So does any of this give any insight into what Musk is planning? Or is it all/mostly gobbledygook?

@mathlover It’s the current architecture, aka 25 microservices just to generate the Home timeline. Instead of just making it chronological.

@alex Ah. So it's basically a bird's eye view of Twitter's innards as of the moment. That makes sense.
I still have no idea what content hydration is.

@mathlover “Hydration” in programming is a general term that just means “filling with data” from any source.

I think it just means it’s getting that data ready to be consumed by the next thing in the chain.
