The problem is that it's not working for Elon either, Elon is just insulated from bad decisions because he can pay for them.

  Are you sure he can pay? https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2023/06/judge-ruled-twitter-must-be-evicted-from-colorado-office-over-unpaid-rent/ https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2023/06/judge-ruled-twit...

    Refusing to pay your vendors is actually a surprisingly common (small) business strategy. Notice nobody else has shut them off yet, even GCP or their main office landlord.

      Translations briefly disappeared. I strongly suspect money wiring was involved in getting them back.

        They're still gone for me, but only maybe 75% of the time, so I suspect a bug that nobody has tried to fix. (Especially because the way it fails involves a "(null)" string being returned instead of the translation.)

      Wasn't an eviction order just issued in relation to their Boulder office?

        They weren't actually using that space, it's empty.
