Twitter to lay off 25% of workforce in first round of job cuts

If some random group of people who don't know me, don't know my labor or my legacy at an organization, don't know my technical abilities, etc. fired me based off the quantity (and subjective quality) of code I produced in the last 60 days, even with 10 minutes to defend myself, I would be spitting mad at the disrespect and dehumanization. Particularly if I know I was being fired days before a stock refresh.

No, this is pissing on people and claiming it's raining.

That's fine. Elon doesn't want you to work for him.

There are people who build multiple successful companies and then there are who prioritize well-being and pick some weird hill to die on.

Elon is not a software engineer. He also has created nearly $1.5 Trillion of Market Value if you are looking for numbers.
