imagine all the institutional knowledge that just went up in smoke, whoops!
good thing they still have all their longtime/senior employees with things locked up tight in the brain vau-- oh. oh no.
I'm sure there was no important automated services that relied on it either
If I’m slack I keep the lights on to keep racking up payments and fuck over Elon then sue lmao

can't wait for Matt Taibbi to post a 42-tweets long thread about this
"That same day, Jira — a tool Twitter uses to track everything from progress on feature updates to regulatory compliance — also stopped working. With no way to chat and no code to ship, most engineers took the day off.
Jira access was restored on Thursday.
Slack remained down at the company on Thursday. While some employees communicated over email, others essentially took a second day off."

"Negative feedback is a good thing, which is why everyone who likes me enough to pay a monthly fee gets their replies boosted to the top"
also if there are scammer accounts he knows about why did he just block them instead of having the accounts removed
Elon's probably going to crack down on mass blocking soon, especially with the increasing popularity of the twitter blue blocklist.
It owns that how shit as jack was as a person regarding the worst people on twitter, that the current lead is literally a junkie obsessing over all the worst aspects of being a serious twitter power via constantly checking his views and impressions and likes every day compulsively to see how many people like him and has made a hell of his own making.
A billionaire takes over the “public square” and suddenly there is less oversight of him, politicians, and far right nazis in said square 🤔

Whether officials were deleting an embarrassing post or just correcting a typo, Politwoops tracked them all. But service changes made after Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter have rendered it impossible for us to continue tracking these tweets.
"No you see i did make a post about trump doing it" (makes a 52 post thread about censoring the right even while trump was in power.)
don't have to pay bills if you don't have a department of payments

lmao she ate dirt for Musk and got shown the door
Twitter Inc <a href="https://www.reuters.com/companies/TWTR.MX" target="_blank">(TWTR.MX)</a> has laid off at least 200 employees, or about 10% of its workforce, the New York Times <a href="https://nyti.ms/3SxfUSo" target="_blank">reported</a> late on Sunday, in its latest round of job cuts since Elon Musk took over the micro-blogging site last October.
“Twitter's employment agreement says these will be individually arbitrated, so that's what we're doing," Liss-Riordan said. "We're looking forward to the day when Elon Musk comes to his senses and realizes it's much cheaper to pay people what they are owed.

I'm so glad Elon is looking into this

apparently the rev share system is actually live, at least for some users?
initial results are not promising though lol

Me, owning you: "I wasn't even SHOWN anything that would go against the narrative that Elon Musk wants me to push!"
Lmfao, that’s not the slam dunk taibbi thinks it is.
“Uh sir they didn’t show me the files that made trump look worse”
How did Rupert Murdoch get secret information from the Saudis that could potentially have a major effect on the US economy in a negative way? Mystery of the century there.
it amazes me Musk thinks birdsite can threaten a company that's part of FAANG. fucking get out
Elon Musk is running into an obstacle in his relentless drive to cut costs at Twitter: some of the same vendors that Twitter is squeezing to save money are also its advertising clients. As recently as last month, Twitter sales and marketing staff were told by their colleagues that Amazon had ...
can't share revenue if there isn't any
ofc even if he was making money elom would use accounting tricks to keep from paying out any of this shit

long tweets are getting even longer lol
Fuck yes, make it long enough to galtse people
Sacking the kiddie porn team is a special kind of evil

"Current and former employees of the company tell BBC Panorama that features intended to protect Twitter users from trolling and harassment are proving difficult to maintain, amid what they describe as a chaotic working environment in which Mr Musk is shadowed by bodyguards at all times."
"He believes this lack of trust is betrayed by the level of security Mr Musk surrounds himself with.
"Wherever he goes in the office, there are at least two bodyguards - very bulky, tall, Hollywood movie-[style] bodyguards. Even when [he goes] to the restroom," he tells me.
He thinks for Mr Musk it's about money. He says cleaning and catering staff were all sacked - and that Mr Musk even tried to sell the office plants to employees."
lmfao
Article: elon musk has made Twitter a safe haven for pedophiles and other sex abusers
Elon: sorry not sorry 🤣🤣
"Anyone who can best the CEO in hand-to-hand combat" may seem barbaric and harsh, but the Delaware Chancery Court has operated under these traditions since time immemorial
"'you have been found guilty by the court of musk, based on the compelling evidence of 'my friend said so'. the sentence is death."
A group of gaggling paid for blue check mark idiots cheering on Elon Musk suspending the creator of a video because they didn’t want some clout chasing account using it without permission is really a perfect encapsulation of how art is treated in general in America. How fucking dire
yeah I totally remember all those times that Twitter shit itself to death on a monthly basis before Musk bought it, thinking back to all those times that jack shrugged and complained about his company's brittle coding stack, definitely a thing that happened all the time back in 2021 and before
also lol when has a complete code refactor ever successfully solved these sort of structural problems? You can't program around having fired all your competent coders.
little baby bitch boy musk afraid of his own employees lol
Kinda wondering if Elon is just suffering from amphetamine paranoia or if he's actually worried about getting bonesawed by the Saudis who he owes all that money to.
Probably both.
Twitter is only one website therefore it only needs one site reliability engineer
