replicated in other companies (Bringing in remote people, focusing on some products, etc.) I guess we can all agree that in the end she didn't do the best job but maybe no one else could've done it differently. No way to know now.

As someone who has experienced a similar process through a relative of mine, is really interesting to hear a detailed story that not only talks about the process but also about the feeling of manufacturing outside of your home country. Finding the company that fit your product and your quality standards is extremely time consuming but once that serendipity happens you start feeling the snowball effect of the next items in the list. It really is all about finding the right match for your product.
I wonder if the Kaizen philosophy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaizen) applies for Chinese people as well. Can someone comment on this?

Not to mention that by the time that twitter needed to scale rails the framework itself was very different and a little less powerfull. That goes to ruby as well.
