There's so much poo poo to handle for bureaucratic processes for most large software enterprises that a manager putting their rusty code skills to use probably means a whole bunch of other poo poo isn't getting done.

Random thing I've been thinking about was the CEO of Elon's first job did a Q&A and was asked "if you could interview anyone who would it be and what would you ask them?" and his answer was basically "I would interview Elon Musk and ask him how much of his dumber behavior comes from working at a company that YOLOed into an industry they knew nothing about pretending they were hot poo poo and lit a bunch of money on fire." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-pUrB8vf3o

Yeah exactly. Managers at the base level are in meetings so the coders can actually code. Elon is so loving stupid he hasn’t wrapped his mind around having people on a team in a software company that do something other than code. I’m imagining him buying a game studio next. Nothing but code you miserable peons! What is this “artist” poo poo, sounds woke to me! What do you mean you mostly work in a game engine editor and don’t write code, you’re loving fired buddy Hardcastlemccormik fucked around with this message at 17:13 on Nov 28, 2022 |

I like how all the replies are "If you dont want to work, go somewhere else!" "Good, its weeding out people who don't work!" "Lazy people are the ones being let go. This is business! They need to work and quit being lazy!" The movie in my head is zooming to each one of these people tapping away on their iphone. Some dude on a street corner holding a homeless sign, a kid in his parents basement, some kid in a college classroom during a lecture. On and on.

Seriously why does he think software developers are in such oversupply right now that he can get away with abusing them like this? Nobody needs to put up with this. He's acting like working for him/Twitter is a huge privilege that they should be paying HIM for. gently caress you Elon, literally any other place would be better and I can get a job by this afternoon, probably for better pay e: BIG FLUFFY DOG posted:Almost everyone whose left is an h1b employee who can't really leave since they have only 60 days to find a new job and December is always a terrible month for hiring no matter what the economy.

At other companies he owns or controls, there's a layer of management that situates itself between Musk and his most deranged directives. We know SpaceX has a real CEO who does the actual managing and she doesn't take poo poo from him, so things get done. Tesla is a public company with some sensitivity to managerial practices that aren't too insane, though it's clear that he has a freer hand there (and it shows in build quality, bizarre features, odd choices like the S3XY model line). Musk is treating Twitter like his own private fiefdom answerable to no one except the worst dredges of the internet; anyone who might have been able to rein him in was fired literally the first day he arrived. Let's be clear, he's always been incredibly manic, impulsive, and clearly idiotic. But he's had responsible people who can filter or deflect his brain droppings with some effort. No safety net exists for Twitter, so we're seeing the full "genius" at work here. And it's ugly as poo poo.

This is some kind of idiot plot to speedrun destroying twitter for some reason. The reason is that Elon thinks that “code” is the only metric of success in a web platform company. I think he also believes himself to be centrist despite all of the evidence to the contrary. Self delusion and stupidity are a fun cocktail.

If they weren't there, SX would have killed some people with a Crew Dragon by now, and there would be multiple deaths/day at the Tesla factory.

Feeling bad for all the poo poo that middle/upper management gets is not something I expected from this saga. No really think about it. Think about middle/upper management's real job at SpaceX: extract funding from a spoiled manchild whose grasp of tech and physics and society seems largely derived from his half-baked understandings of 90's and 00's scifi. But hey also I actually hung out with a SpaceX employee recently and he explicitly said he wishes he had "a life and hobbies" and "I don't play video games much anymore" because of work. So even with this insulation, it's still a job I'd never loving take. No paycheck is big enough for me to give up time with my loved ones or doing the things I love.

When I lived in the Bay Area 5 years ago, tech folks still wanted to buy and did buy many Teslas, but it was an open statement that you should never ever ever work there. Miserable on a level nobody can cope with.
