@cong I love his claim that the best stayed when it’s very clear they all left.

@cong great story and to the point… apparently Mama Musk did not teach the boy how to live well in this beautiful diverse world.

@cong that brings him down to 2.3K employees left, from 7000-ish. I am shocked it hasn’t collapsed under the weight of his ego.

@cong I am not sure if I should laugh or cry at how insane this request sounds. Screenshotting or printing code makes absolutely no sense.

@cong thanks!!

@cong He wants code presented in person so he can be tutored on what code is, how it works, enabling him (he thinks) to BS his way through the next discussion.

I'm still waiting for someone to register 'Elongate' for the title of a book on the whole affair...

@cong

Elon Musk demanded workers break into the Twitter offices to present their code to him in person. FIFY.
