#Musk is doing more layoffs at #Tesla. It’s sad, and it’s not a surprise. Tesla’s model line is stale, Musk’s pet cybertruck is a failure, and the stock has tanked. Those who stay will experience an “absolutely hard core” work environment, meaning they might mean enjoy sleeping at the office, like Twitter, with false promises of future compensation. https://www.theverge.com/2024/4/30/24145133/tesla-layoffs-supercharger-team-elon-musk-hard-core
There’s a healthy amount of disapproval for #Twitter#X’s product direction in this (I don’t like it either). At the same time, Twitter’s change in product direction has changed its user base. It’s no longer representative of the general population.

In fact, in a preliminary #hearing last week I heard #Space Karen Elon Musk say as he was charged with animal necrophilia “Gee your honor I didn’t know the cat was dead when I was #fucking it.”
#Tesla’s Profit Fell 55%, Adding to Concerns About Its Strategy
The first-quarter results will very likely fuel worries that competitors will continue grabbing a bigger slice of a #market dealing with slowing #ElectricCar sales.
#Musk wants a $56B pay package while #Tesla stock is cratering; in part due to market conditions and in part due to Musk himself. Tesla has real competition (including China) in a struggling #EV market that may not improve until EV tradeoffs improve. Musk made a $100K #Cybertruck that fails as a truck instead, of an affordable $25K passenger vehicle which he canceled. Tesla has sold fewer than 4K trucks. He alienated liberal buyers who won’t buy Tesla because of Musk. https://www.axios.com/2024/04/23/tesla-earnings-elon-musk
