Selling posts or likes is too obvious and not even as related to bandwidth or compute as you'd think.

What you want to do is sell boost and deboost. Give a discount for buying them for other accounts. Get paid for the forum wars you're starting on purpose by letting jorp and Babylon Bee back.

No reason to wait for boost and deboost to be implemented properly either. Just sell it now, who's going to be able to tell?

What the gently caress is Elon even doing. As a owner-level exec you never give a gently caress about their code, you pay plenty of other people to do that and you recognise they mostly know their poo poo. At most you say 'cut our server costs' or 'payroll is too high, get rid of deadweight'. In my career I've interacted and reported to a fair number of owners and c-level execs and not a single one ever gave a gently caress about the 'how' of what got done because it's too much loving cognitive load if you start having to learn implementational poo poo on top of your actual job which is invariably 'generate value for shareholders' or 'increase money go in, decrease money go out' depending on whether you're a public or private corp.

Elon's entire reputation rests on the idea that he's a genius engineer actually doing the dirty work of making his products function, as opposed to the truth of the situation, that he's a complete dumbass who fell rear end-backwards into money and his only contribution is paying the real engineers who do the actual design and construction. This "code review" is a show to promote that idea, and he'll spend a couple hours with his hand thoughtfully on his chin acting like he understands what anyone is telling him. The sad part is that a lot of people are going to believe that he does.

Saw a guy today wearing a shirt that said "Elon University" and I got worried that it was like, an Elon fanboy joke, but turns out there's just an Elon University.

It was a real rollercoaster of emotions.
