> This sort of justifies the viewpoint that despite all his bluster, Elon will probably run Twitter the way a "reasonable executive" would. Not just release the hounds.

He literally just had every engineer print out the last 3 months of code lol

Literally. The engineers pushed and pressed the code until it oozed out of the base, java flowing across the room.

I understand he also laid off the entire data engineering team, that news being sourced from Messrs. Ligma & Johnson, two prankster nerds who went to the vicinity of Twitter HQ and walked around carrying cardboard boxes.

Definitely a story to be careful on

Yes, I saw that. The reporter behind this story says he has 4 sources and screenshots. I can't say it's 100% true but it seems much more likely than the Ligma/Johnson bit.
