So with the payroll department no longer existing, what’s the chances of that promised severance getting paid out? And I wonder if the email was legally binding. I’m kinda smelling lawsuits in the air.

Get bashed, platonist!

Software developer here. I’ve been in the position of going into numerous companies where entire development teams have walked off or other projects have been in production so long that source code has been lost and the products need changing. And I’m not talking about Cracker Jack small business applications, I’ve gone into clearinghouse and raw GIS systems where there’s no documentation, only databases and sometimes source code.

I believe that a product like Twitter could have all engineers replaced with a very small core team and no communication with the existing developers and still remain up. I suspect Musk is about to pull the curtain back on one of the most massive fraud operations that goes from crypto, to money laundering, to the stock market, voter fraud, et cetera, and doesn’t want the paper trail to get tainted.

Yeah, it's pretty amazing that he just completely killed it in less than a month. Like it might limp on for a while, but he has completely wrecked it in terms of where it was. Kinda like how Tumblr got destroyed and a big part of internet culture died with it.

The posters kept posting somewhere else, but it wasn't the same



I'm still sad that Facebook murdered blogs by lying about video views to advertisers. Blogs were better than twitter

Supposedly there are components, that, once broken, cannot come back online. Or at least without an incredible amount of effort. Just going on gut feeling, there’s a good chance it will die early next week, Elon will say “um, I meant to do that. X will be here soon!” And just walk away, while the scavengers show up to buy the office chairs and servers. Hell, I might be one of them.
