Has anyone in the payroll department written any code in the last year?  No, I didn’t think so![/quote]

What point are you attempting to make here?[/quote]

Sarcasm, I think. Elon seems to measure Twitter employees' worth by how much code they have written. Clearly, HR, payroll, compliance, legal, etc. are totally worthless then.[/quote]

Because a coder for Twitter will be hard to replace quickly, since they know the product, and the product is complex, whereas it's easier to replace a non-coder - HR and payroll are generic jobs and not likely to be vary enormously from company to company. You can't parachute a FB coder to Twitter and expect them to be productive on day 1.

That is not strictly true. While not as difficult to onboard as tech staff, there is always a learning curve with new positions, vis a vis payroll/HR systems, approval chains, and so on. [/quote]
