All of this is so funny in general. It seems possible that Twitter might go the way of Tumblr in that goofy policy changes alienate the core userbase. I couldn’t imagine betting billions of dollars on a property that could basically just become a valuable-ish domain in the future.
Comparing Twitter to Tumblr is laughable. The same thing that happened to tumblr cannot happen to twitter.
For a variety of performance car nerd related reasons, I’ve not paid too much attention to Tesla. But iirc, there have been a couple threads here and elsewhere about Tesla making “expedient” choices in Eng, with a lot of horrible bodges around critical components. It definitely left me with an impression that Tesla was a place with low engineering quality — though again, I have no source at hand here, and don’t feel…
Printing off the code and reviewing code are complete side-shows to construct a narrative in the media. You know, his forte as a full-time twitterer (in between smoking dope, playing computer games, jerking off, and impregnating women with whom he is at the other end of a power gradient).
Then he's going to purge all the disloyal people and people who are doing stuff he's not interested in, so he can lower the payroll and establish political control of the corporate structure. His other forte as Mr Sociopath McMoneybags... (although in fairness he had no chance, when his parents christened him with that name, nominative determinism and all)
I'd be pissed off if I were a TSLA stock owner. Is Twitter paying Tesla to contract out these employees for their work? Otherwise, it's tons of thousands of dollars Tesla is pissing away on behalf of the CEO's side-hustle.
I'm not pissed and I am a stockholder. To me it makes a lot of sense. I doubt they are reviewing the entire code base. It seems like Elon is particularly interested in the automated systems that control content and detect bots. To that end, Tesla has a lot of expertise in AI systems.

People always do this with Elon... it doesn't matter if he's making cars, building rockets or taking on social media, the general consensus is that he doesn't know what he's doing and will fail. But, who's the richest man in the room? Who was right and who was wrong? People can hate on Elon all they want, but it's pure ignorance to think that we know any better. Let the man work his magic, I'm curious to see what he…
Or as they say in devout circles "the lord works in mysterious ways, who are we to question his divine judgement?"

Yeah, the Musk haters are out in full force. Perhaps he simply paid them from his own pocket (eg consulting rate) when they were "off the clock" from their day-time job? Seems very logical to me.
Well possibly, but you're honestly just making things up.
Again, the Musk haters are out in force.

Why?
