if you want to short tesla then this is one way to do it

I'm sorry, some clown launched an ETF that was just 7 different short TSLA positions? Short equity, long bear put spreads, short QQQ, long an inverse QQQ ETF, QQQ puts, short ARKK, long an inverse ARK ETF? https://t.co/IOTFSBqQtX

I just listened to Elon Musk on a Twitter Space that was intended for advertising partners. This is what he said at the outset. It's hard to come to any other conclusion that he has little understanding of human communication, or indeed behavior on the platform he owns. pic.twitter.com/ZiYtLNLd0a

he really is doing a lowtax

Elon in a Twitter space right now: "If someone tries to impersonate a brand, we will get rid of them and we will keep their $8. And they can keep doing that and we will do it again."

“Now truth can be a somewhat nebulous concept”…it’s like trying to discuss science on ILX, ha!

Dude would be a much more convincing idealist if he weren't such an aggressively shit-posting asshole.

well if it did, elon would be in violation for not timely reporting it to the SEC (he's been in trouble with the SEC before but not for that)

Musk right now casually walking through his grand payments vision for Twitter:

Users could link their online bank account to Twitter, he says. Then the company will offer "extremely compelling money market account to get extremely high yield on your balance". Add debit cards etc

The fanboys acting like this is some cunning plan... he didn't need to spend $44bn on Twitter to turn it into Venmobook.

Biden trolling Glenn Greenwald

Twitter is now blocking new accounts from its $8 Twitter Blue verified tier

The rule change is to tackle issue of new accounts being made which are then getting verified and used to impersonate high profile accounts

They should really look into why this is happening.

This reminds me of the Web 2.0 days when, breaking from the precedent established by Apple of masking the employees who work on products, companies would let individual designers and engineers, rather than the company, market new features. Essentially Esther is cooked and she doesn’t know it yet.

According to messages shared in Twitter Slack, Twitter’s CISO, chief privacy office, and chief compliance officer all resigned last night.

An employee says it will be up to engineers to “self-certify compliance with FTC requirements and other laws.”

In the same message, the employee said Twitter’s current head of Legal, Alex Spiro, said “Elon is willing to take on a huge amount of risk in relation to his company and its users, because ‘Elon puts rockets into space, he’s not afraid of the FTC.’”

why tie bank accounts to Twitter instead of just having everyone convert their life savings to dogecoin

Xxp - As I posted in the Twitter thread, Alex Spiro was the defense attorney for Aaron Hernandez.

I imagine the financiers who helped Musk bankroll this by loaning him tens of billions of dollars are feeling sick to their stomachs every single day.

more difficult than I look (Aimless), Thursday, 10 November 2022 18:56 (one year ago) link

the lenders will be bloodied but probably fine. it's musk's buddies who bought equity that are probably nervously tugging their collars.

From: Elon Musk [email removed]

Date: Nov 9, 2022 [time stamp removed]

To: Team

Sorry that this is my first email to the whole company but there is no way to sugarcoat the message.

Frankly, the economic picture ahead is dire especially for a company like ours that is so dependent on advertising in a challenging economic climate. Moreover, 70% of our advertising is brand, rather than specific performance, which makes us doubly vulnerable!

That is why the priority over the past ten days has been to develop and launch Twitter Blue Verified subscriptions (huge props to the team!).

Without significant subscription revenue, there is a good chance Twitter will not survive the upcoming economic downturn. We need roughly half of our revenue to be subscription.

Of course, we will still then be significantly reliant on advertising, so I am spending time with our sales & partnerships teams to ensure that Twitter continues to be appealing to advertisers.

This is the Spaces discussion that Robin, Yoel and I hosted today: [Link to Elon Q&A: Advertising & the Future removed]

The road ahead is arduous and will require intense work to succeed. We are also changing Twitter policy such that remote work is no longer allowed unless you have a specific exception. Managers will send the exception lists to me for review and approval.

Starting tomorrow (Thursday), everyone is required to be in the office for a minimum of 40 hours per week. Obviously, if you are physically unable to travel to an office or have a critical personal obligation, then your absence is understandable.

I look forward to working with you to take Twitter to a whole new level. The potential is truly incredible!

Thanks,

Elon

I fully expected him to shit the bed. I did not expect him to shit the bed, trip down the stairs while running the soiled sheets to the washing machine only to shit all over the stairs causing him to slip and fall ass first into the furnace where the pilot light ignites an explosion that showers the entire Bay Area in a gigantic shit-storm.
