Twitter ‘closes offices’ after Elon Musk’s loyalty oath sparks resignations
- userbinator 4y agoI wonder if Musk effectively burning it to the ground and trying to rebuild with far fewer staff may also result in returning to a far simpler and less bloated site than the horrible SPA it forced upon everyone ~2 years ago. Something more like Nitter.
- chatterhead 4y agoYes. He's using the perception of impulsivity to his advantage. How these people think he's that dumb is beyond me. They apparently are very prone to groupthink and should be exited. Edit: I'm posting to fast (1 post per hour is too fast) so here is my response to Milo. Not everything associated with someone you don't like has to have parallels to Donald Trump. Here are the facts: 1) Twitter needs help 2) Everyone in the world knows it 3) Elon has billions to pay top tier workers 4) Resignations with pay prevent disgruntled sabotage 5) Tech layoffs rumbling across the industry 6) Twitter is about to have their pick of the litter 7) While former Twits are going to actually have to compete Somehow this puts Elon in a bad position?
- BarryMilo 4y agoI love that no matter how much damage Musk does to himself and others, there's always someone here to claim he's playing 4D chess.
- quantified 4y agoBig bag of popcorn open here for the game. Looks like it's the top of the second inning now. Musk has been part of companies that started with and around him. Coming into something mature is a different thing. I suspect he's got at least some learning curve. Wonder if he's taking advice and from whom.
- ZiiS 4y agoTreating your existing staff with disrespect makes hiring much harder. The pick of the litter will get multiple offers, even the most mecurial may choose a safer bet.
