Or Elon facilitates a hack/made it look like Elmo was hacked to deliver these tweets. You’ll never know, there is no oversight and no accountability for billionaire media empires.

University budgets are hard, even in a petro state. Gotta get that international student tuition at 10x the rate of domestic tuition to make sure they can pay for such things as are fundamental to the essential function of scholarship and higher learning:
- the university President’s 2nd private jet
- lobbyists to help protect academic journals that publish research paid for by public dollars for enormous profit
- many consultants that do important things like rebrand the university logo every years

- Comment on Micro-retirement 1 week ago:
No, vacation is typically paid time off, your position is still yours when you return, and your pay progression/seniority/benefits/etc at least pick up where you left off.
Retirement is unpaid (after 12-18 months you would not get a meaningful pension), and since your relationship with the company is over they are free to hire someone else into your position and they have no obligations to you regarding any other work benefit or convention.
Micro-retirement sounds like a fun way to avoid paying vacation and providing job stability, along the same lines as being an “independent contractor” often is.
