Elon can't be that stupid. You'd ask your product managers and your lead dev which coders are the best. If he wants to really cut costs, he'll know that bad coders cost you money in QA as well. He'll have to be smart about his cuts to engineering and QA.

I don't believe the code thing, surely even he can't be that stupid.

Fired:

console.log("Hello");

Hired:

console.log("H")
console.log("e")
console.log("l")
console.log("l")
console.log("o")

A lot of this stuff is pretty funny, but it is, as always, concerning to see one person tweeting, "I heard that Elon is replacing all the SREs with mallards!" and thousands of people circulating that, responding to it as if it's fact, etc.—especially given how many of those people are also currently trying to score their boring dunks on right-wingers for uncritically gobbling up whatever the latest pro-Elon line is. Media literacy is in the absolute toilet across a lot of camps here. Pretty grim.
You mean the right wingers that still say the election was stolen and coined the phrases fake news and alternate facts at a national level as a political party?

They can still have their "dunks" even if randos on the internet on the Left want to believe the worst of Elon Musk and laugh at him instead of waiting for all the facts. Like the two sides are not even in the same galaxy in comparisons here.

Am I wrong or is this permanently damaging Musk's image on every front ? His little cult are legit the only people I see defending him. Everyone else, regardless of agenda, seems to be shitting on him

After Musk tanks Twitter where's he gonna go to have his adoring cult kiss his boots? Not sure he can survive without daily bootlicking.

He's not a nobody, he ran the campaign for Justice Gorsuch and is a well connected lobbyist.
We have different definitions of conservative nobody. The vast majority of people who follow politics wouldn't know who the fuck this guy is, even if within the party people would.

Dude is desperate for a check mark and will gladly pay his $8 a month to Elon to get it. That tells me all I need to know about him.

I don't think it requires any agenda to see the man is a dipshit on a business, social and emotional level. There's just so many ways you can look at this whole thing and see that it's a trainwreck.

It's very clear he's never, ever had to deal with Advertisers before. Which makes sense?
Tesla doesn't have a marketing team or budget, they rely on the "Build it and they will come" mantra.

It's simple common sense that if you're relying on advertisers for income, you don't alienate them off by attacking them and everything else he's done. He lacks simple common sense.

or he just an idiot, but I agree he thinks he can turn a profit on his fanboys and right-wingers staying on and paying the subs.

changing public discourse and all that other stuff is bonus
Unsurprising and yet unsettling. I mean after Musk's "free speech" crap, actively supporting CCP against Taiwan and Ukraine "proposals", what can you expect.

And yet we still have people on the left/liberals supporting him because "electric cars".

I hope this will help break down the illusion that rich people are smart and earned their money.

Far, far too many people equate Musk to a "Real life Tony Stark", and once again, the media holds a lot of this blame.

Mastodon makes no sense to me whatsoever. I tried to sign up and have no clue what server I'm supposed to be on.

Cohost makes no sense, but at least I was able to sign up.

Where in the fuck is the actual Twitter replacement? That's what we need.

This will end up being one of the biggest self inflicted cash burns in modern history. It's truly quite remarkable!
