i'd love to see a thunderdome w/ a blue-haired twitter 'engineer' facing off against an engineer from tesla or spacex. 
spacex engineer: i wrote code that allowed the first rocket to return to Earth and land on its feet in the history of mankind.
tesla engineer: i wrote code that allowed a car to drive by itself for the first time in the history of mankind
twitter engineer: i wrote code to suppress conservative ideas and rewrite the history of mankind

I'm not sure Musk even knows what his endgame is at this point.

I don’t know much about any of this but it seems to me that Elon is either
A) a mad genius
or
B)destroying the company because he’s overreacting to his frick up of buying a shitty overvalued company.

Dude's gonna figure out how to run Twitter with a couple of hundred engineers, and it will make the rest of Big Tech companies go, "Never thought that was possible", isn't he?

At this point I wouldn't quit. I'd just go along for the ride to see what happens.

Imagine every government employee getting this type of notice. Absolute panic.
That's how you drain the swamp. Install "doers" as appointed agency heads and make them send out emails stating: "show me everything you worked on in the past year and how it helped this agency and the citizens".

I can't imagine that many coders are required to maintain Twitter. I can imagine a large number being necessary to continuously monitor, supress, and steer speech and trends. Additionally, constant tweaking of algorithms would require a large number of coders and psychologists.
The code to post and generate feeds is the same whether it's for 10 users or 500,000,000 users.

Has Elon ever done anything without making money as the end game? He sees the bloat and waste and is eliminating it.

I like the guy, but he's clearly autistic. He thinks only in machine language. A social platform needs a humans touch.

Just finished a Lex Fridman podcast where his guest is Andrej Karpathy. He’s considered one of the most brilliant AI minds on earth.
Idk anything about his politics or his feelings towards Elon the person.
But he said at Tesla Elon is unreal at maximizing efficiency and getting rid of bloat with regards to processes and specific programming tasks and shite. Down to tiny issues with complicated software program stuff. He said Elon is obsessed with completely getting rid of something that is inefficient, rather than keep it.
After listening to this guy, I have to think Musk knows EXACTLY what he’s doing.
ETA: And this genius AI programmer guy seems to think Elon knows WAY more about coding than what is coming out on Twitter from these fired software engineers.

He needs to dangle the real carrot. Whomever stays and proves to be a hustler is probably gonna get a frickton more money.
Here's how you know when an Elon company has reached maximum Elon status: When the employees that are left are making twice as much as they were, 75% of the bloat has been cut away and twitter is functioning like a machine - the media will finally shut the frick up about it.
That's when you'll know.

At this point all he has left are the H1-B employees who are sticking around until they get a new job.
