These companies are worth billions and they can't make their sites load any faster?

They tend to employ technical staff who are too busy dressing as girls and having consent accidents to learn how to build decent applications.

Very hard when engineering is continually shat upon by the Gods of Marketing, because ads pay the bills.

Well any time I have to deal with that shit I install anti-malware and anti-ad shit so those ads aren't getting watched, because they can't stop it or choose not to. These boomers would never even think of that. It's never even creative malware, just the same bullshit pop-ups and pop-unders and Windows errors (on their Macs) that you'd have seen 20 years ago. Shit that wouldn't even fool your average boomer.

Christ looking at the salaries now this absurdity. No wonder twitter has never ran black with these kind of outlandish expenses. Musk cleaning house might actually fix the platform if the troons don't totally sabatoge it before the new paint has dried.

You missed the best part: Musk directly called her a idiot an liar.


Also wrecking idiot programmers trying to virtue signal


I don't understand how any one isn't enjoying the new Musk run twitter.

I don't understand why running a big website is so staggeringly expensive. It costs more to run Twitter than most small countries.

When you're spending millions every year just to feed and appease a bunch of fat, useless troons who would rather spend their time alienating your customers than doing their jobs, it takes a lot out of a business, sort of like a cancerous tumor. I'm sure there are lots of useless cis people too.

Lmao. Imagine being shitposted by King Twit himself.

Also jesus imagine needing to grab that much information purely for the landing page.

Just how much information is that app harvesting?

 

[Ultrapenguin]

Musk being in charge sort of reminds me of my feelings on Trump being president: I don't really care much about his vision, but it's nice that someone who isn't in the normal clique is now involved and it's apparently disrupting things.

This kind of upper class infighting is both entertaining and good for the average person. Approve.

on this second pic, this makes me giddy. There are few things in the world more brutal than a critique of code by a competent engineer reviewing an incompetent engineer. The primary reason is that you cannot bullshit with code. It works or it doesn't, and it works in x time using y amount of memory. If you nigger-rig bad-performing code together and there is a better way, you will get ripped apart. Someone will write it better in the code review comments and show you how much faster it is to your face and there's nothing you can say to massage your ego. This is just a tiny snippet of that leaking into the public. Musk shitting on twitter's legacy codebase is going to be fun.

I'm just glad Elon decided to take the piss at Ed Markey, the dumbass senator of Massachusetts (next to Fauxcahontas.) Got under his skin enough that he aimed a thinly veiled government legal threat that all the Musk detractors are all clapping like seals over.



At least Elon is also addressing the more important elephant in the room about Markey:

Saw that earlier. People in that thread were legit saying that it's the government's job to control companies like that.

Please do, so that the case can be made that twitter is a quasi-government entity and we can have true 1st amendment freedom of speech on it.

Start-ups in tech always have had generous benefits and all kinds of perks, I think when innovation is your goal it makes sense to attract the best of the best.

Problem is after that, when you move towards being an established company, it's basically impossible to reduce benefits unless you want to lose your good people, but now there's a ton more people who may not be as good as the ones you really want to keep/attract but still get the same benefits. So it can bloat out of control unless you stay lean with your headcount.

"We don't need net neutrality. Private businesses can do what they want!"
"Help! Government! Police!"

As usual, they trot out the "it's a private business" argument only when it suits them. Now that twitter is owned by the wrong people, all the usual suspects suddenly pivoted to going on about how twitter is a public square and should be regulated as a common carrier.

The difference between Musk and Trump is Musk has more or less absolute power to do whatever the hell he thinks will right the ship.
