Elon Musk moving servers himself shows his 'maniacal sense of urgency' at X, formerly Twitter

Elon Musk's most valuable lieutenants at Tesla and SpaceX had learned ways to deflect his bad ideas and drip-feed him unwelcome information, but the legacy employees at X, formerly Twitter, didn't know how to handle him.

Anyone have any specific career goals for 2024? Mine is to dive into ML/AI and attend 4-5 Cybersecurity/AI conferences.

I used Professor Messer's videos on youtube (free courses for all three mainline CompTIA exams) and I also bought Mike Meyers courses on udemy. These helped me pass all three exams.

VS Code.. Nothing beats it for me. Even though I wish the debugger display info like Visual Studio. But could be I just didn't take the time to really configure it.

Crazy. I was listening to Walter Issaic on Lex Fridman podcast. On one hand that drive/craziness is what got him to be where he's at, but it must really suck to work with him. But then again those employees who directly deal with him I'm sure has big salaries and can easily find another job. So I don't feel that bad for them.

Sorry just saw this post, thanks breh

Hey breh I been a IT Business analyst for about 7 months so far.

I would suggest getting a ITIL certification learning agile, and Excel(the most annoying part of the job).

I am also technically a software/hardware asset manager within the same role.

I've worked for so many idiots who act just like Elon. And think their always the smartest person in the room. They almost always crash and burn like he did in this instance. Then try to rely on privilege to survive the disaster they caused.

Yeah I would have jumped ship as soon as he bought Twitter. He comes across as the type of boss who would get in the way of trying to do the right/good things and the types only cause chaos

Yup. have 1 person on my team like this. Which is crazy because even if you are the smartest, if you are and a$$hole, you hold the team back.

I will say he gets results but he's commanding some of the smartest people in their field. Which seems to always be missed by outsiders or people who look up to him. I do admire his work ethic but its like with Steve Jobs. You have the best engineers! which causes a negative rippling effect with other companies because they want that same productivity from their employee's.
