San Francisco, November 16: Elon Musk says Twitter is a software and servers company at its heart and wants employees to decide by Thursday evening if they want to remain a part of the business, according to an email the new owner sent to Twitter workers.
Musk wrote that employees “will need to be extremely hardcore” to build “a breakthrough Twitter 2.0″ and that long hours at high intensity will be needed for success. Twitter Starts Working on End-to-End Encryption for Direct Messages on Android.
Musk said Twitter will be much more engineering-driven, with employees who write “great code” comprising the majority of the team. The billionaire, who completed the USD 44 billion takeover of the San Francisco company in late October, has already fired much of its full-time workforce by email on November 4 and is moving to eliminate an untold number of contract jobs.

“Whatever decision you make, thank you for your efforts to make Twitter successful,” Musk wrote.
