    There was honestly a period of time where I thought melon-musk was onto something about actually needing a tiny fraction of bazingas to keep the website going. Recent events have not necessarily proven that wrong, just that firing 80% of people loses the ones who know what they're doing first

      It's probably doable if it's a competent person at the steering wheel. Too bad that Musk's only criteria for who gets fired is whether they're willing to put up with his narcissism.

        Might be doable if you had that, if the whole thing was built well from the ground up, you had documentation to make sense of everything, and you were simply maintaining what already existed rather than pushing a bunch of new "features." But at that point we're talking about a fundamentally different company.
