I was fired from Twitter this morning because during a code review, I had a procedure called "upDo.g" and when Elon asked me "what's upDo.g?" I said "nothing much, what's up with you." He walked away and then my badge stopped working & security escorted me out of the building.

Story to be updated soon with more: Am hearing that several “critical” infra engineering teams at Twitter have completely resigned. “You cannot run Twitter without this team,” one current engineer tells me of one such group. Also, Twitter has shut off badge access to its offices.

I think Future Twitter could well be a commercial success. Endless grind and toxicity has never been a barrier for capitalism.

I think the more interesting question is how the hell did these companies get so far?

It is such a strange feeling to see all of these people I clicked with over the years be revealed as ADHD.
