lol, but this isn't exactly uncommon. I actually like shipping source maps in production builds because it makes troubleshooting easier. who cares if someone might see un-minified javascript?

this isn't calling anything unless you have dev tools open and it will allow people on twitter's vpn to see the un-minified source when debugging. it's probably done on purpose.

of all the dumb things this is what got me most. I know he mostly got lucky in the first dotcom boom, but I would have thought that 20+ years in VC stuff would make anyone realize that headcount might actually be linked to revenue and that morale is a thing. “just reduce the denominator and boom free money”

at least we got the mahalo pint-of-bourbon-old-fashioned out of him being an idiot

The thing about VC investors, and especially ones like Calicanis, is that they invest in hundreds of companies and if even one pays off they consider themselves geniuses and not just lucky.

On the other hand: if this was standard practise wouldn't it have been noticed before elon's purchase?

yes it's big img_4346.jpg energy, but now you can't do development without loving up production. it is absolutely not an accelerator at all. its just taking 'move fast, break things' literally

I wonder if the people who talked him out of illegally firing all those people regret doing so now that it's clear twitter won't survive anyway

also lol @ :ghost: ghost employees, :ghost: I'm guessing it happened once at one of his companies and now is obsessed with it

Is the story in two years going to be that musk intentionally and aggressively destroyed twitter in the course of two weeks because twitter was bad and that was his plan all along, or do you think they're going to roll with the idea it's sjw groups pressuring advertisers to abandon the platform because they envy musk's brilliance?

I want to believe that some employee was desperately trying to save the site before all the companies decided to leave and restored it, only to be immediately fired by Musk
