A Twitter engineer who has spent 6 years working on Twitter for Android publicly called out Musk in a tweet.
Instead of privately addressing this with Elon Musk, the Twitter engineer blasted his boss on Twitter (not a good idea).
I have spent ~6yrs working on Twitter for Android and can say this is wrong. https://t.co/sh30ZxpD0N

Elon Musk responded to the Twitter engineer.
“Then please correct me. What is the right number?” Elon Musk said.
“Twitter is super slow on Android. What have you done to fix that?” Musk said in a follow up tweet.

A fellow techie warned the Twitter engineer to take the issue with Musk privately rather than attack his boss publicly.
“I have been a developer for 20 years. And I can tell you that as the domain expert here you should inform your boss privately.” the techie warned.
“Trying to one up him in public while he is trying to learn and be helpful makes you look like a spiteful self serving dev.” he said.
The Twitter engineer remained defiant and said Elon Musk was in the wrong and should have been the one who asked him questions privately over Slack or email.
Maybe he should ask questions privately. Maybe using Slack or email.
