Morbi bridge was built in 1879. It functioned well for more than 140 years, when it was closed for repairs. They repaired it for six months and re-opened it. It collapsed in 4 days. Only we can repair a 150 year old bridge so amazingly well, that it collapses in 4 days.

Seeing all these people who were just recently very, very concerned with people losing their jobs due to "cancel culture" now gleefully mocking people losing their jobs makes me think that maybe they're not quite as principled as they claimed.

First, the author draws a parallel with smoking, declaring that stigmatising & shaming smokers was central to reducing cigarette consumption. This is quite the claim, and ignores the fact that *by far* the biggest factor in reducing rates of smoking was heavily taxing cigarettes https://t.co/tvGDTHQ5x6

For anyone trying to make sense of Musk having Twitter engineers print out their code and show it to Tesla engineers… my view is we don’t need to look far to see what is happening. Elon doesn’t like to pay severance. From my coverage in Tesla’s secret layoffs in @Pragmatic_Eng: https://t.co/2YJh6KvT3q
— Gergely Orosz (@GergelyOrosz) Oct 30, 2022
Twitter engineers were asked to print out their last 30 to 60 days of code so that Elon Musk could review it. Eventually someone realized how bad of an idea it was and they were then told to shred all of the print outs. This is going to be a fun ride. 😆 https://t.co/n5MsY7E2wF

In typical fashion, half the breaking news about what is happening at Twitter, as posted on Twitter, turns out to be false. These are not data engineers: they’re pranksters, pretending to have been fired. It works: I see this tweet quoted as source across my feed. https://t.co/a6vEQI86uN

Can’t believe stuff like this is tending: but it’s fake as I confirmed with Twitter software engineers. While Tesla engineers might have reviewed the code, no one is “locked out”.
