ELON MUSK - TWITTER

Elon Musk does it again:
Perhaps we need to go into bankruptcy .
Here are employee comments from the Twitter feed.

"What’s the motivation? Work hard or get fired?" asked one employee.

"How do you plan to restore totally destroyed trust?" asked another.

"I am ethically not okay with making the richest person in the world even richer. Also not okay with this alpha dog mentality – it’s already trickling down."

Would not that be a kicker. No more severance pay.

OH, it goes far beyond that....the verification system is very inefficient and is being voided/vandalized.

REMEMBER when I asked can one do MANY things well? I think the answer is apparent.

Looks like verification and Twitter Blue are down right now. Working out the bugs still?

But please note, Google, Meta, and a lot of other tech companies are having big layoffs and declining ad sales. They all got too optimistic and overspent, especially paying too much for tech talent.


They are apologizing, even the previous Twitter CEO, Jack.

While Musk muses about bankruptcy for Twitter. Sam Bankman-Fried, 2nd largest donor ($40 million) to the democrats, has taken FTX into bankruptcy.

There's a reason that university professors tend to be more liberal - they can see a bigger picture. Development of the mind continues with an advanced degree, whereas those who don't continue after high school tend to stop the investigation and expansion of their minds. Most who don't attend university don't even pick up a book after high school.

Here's some food for thought - I haven't read this study, but the brief is interesting.

Why is the professoriate predominantly liberal? A. Because “There is an intrinsic link between liberalism and intelligence such that the more liberal views of those with advanced degrees reflect liberals’ greater academic potential.” [The liberals-are-smarter theory] B. “Because cognitive development occurs with additional years of schooling, leading the intelligentsia to find fault with what they see as simplistic conservative ideologies.” [The more-learning-makes-profs-liberal theory]

A different study:

To explain the discrepancy, Snider wrote that college professors, particularly scientists, tend to self-select affiliation with the Democratic Party because their profession necessitates beliefs that align with it.

A 2013 Pew Research survey found that 43% of Republicans believe in evolution, which Snider notes is the "central organizing principle of modern biology." Of the 17 Republican politicians who sought the party's presidential nomination this year, only Jeb Bush suggested that he accepts the science. And, as Snider notes, "several of the candidates were on record stating that they did not accept evolutionary theory."

Do you really think that higher education has an underlying agenda to "poison" the youth of our country?

I'm just trying to understand why you seem to be so against intelligent people and experts. It's right there in your byline at the end of each post.

I gave you plenty of time to find the right answer and it looks like you failed… sorry.

The correct answer is that intelligence is something you don’t learn from any college. What you get from college or any trade school is knowledge. Your degree of intelligence determines how well you can apply the knowledge you’ve learned[\b]. That’s why history is full of very intelligent people who never went to college… it’s just a place to gain knowledge about certain subjects but those subjects don’t make you more intelligent, just more knowledgeable about individual subjects.

Does that make sense or do disagree with my definitions of knowledgeable vs intelligent?

a level of logical thinking also comes into play....as does the ability to "see"alternative platforms or patterns.

Another example of Musk's business acumen.

"Michael Grimes from Morgan Stanley, who was acting as Musk's banker on the deal, told him that SBF was read to pony up "at least $3 billion" to help fund the buyout of Twitter, the report says. In exchange for investing, Bankman-Fried reportedly "wanted to talk about the potential for 'social media blockchain integration.'"

At the time, it prompted Musk to ask: "Does Sam actually have $3B liquid?"

"He's into you... I do believe you will like him. Ultra genius and doer builder like your formula. Built FTX from scratch after MIT physics," Musk's banker told him about Bankman-Fried, who was reportedly "interested in helping to engineer a blockchain version of Twitter".

"Blockchain twitter isn't possible," Musk responded, adding that he would only take the meeting if he didn't have to have a "laborious blockchain debate."

Musk ultimately wound up passing on the decision to welcome Bankman-Fried as an investor."My response to SBF was...different," Musk wrote. "He set off my bs detector, which is why I did not think he had $3B," he said in another post.

My reaction to SBF was … different

Twitter is a great resource for government to get out information to the public quickly. Whether it is news releases about crime, highway backups, or new laws being implemented.
Very nice to have one source to update instead of calling all the print, TV, and local radio stations who often don't have space to broadcast these updates.

Elon Musk will be exposing the Twitter cover up of the Hunter Biden laptop story prior to the 2020 election today at 5pm eastern. Those who still don't want to know the truth should stay clear with eyes and ears fully shut. This could be pretty interesting to everybody else.
