he's trying to run it like a startup. he tweeted out earlier today something like "how do you make a small fortune with a social media company? start with a large fortune." there's too much dead weight sloshing around. he's not going to be able to make any radical changes with so many basedlennial males and tiktok roasties who just want to live a lifestyle fucking everything up. people forget that 80-99% of the functionality that exists on these platforms was created and maintained by small teams of 20 something white and asian men years ago. it's a private company now and whoever sticks around will be rewarded like a founder or first gen employee if elon's able to take twitter a step function forward with this move. $44 billion is a lot of money to pay to take a shot at a start up but if you want to do that this is what you do.

This is why tech companies are so based. They can fire almost everyone and make the same amount of money or more. I think the market is basically irrational for dumping tech so hard going into a recession. I understand the thing about high interest rates making future growth less valuable but they aren’t fairly rewarded for their recession proof nature. Not all tech companies of course but the good ones will just come out of this leaner and meaner and printing money. That’s kind of what happened after 2008 as well

It is hilarious how NEETs on Twitter think they can run a successful company with a barebone skeleton crew and it will be the same. Twitter the site can probably run with a core team of devs and infra. Twitter the company cannot.
Musk wants to make Twitter profitable right? What does he need? A sale teams. That means account managers, a finance team and of course sales people.
What comes with sales? Legal teams. Teams to ensure that the contract is legal. And he needs a legal team for every single country that Twitter is selling ads out of.
Next, he wants them to stop remote working. What does that mean? It means he needs to hire HR to babysit the staff and the office. And he needs it for every country Twitter is based out of unless he plans for overseas workers to be remote only.
There are probably more I am missing but legit brain dead take that Twitter would run if Musk fired everyone save 60 devs / infra.

what kind of work do you think needs to be done at twitter that can only be done by irreplaceable genius software engineers? Almost all superficial changes done to social media sites are made by devs who just try to justify their own existence at the company. None of them are necessary or even wanted by the userbase. All that the userbase wants is that the site keeps running, which requires a competent maintenance and security team and that's pretty much it.
