      Going of memories:

      Didn’t he write a codebase that was so bad, that paypal throw it out when they realized what they had bought.
      Also did he finish his physics bachelor?

        Yes he did write bad code. I don’t believe the degree was even offered at that time as economics and physics are different departments

      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.
