"Given that I have spent the last several years studying/developing distributed databases..."

That doesn't make your opinion of what's wrong with Twitter any more valid than the crap TC keeps printing unless you happen to also have lots of internal details of the Twitter architecture.

true, but it makes me curious what brilliance someone bring to the table when they have nothing specific to say other than you are wrong. Also given that much of what I am talking about is running code, I at least know that it solves a major class of problems. If it doesnt apply to twitter it should be pretty easy to explain why.
