Yeah, what he doesn’t understand is that the government bureaucracy that’s been created is the only reason many of the departments of government work as _quickly_ as they do.
While we as engineers see what appear to be obvious slow inefficiencies (like: “I could build a system to replace all that the DMV does so people won’t need to sit in that waiting room!”) the reality is we don’t even understand all that the DMV does.
I feel that’s the trap Musk falls into, and it became blatantly obvious when he took over X.
Aside from liberals boycotting X for political reasons (a completely non-technical issue), technically the site seems to work perfectly fine even after Musk drastically reduced the bureaucracy behind it.
Most of the “bureaucracy” came from the non technical side.
Which is why X is under multiple investigations by the EU and advertisers have left the company in droves.
I’m boycotting X because I think Elon Musk is an ass and I don’t want to support him in any way. Twitter died to me when it became X and I’m totally fine with that.
X is a cesspool now anyways
