This 4d chess thing is getting old. He's just a terrible boss doing what terrible bosses do all the time, fire people at whim, decide product direction is a feelings thing that only he is capable of doing, ignores and reject any compet

I can pretty easily keep a mysql instance running. I cannot easily do that while adding features to it. Scale that up a lot and you can see how Twitter can keep running with much less people while not delivering anything. The fact that a si

Twitter has not changed as a product. His Twitter blue has been a disaster so far. Hes getting attention for his much larger failure, being the worst tech company manager we've seen in a while. You cant take credit for positive outcome

You mean both of his companies that have HEAVILY regulated products and need to pass extensive testing and certification by third parties before being used? You mean those are safe? I wonder why. Must be Elons genius.

He will likely close the offices outside the US where labour laws are strong. No need to keep a european office if you can make us workers do overtime and get people cheaper on other markets on similar timezones. Of course this is short sig

We all conflate success with merit and competence but in reality is much more complex than that. Having the means (cash) and insight or luck to make a bet at the right time gets you most of the way there. For the rest, you don't have t

If a well estabilished restaurant loses half its waiters right before the biggest dining week in the year, is it reasonable to expect that it fails in spectacular ways?

They do, but it would be novel if for once, they choose decency instead of profit.

I bet there was nothing happening in the last 60 days that would demotivate people on twitter. All was well.

Not like this. Mostly what happens is a constant barrage of meetings where you present projects, roadmaps, timelines to a variety of people/teams. This seems like its focused on individual "evaluation" so its likely a layoff

They are not reviewing code, they are reviewing people. And doing a terrible job at that if it really involves code printouts and short interviews. This is likely a fishing expedition to collect data to disguise layoffs as performance firin

Yes but there is a catch. I've seen some shit from some fundamental lover programmers. The fundamentals are important but not essential to every job, there is hardly a role they can't improve, but they're not guaranteed to gi

Non rdbms are popular because at scale everything that's nice about "classic" rdbms are what makes them ultra slow. edit: the features I refer to are stuff like foreign keys, cascades, dynamic fields, complex joins, etc. Once

Facebook is a no go for me mostly for not hiring in the Netherlands and also for being a s** company actively working to destroy society. They might have to solve both for me to go happily.

Oh, come on, sleep and hibernation are the "shut down" of a laptop nowadays, you close the lid and shove it into the bag. Its just as absurd as saying you cant put the phone in your pocket unless you fully turn it off.

I think their trained data and current models for navigating are almost completely useless for a humanoid robot. They might have the awareness tracking for a certain "scale" of objects but a humanoid robot can trip on a half inch

Wait for real world reviews, the indications here are that apple will catch up and be a good price/performance if not better but the jury is still out.
