A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

This is what happens when you don't pay your cloud hosting providers. They start throttling you before cutting you off entirely.

They're frantically trying to get Twitter capacity down to match the current throughput. It has nothing to do with scraping.
