Just a neophyte question, although I guess even Elon doesn't know for real, how many users does Twitter have?

Not sure how FTX debacle has any parallels to Elon Musk's productive career, Pay Pal, Space X ,Tesla and his latest adventure into Twitter.. all except the last are immensely successful endeavors... If you want to opine over wasted effort / money, look no further then our Nation's Capital ...

"This means Twitter’s net margin, going forward, is now about 28%. By way of comparison, Apple and Google both maintain net margins in the 22 to 25% range. In other words, Twitter is now more profitable than those companies."

Still lots to be determined, that said, he is smarter than your average bear.Last edited by JP; 12-03-2022, 10:11 AM.

He became disinterested in Pay Pal because the partners did not want to go in the direction he envisioned for it. So he backed away, but kept his holdings. Read up on that time in his career and you can see what he now plans to do with Twitter. Picture a combination of Twitter, PayPal, YouTube, Square, and your bank and you will be coming close.
One interesting thing that I heard the other day from a Tesla / SpaceX veteran is that the way Elon sets company goals is rather unique. He has a 1000 year mission for each of his companies, and everyone that works there knows what it is and that they are working toward that goal. "Making Humanity MultiPlanetary" is one, and "Accelerate the world's transition to sustainable energy" is another. We are fortunate to be alive at the same time as this individual. He just put his fortune on the line again so that we could see the level of depravity existing in our leaders and the corporate media before it becomes too late.

#116.101-13-2023, 07:37 PMEditing a commentWell beyond my 'pay grade' ... do you know the base of his chips, silicone is nearing its chemical ability to compress and store bits..my understanding is the next breakthrough will be in saline solutions.. Even if Musk fails at Twitter, he will rebound to continue to add value to society!

Chips are silicon TSMC 7nm currently, but pushing forward of course. Here’s a great tutorial at depth on DOJO. Quite a machine - and I am familiar with supercomputing back to the Cray XMP era. https://youtu.bee/uE2f7kiRhmw
