Comment on 8 yr old me after my parents did my woodworking assignment
bmdhacks@lemmy.world 2 months agoFormer twitter engineer here. Maybe he paid more attention at his other companies but Elon was comically clueless about how the twitter machine worked. Hiring geohot and thinking a firmware cracker could make heads or tails of a massively distributed system was pure idiocy.

Okay and how do you really think twitter has been affected? Is it less influential than before he bought it? Less functional? As an outsider it sure doesn’t seem like it.

It’s quite a bit less functional. There have been dozens of high profile outages and service interruptions.
