NEW: Email from Elon to the engineering team: "Anyone who can actually write software, please report to the 10th floor at 2pm today. Before doing so, please email me a bullet point summary of what your code commits have achieved in the past 6 months" 1/

Elno had to testify in a trial today about his allegedly excessive compensation at Tesla.
He said a lot of crazy stuff we need to go over. It spooked the market, and Tesla is trending towards the toilet again. pic.twitter.com/rXtx1vBHad
Elon Musk has been directing subordinates to comb through Twitter's Slack and make lists of people making fun of him or his plans for firing. They've also been monitoring employee's tweets. Latest w/ @kateconger and @MikeIsaac)https://t.co/lMJKBrwbK4

After 12 amazing years and 3 weeks of chaos, I’m officially fired by Twitter.

Never expected I would have stayed this long, and never expected I would be this relieved to be gone.
I have a lot of stories to tell. But to my fellow (ex-)tweeps-#LoveWhereYouWorked 🫡 pic.twitter.com/lVWbqpcSXO
Scoop: another ~10 Twitter employees who made sassy or critical remarks about Twitter's current leadership on a Twitter internal Slack channel have been terminated overnight.

This seems like a fine time to look back on the rather decent API platform our team built at Twitter.

One of your companies is under an FTC consent decree. Auto safety watchdog NHTSA is investigating another for killing people. And you’re spending your time picking fights online. Fix your companies. Or Congress will. https://t.co/lE178gPRoM

That Eli Lilly prank changed the Twitter game:

New goal isn't getting more and more people to laugh at terrible puns, it's getting Elon Musk sued by bigger and bigger multinational corporations until he files for bankruptcy.
Lol: Twitter sent an HR email to every laid off employee acknowledging it's late getting people their separation agreements and release of claims. But the company messed up the BCC and it has become a reply-all catastrophe.
