Jelly posted:It's tweets like this that make you realize he's not tanking this company on purpose, he really is that stupid. It's really, really hard to believe, but Occam's Razor and all. I think he does actually have some kind of vision of what he wants the site to be*, what he lacks is any understanding of the technological changes necessary to make that happen or the technology as it exists now, and he seems to be determined to just lose the entire development staff that built that thing. Sort of makes me wonder if he's imagining he can just do a "full rewrite" with "fresh teams". Which, you know, yea, you totally could do that, but also if you wanted to do it and stay profitable (and functional?) in the meantime you would have just approached it as "I am new CEO. Here is new vision for app. I need roadmap to get from where we are, to new vision. I need people who do not share my new vision, to find other places to work". That is sort of a normal thing that happens all the time when IP gets bought and sold. Nothing about what we're seeing is normal, and on some levels it terrifies me, but it's only disastrous if Twitter somehow comes out on top of all this which looks really loving unlikely. If that doesn't happen then it's just a bit of FAFO that reminds the rest of the industry why we don't "solve" "problems" this way. *ideas you have at 4am after deciding to chase some adderall with LSD at 1AM, still count as "vision", I ought to loving know!

rotinaj posted:Maybe he is doing actual work as a ceo and is too buhahahahahahaha No wait let's be fair. He might be genuinely trying to be an eXtreme engineer and getting around to learning a sliver of the codebase. Which is what I'm hoping for because it'd be loving hilarious when he inevitably gets frustrated and declares some nigh universal standard as wrong and bad and we get to watch hordes of dipshits try desperately to explain to actual computer touchers why he's right. And it'd be something stupid as gently caress to get mad at like anonymous functions or something.

https://medium.com/@tarttoter/elon-musk-does-a-lot-more-than-smoke-weed-c4404288ae1b This was written by someone who I know personally and also was well known to TCC in the early 2000s. I take this at face value, and, also, I think I took some of the same LSD, so that's pretty loving funny. quote:I remember one big rich-people party where Musk was present, the only time I think we were ever in physical proximity; I spent the evening getting incredibly stoned in a back room off a Volcano vaporizer with an esteemed local chef I’d previously mistaken for a square. I wish I could say more about my experiences with these people, but it’s amazing I remember anything more than doing whip-its, riding my bike, and weird meditation classes. What a fuckin loser that muskrat is

Ups_rail posted:See now that makes like musk, he down with recreational mind expansion. I agree with the author that he sounds like a shithead and also it's super toxic for someone this into drugs to have hardline anti drug policies at their places of work he just sounds like a hypocrite acidhead to me, one of the people who keeps dialing the phone but is incapable of actually "getting the message". If you just keep smashing the ego wall over and over chemically when you're already a raging dickhead of an egomaniac, it stands a good chance of just making you an even weirder and more pronounced egomaniac dickhead. Clyde Radcliffe posted:I find it hard to believe a man who drinks caffeine-free diet cola to trigger the libs also enjoys tripping balls on high-quality psychedelics. Seems likely to me he's on a lot of poo poo but I believe the author of that piece as well as loving Azelia Banks over Musk any day, in which case, dude is just a lovely acidhead who is unfortunately rich

Genpei Turtle posted:Kara Swisher fawns over all sociopath tech CEOs except Bill Gates who she really dislikes. She's fully on board with the toxic idea of "visionary disrupting CEOs" driving the tech industry. I've heard her talk in person at a couple of times at conventions for work and have heard her gush about all sorts of scumbags like Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg. What stuck out in particular to me was when I heard her at a conference carrying water for the Facebook execs over all the disinformation getting promoted around the 2016 election. IIRC she called Zuckerberg a "wonderful person" who's trying real hard and just didn't understand how much power and reach Facebook had, aw shucks. Every time I've seen her she comes across as a massive bootlicker for some the worst people in the tech industry. That even she's come around on Musk shows just how much he's shown his rear end. Several pages ago but wanted to 2nd this - Swisher sucks and while isn’t quite the access journalist as someone like Habberman, she very much fawns over these morons, Musk being only a very recent exception for her
