Elon Musk states he will resign as CEO

I would say he's correct in one sense about the media: everything they publish about him is fake because he's a liar that can't be trusted.
I agree with you that it would insane for a CEO to take the job. What would even be the purpose of the CEO? Elon would continue to destroy advertiser relationships and make decisions without consulting the CEO.
He'll still be the owner and run part of everyday business. Whatever policies might change in the future, monetization, app features, funding, hiring or firing I think people will assume Elon initated those.
Who'd want the job as CEO? You'd be a puppet CEO at best, constantly being told what to do by Musk and constantly undermined by his latest antics and pronouncements.
So, he will still shadow over everything, making hit and run design and feature decisions, leaving the teams to clean up the messes.
I want innovation, and I hope this twitter drama distraction doesnt deviate from the free speech focus
He just bailed.
> I hope this twitter drama distraction doesnt deviate from the free speech focus
I think if there is one thing that is clear from all this then it is that unrestricted free speech and social media are fundamentally at odds with each other, and that the bulk of the people advocating for unrestricted free speech are doing so from malicious intent rather than because they are so concerned about government repression.
After taking a poll if he should continue working at Twitter. The poll was in favor of him continuing. He did not honor the poll despite using the same language as Musk to say the poll is binding.
Birds of a feather...
I don't understand. He's... selling the CEO position, rather than paying?
He's done everything possible to make to make sure no one wants it, not least of all promising to saddle the new CEO with an utterly incompetent, can't fire CTO. (But also pointing out how unattractive the job is in other ways, given that Twitter—by Musk’s description—has been hurtling toward bankruptcy since his bid for it became public, thar whoever took it would also be expected to make a sizable investment into Twitter, etc.)
Nothing. Elon Musk is his own poison pill. He broke it, he owns it.
So, like everything? Surely development and operations covers the majority of what Twitter actually does
