Elon Musk calls for ‘anyone’ left at Twitter who can write software to meet him, or fly in, to help him ‘better understand’ Twitter’s tech

Twitter loses payroll department, other financial employees as part of mass resignation under Elon Musk

A large portion of Twitter’s financial organization, including its payroll department, left the company on Thursday in response to an ultimatum from Elon Musk that has seemingly backfired.

Along with the payroll department resigning, Twitter’s US Tax team and its financial reporting team also resigned, two people familiar with the matter said, matching several internal messages seen by Insider. All three segments of the company were part of Twitter’s finance and accounting organization. While accounting was “less impacted” by resignations on Thursday, that part of the organization is smaller now, too, one of the people said.

Twitter began about 15 years ago as a Ruby on Rails website. During its subsequent expansion much has been rewritten, but apparently with a variety of different languages and technologies. By now, it is a mature system, by which I mean it is a hodge-podge of interacting applications which have grown up over the year and which are documented only by files in individual developers’ private file systems and email troves.

Far-left Tiffany Cross is gone from MSNBC.

That's a win for the country. One hateful black racist down the tubes...

"I can't help but keep thinking, this is kind of the beginning of the end of Twitter."

Yes it is the beginning of the end of Twitter's biased face. It is the beginning of a new, more effective, more popular, free speech supporting version of Twitter! Hurrah!
