“ In November, after Musk took over Twitter, Crawford posted a photo of herself sleeping in the office in an attempt to show her dedication to the company. “Since some people are losing their minds I’ll explain: doing hard things requires sacrifice (time, energy, etc),” she explained in a Twitter thread at the time following widespread backlash.”

By now all of the remaining people should apply for unemployment benefits as a proactive measure.

By March 24th he’ll be the only one left. So, technically true.

Looks like Buckingham Fountain in Grant Park on the lakefront in Chicago. Constant tours running through there on those contraptions, and usually a lot more people to run into.

I didn’t check for this language when the NHTSA safety recall report came out, but it was on Tesla’s site a few days later, on the 19th (Internet Archive). Gizmodo abridged it when they quoted it.
Will owners continue to receive FSD Beta?
Until the software version containing the fix is available, we have paused the rollout of FSD Beta to all who have opted-in but have not yet received a software version containing FSD Beta.
A little annoying that the “answers” can’t seem to be properly unhidden on the archived version, but they are there in the source for the page. Anyway, it still appears after they state that they will not be removing the software.

More on Crawford, but also that “stock grants” rumor.
At first, managers assumed the questions were related to annual bonuses. In January, Musk’s associates told Twitter employees that high performers would receive new stock grants.
…
On Saturday, though, the real reason for the calls was finally revealed. Twitter employees tried to log onto their work devices only to find that they’d been locked out, just like thousands of workers before them.
…
Among the more notable layoffs in this round were founders of companies that Twitter had acquired under its previous owners. Haraldur Thorleifsson, Martijn de Kuijper, Leah Culver, and Esther Crawford had previously been on a “do not fire” list, because it was going to be so expensive to pay them out: as part of their compensation packages, the founders had accelerated stock vesting. All four were cut over the weekend.
…
Davis’ star has risen steadily since he came to Twitter as part of Musk’s transition team last year. In December, the Information reported that Musk tasked Davis with cutting $500 million in costs; instead, he cut close to $1 billion — all while sleeping in the office with his partner and their newborn child.
It’s not enough to sleep at work. You have to spread the misery to as many people as possible by bringing a baby so other people can’t.

Well I suppose after retiring from his Snooker career he needed something else to do.

Posting another Garbage Day newsletter. This week it goes into things that Ryan has figured out about the new twitter algorithm and how it works, along with exactly what old code he thinks they are pulling in and reusing.
He seems to have figured it out pretty well, since over the weekend he was able to make a tweet go viral
Twice.
He then remembered that it is a miserable experience to suddenly be the focus of a fandom on Twitter 
None of what he has discovered is good, and as usual Ryan’s analysis is top-notch.
