    Elon Musk’s Twitter Teeters on the Edge After Another 1,200 Leave Mr. Musk sent emails on Friday asking to learn about Twitter’s underlying technology as key infrastructure teams have been decimated. “Anyone who actually writes software, please report to the 10th floor at 2 p.m. today,” he wrote in a two-paragraph message, which was viewed by The New York Times. “Thanks, Elon.” About 30 minutes later, Mr. Musk sent another email saying he wanted to learn about Twitter’s “tech stack,” Genius!

    The full text of the emails is even better:

    Quote:

    Anyone who actually writes software, please report to the 10th floor at 2 pm today. Before doing so, please email a bullet point summary of what your code commands have achieved in the past ~6 months, along with up to 10 screenshots of the most salient lines of code.

    My code commands? salient lines of code? screenshots? Oh wait, I have a salient line of code:

    --i

          Looks like not only the payroll dept.[^]

          M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

                  On the other hand, that's one way to try to hold on to $44 billion. :rolleyes: Maybe he's smarter than I'm giving him credit for. :laugh:

                    Maintenance programmer: this line is mine; not the others. (next page)

                    "Before entering on an understanding, I have meditated for a long time, and have foreseen what might happen. It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly, secretly, what I have to say or to do in a circumstance unexpected by other people; it is reflection, it is meditation." - Napoleon I

                      I can't believe his fanboys who are saying this is his plan all along, that he's playing 4D chess. Right, like the captain of a ship can play 4D chess with an iceberg! :doh:

                      Cheers, Vikram.

                        Elon has lost the benefit of the doubt… I suspect more people will take the severance package than expected.
