This is a freshman CS/IT major's attempt at humor. Most of us learn and grow out of it and/or get the memes right, but Elon isn't smart and isn't actually capable of understanding how stupid this looks

No IT major would fuck the syntax like that, this is a script kiddie hooting through a mouthful of cheetos

Musk has no teal programming credentials to speak of I thought. His degree(s) are physics and economics.

Funnily enough he doesn't even have a physics degree. He has been wrongly claiming that forever, and one joke is that's one reason he bought Twitter, because the guys there wouldn't shut up about that

That's why the plural is in parenthesis.

He bought Twitter because he had to. He made a legally binding offer to purchase it at a soecific price per share as a joke and then was forced to follow through because Jack Dorsey et al did not take it as a joke.

Elon's forced purchase of Twitter is proof how dumb he can be.
