The Decline and Fall of Twitter

Elon Musk was forced to buy Twitter with the Chancery Court of Delaware held to his head, and he's taking it out on the employees and users. Every day brings new layoffs, resignations, and firings.


Somewhere, down in the bowels of Twitter, according to former engineers there, there are dozens of those little sticks holding the whole thing up, and one of them is going to snap soon.

So, in between wandering though there, glass of wine in hand like a Roman Senator as the first flakes of ash fall in Pompeii, I'm going to wake up this blog. Hope to see some of you back here.
