This must be satire right?

Day after day it all sounds crazier and more idiotic. And it is not even game development company with fixed shipping date for product. Not that even that could be justified reason.

No doubt this is wild but Twitter is fighting for survival — odds are it probably doesn't make it. So probably higher stakes than a shipping date for a game

I don't think Twitter was exactly dying or even fighting for survival when Elon took over. Bleeding yes. So doing it this ways from outside looks like management failure.

Yeah, totally agree that this is all self inflicted. At this point though, with advertisers spooked and ad revenue down by 70-90%, Twitter is definitely fighting for survival

“Crunch time all the time”. During the holiday season no less. The guy is a soulless monster.

Clearly humans are output machines and draining all creativity from their souls by burning the midnight oil is the way to build great products.

I’m excited for the next wave of companies to prove this mindset wrong. I think some will but perhaps ultimately the “hero coder” stories will prevail in popular media.

A quiet, comfortable place for hardworking employees to take a catnap sounds like a nice perk.
