I noticed people have been putting community notes on ads, I wonder how long that's going to last.

i don’t want to bet my ass :(

Oh, commit a crime? Just commit a crime? Why don't i strap on my crime helmet and squeeze down into a crime cannon and fire off into crime land, where crimes grow on crimees!

The bug is the feature. Firing 90% of the company doesn't just save you a ton of money, and doesn't just trim the fat or rot of a company. It removes any dissidents and skeptics who don't have total, unwavering, boot-licking loyalty. Even Musk fanboys were likely forced out just for questioning whether it was a good idea to fire 90% of them. The slightest hint of independent critical thinking is snuffed out by force, or leaves the company voluntarily when they see the writing on the wall, or they are merely unable to leave.

What else could that maneuver possibly produce except a small army of sycophants?

And then once you have those sycophants, it doesn't matter whether you make good or bad decisions, you will never ever be challenged on them. You don't have to worry about how your orders become reality or if you break any laws along the way, your gang of losers will make it happen and won't ask for a penny of overtime pay.

Hanlon's Razor is dead, at least as applied to Musk, because the malice and stupidity are one and the same.

EDIT: Consideration for H1B

It takes work to make it go away.

With a b, probably. With an s, less clear.

If you ask the people remaining on it, it's with a "t".
If you ask everybody else...
