Curious if there's any good examples of firms in the past that laid off 90% of its staff and survived before?

@Pwnallthethings is it really 90%? kind of amazing twitter is still up.

@herid @Pwnallthethings it will run fine until there is some odd quirk or tribal knowledge that comes up. I worked at a place that cycled servers behind HA proxy because of a memory leak issue. I’m sure there is some bug that a core team only knows how to deal with and prevent.

@wompy @Pwnallthethings yes, but it's surprising to me this hasn't happened yet.

@herid @Pwnallthethings give it a couple weeks, unless heavy surge of activity or push of new code happens before then.

@wompy @herid On the "surge of activity" front, check on when the world cup starts :)

@Pwnallthethings @herid oh I think left Monday to be a chaotic mess. World Cup traffic and leak of potential new features to follow it?
I for one welcome the fail whales return.
