Thanks. Cooking dinner with sports ball in the background so context was needed! Whenever I fall for satire I always say “the point of satire is that it’s believable”. I feel leas stupid after that modest proposition.

Oh, I’m sure that If that parody above did play out in real life, it is still the least absurd thing that has been said within the halls of Twitter over the last few months!
The only reason that I felt compelled to say something is because it is so absolutely believable! I knew it was a parody and I still double checked and made sure a couple of times before saying anything!

I think that the best use of AI I have ever thought of is deep faking Elon into this as one particular character
It is basically his strategy here. Too bad I won’t get around to ever doing it
Twitter did not immediately respond to Reuters request for a comment.
C’mon, Reuters. You gotta add, “because Twitter no longer has a communications department.” when you’re covering these layoffs, it’s tradition.

At some point they aren’t really rounds, right? It’s like trying to count dust bunnies in a basement that’s never been cleaned…there might be some places that are more concentrated, but really it’s just part of one continuous mess. Give it a couple more months and the Twitter office will probably be an example of that too.

“Fits” might be a good term.
“Today Twitter experienced another fit of layoffs at the hands of enraged toddler, Elon Musk”

The job cuts impacted multiple engineering teams, including those supporting advertising technology
Didn’t he just give them a week to rewrite how advertising works? Has it even been a week yet?

It probably took less than a week before someone from the dept. came back and told him “This is impossible to do in a week, sir”, and he fired the whole department.
I guess that when applied to employees (only) Elon does understand the actual meaning of “One bad (in his opinion) apple”

It does seem to have been a week. The Verge story quoted this tweet (Internet Archive) from the night of the 18th.
Regarding Esther Crawford, Engadget had:
At one point, she even shared a photo of herself sleeping on the floor of Twitter’s office.
Technically, someone else did that. Unless her employee got permission, she just reacted to it.

Someone else posted it, but it sure looks like it could be her on the floor.
