Why is that? I would bet large sums of money that these guys will have a bright future ahead of them, much of it because of the goodwill they get from working for DOGE.

It all depends on how persistent the new american system is.

During the WW2 german occupation of France, there were some french people who opted to enthusiastically work to support the german side, and they certainly benefitted short term from the goodwill earned

At the end of the occupation, a lot of them were shot or hanged by the resistance

That is a fantastically chreky comment.

10/10 no notes

And I reiterated that being good with computers is not a good predictor for how things work in highly-politicized government positions

Goodwill from whom exactly?

When the shit inevitably hits the fan from the massive amount of orgs they are dismantling, Musk and the DOGE will be used as a political scapegoat by Trump, that's how politics work.

Forgot the /s

Email me.

You say goodwill, we say “consulting” with companies that have directly benefited from their decisions and will benefit from their connections. Going from high positions in government into the post-government life of consulting and leadership positions is neither new nor indicative of the value of their work.

haha, the goodwill of ending up on a different black list, and never working again

As he has always done? Source of Elon throwing young engineers under the bus?

Anything to flame Elon another day innit?

I've come dangerously close to being acquired by one of his companies.

His management style is best described as humiliation and abuse.

Or to put it another way, you can build a lot of pyramids when you use disposable slaves.

Amazing that people sign up to be verified on Elon's tarpit and they funnily haven't heard anything about how Elon rewarded loyalty and perseverance there (hint: with a boot to the backside)

He’s not an engineer.

Then you've never watched any of Elon's interviews where he lays/discusses out designs of products and production lines of all of his companies in great detail?

I don't get how anybody can write "he's not an engineer". It makes 0 sense and kind of proves my point about anything to just rant on Elon another day.
