Elon actively mocking the livelihoods he destroyed, plus the usual edgelord sexism and more.
I'll not be back until he isn't.
Any and all interactions here until then would be complicit.
Good luck.

There's quite some overlap between eng managers and staff+ engineers in the nature of the work.
Both roles tend to have high expectations, but less specificity. Both can be large-impact roles, but come with relatively little support.
Compared these in newsletter.pragmaticengineer…

Jedem AG sollte in diesem Zusammenhang klar sein, das die Lockerung der Schutzmaßnahmen und speziell zuletzt die Aufhebung der Isolationspflicht potenziell fatale Folgen haben wird. Die Auswirkungen können bereits jetzt schon nicht mehr geleugnet werden. 6/

Why I left @twitter or rather why I did not sign up for “extremely hardcore” Twitter 2.0

In dieser #s3 @SBahnBerlin fährt die DB Sicherheit mit.
Wenn man der #Maskenpflicht erst nach Aufforderung und mit einer falschen Maske nachkommen darf kann ich doch sicher auch künftig erst nach Kontrolle ein Kurzstreckenticket lösen?

There’s also a shockingly unfortunate libertarian “me me me” mentality still in the tech industry. But it is improving. It’s fewer Peter Pans these days and slowly becoming more welcoming and inclusive, which hopefully also will see an increase in consideration for others – at Sudbury, MA

Truly incredible in the literal sense of the word.
He's both showing himself to be the worst boss (harming his companies's chances at hiring talent ever again), destroys the myth as an engineering genius, *and* demonstrating all the failure points of US employement law.
I think all the other billionaires and tech fails paid @elonmusk a lot of money to make their own brand of narcissistic lack-of-clue leadership seem reasonable by comparison
I mean, now you can point at literally anyone and go "Well, *at least* they're not Elon"

Eine klare Mehrheit der Bürger ist für die Corona Isolationspflicht. Niemand will mit Corona Infizierten den Arbeitsplatz teilen. Der Vergleich mit der Grippe hinkt auch, schon wegen LongCovid und der Ansteckungsgefahr, die bei COVID viel höher ist.
Should the inevitable data leak happen, sue. EU loves its GDPR violators.
Remember @ElonMusk is the sole owner, and if personal culpability were to be established, piercing the corporate veil is not out of the question.

In theory, we knew repeated COVID reinfections were bad, but a study out today in @Nature of 5.8 million people shows that each reinfection significantly increases the risks of complications, like diabetes and kidney problems, hospitalizations and death.

Hrm. Second attempt at downloading my data, but I just never get the notification for the download being available.
Is this broken for anyone else?
Seems straightforward enough - first time I requested via web and yesterday via the app ...
Everyone who has bought into #bitcoin in the last ~2 years is now certainly enjoying their depression-resistant value store.
Or should that be -inducing?
