Inspiring? Elon Musk’s cost cutting strategy was he just decided not to pay people, not to pay his landlord, not to pay his janitors, not to pay his hosting companies, not to pay many Twitter employees, and not to bother following laws, because, presumably, “fuck you, I’m a billionaire.” If that’s inspiring to spez, I’m feeling really good about leaving his platform. Aaron Swartz must be spinning in his grave so fast we could generate power from it.

So now we know who Huffman wants to be when he grows up. Muskrat. And that wraps up the show for today folks. Time to pull the plug on Reddit.
@DarkGamer Sounds like Trump too.
@Skyler
I mean, I’m quite inspired to live without paying people for their services. I wonder if it will work for someone not yet a billionaire, though it’d make it easier to become one
What really irks me is that Elon Musk is essentially getting away with it too…
Musk is probably never going to have meaningful personal financial consequences for his behaviors, but it does seem like he’s destroyed his credibility with all but the alt-reich in record time.
Do you have a credible source ?
