> Working "hardcore", where 100-hour weeks are _required_, and only "exceptional" performance is acceptable, is _inhuman_.

this is something you and everyone else read into the email that was simply not written there. out of curiosity, what drives you to take "hardcore" and "this will mean working long hours" just about as exaggeratedly, hyperbolically uncharitably possible? I can't find a valid logical reason for doing this, yet everyone seems to be doing it, and I can't figure it out.

This is literally what Musk did first thing when he stepped into Twitter premises. He told teams to ship a feature in a short timespan or be fired, which required them to work over the weekends and sleep at their desk.

I base the 100-hour week thing on reports that it's the expectation at SpaceX and Tesla.
