George Geohot Hotz rose to prominence back in 2008 by launching an iPhone and, more particularly, launching a massive hacker on the PlayStation 3. The task, the cashier, and the aid of Elon Musk was much more difficult when he called for help. The billionaire CEO reportedly offered him a multi-million long-term contract for Hotz to join Tesla, after having previously led a company called Comma AI into a major rival in driver-assist technologies. Hotz instead offered to Elon, on an internship with Twitter, a 12-week period before he went to the social media giant in November to quit even before the date of the said session was over.
He could offer Twiiter four weeks.
After buying it, Elon Musk tried to turn over Twitter. Despite coming in to rule out issues like non-dismissable login popups and inaccurate search features that require familiarity with the code, George Hotz never planned to stay with Twitter for a long time. A short break in San Francisco where the company is founded and the publicity surrounding the company’s fixation of Twitter is all he has wanted.
But as the software engineer turns out, that 12-week internship was 8 weeks too many. After almost a month of reading Twitters codes, George Hotz declared that aint it in a follow-up tweet to his announcement. He said that he’d also apologize for being wrong. One of the main reasons for his resignation was that he wanted to imagine the environment of a startup, and found something very different.
Between reheated food, a questionable commitment to free speech, existing office politics and the push for features, I was pretty sure I can do nothing about it here.
Elon is a highly qualified management specialist. I have the ability to run a 20-member eng team.

Following his already established employer’s footsteps, Hotz sent a tweet of the future of the company. Despite 63.6% of respondents voting no and he’s saying abide by the results, here we are.
Hotz leaves the social media giant a day after joining it, leaving a serious question. What are we doing for Twitter in the near future? Who can fix this mess, and whom will Elon Musk confer this huge responsibility, particularly now that he is on his way out?
Hotz finished off saying that he was still fighting for Musk’s vision on Twitter. According to Hotz, the wrong-looking CEO did a phenomenal job considering the situation.
