So now engineers working on the algo can ensure their launches won't lower Elon's tweet visibility. Looks like those remaining at Twitter have a knack for corporate survival.

    Can they? I don't know, but I imagine that at this point, everyone still working for Twitter is there because they don't have any other realistic option.
