The world cup is in two days -- how will Twitter cope with the largest amount of traffic it sees all year? Why fire the majority of employees right before this major event?
Are football fans really a big part of the Twitter user base?

#12Plenty of smooth talkers are gonna be rooted out soon

#13Guess that means the office is no longer closed. I just hope whoever processes severance checks is still working.
Perhaps it is still closed and no one told him.
The movie is going to be great.

#14Did Elon lead his other companies this way and we just didn’t know? Or has he suddenly lost his ability to make good decisions?
This is probably eyewash to flush out leakers. Sent different emails with changed details.

#15Elon has this bizarre conspiracy in his head where he thinks software engineers don't do anything until he realizes they do everything.
Btw, a dev build is in prod right now. Or someone forgot to minimize the JS. Tons of import map issues.

#16I can barely believe this man started a spaceflight company. He must have had some incredibly subordinates to pull that off; not only did they have to deal with him, but they also had to bootstrap spaceflight.
I'm seriously wondering if this is drug related. I dont think he was always this erratic.

Probably some mix of the two.

#18>In an email for remote Twitter engineers, Elon Musk says he wants to speak to people on video ("only those who cannot physically get to Twitter HQ are excused") but "if possible, I would encourage you to fly to SF to present in person." He'll be at the office until midnight. https://twitter.com/ZoeSchiffer/status/1593665774744350721
This shows how out of touch he is - fly, right now, possibly across the country, just to please me. He has no concept or care of how much that might cost or disrupt someones life.

I guess they'll hop in their private jets and head on over.

People I know at SpaceX are terrified of him.
They all secretly track when he comes into the office, and actively hide from him.
