Nobody defending Elon's management decisions should ever be in charge of people.

If you fire people for disagreeing, you surround yourself with yes-men and liars.

If you evaluate software engineers on lines of code, you'll reward inefficiency and code bloat.

If you push people to work 12 hours a day, work quality will suffer and turnover will (quite rightly!) be huge.

This is going exactly as badly as he deserves.

@dpthorngren so many managers and execs behave in exactly this way.

It's capitalism and the myth of meritocracy. The problem is that the system is designed for these people to believe that they earned a special place among humanity.

We need to move beyond capitalism.
