This wasn't supposed to be turned on until the 7th according to the docs floating around so either this accidentally toggled on early and incomplete because they dev team is just blindly deploying poo poo or they worked the remaining staff/QA all week to get this poo poo out

either option explains why it is not working at all

and what better way to lose goodwill than to sell people a $8 subscription that literally does nothing

So you're saying Elon Musk turned Twitter into an even dumber Star Citizen.

I feel like he floated that 20 out there intending to drop it to 8 when the first big celeb made a comment like that.

Then I remember he's shockingly dumb and maybe that's giving him too much credit

Will it dawn on any of these people that this is why the fancy perks you get at tech companies like free snacks and espresso bars and ball pits or whatever are a poor substitute for basic union-protected working condition guarantees?

Silicon Valley is absolutely loaded with people who firmly believe that they, specifically, are uniquely blessed genius hustlegrinders who will singlehandedly author the future, which is a fantastically exploitable trait for any management team that understands how to make socially maladjusted coder autists feel like they are superheroes in the college dorm environment that reflected the first and only time they felt a sense of community as part of an active social circle (hint: it's done by destroying work life balance, lionizing it, and giving them the ping pong tables and bean bag chairs that seamlessly replicate college aesthetics).

Which is to say no, almost certainly not. This mindset got years of reinforcement due to bloated pay, because interest rates for big biz were so low for so long that a lot of places could afford to borrow infinite money at <0 interest while producing nothing of value and calling it "loss leading," sometimes even creating what were essentially makework programs for their pool of "geniuses" just to keep other companies from having them.

It's gonna take a minute for the new reality to humble them and make them identify as workers. You're already seeing a lot of restructuring now that interests have jacked back up.

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are paying $8 a month for a blue tick on twitter.
