Wierd Elon was claiming 134m people viewed the poll but only 15m bothered voting

Dunno, probably about right.
I looked at it on my usual twitter app, but this app doesn't support/display polls so I copied the URL to paste into a private browser window to see what the totals were.
I then checked again a bit later, and then again after the poll had closed. So I'm probably responsible for at least 8 views that would be hard not to consider unique given my network setup.
(I didn't bother voting either.)

Can I ask why, if you were interested to enough to follow it and check it multiple times, you weren't interested enough to cast a vote?
Your explanation makes sense for why the number of views might be so high

Morbid curiosity, aversion to twitter polls + apathy. I'm mostly a read-only user of Twitter. I rarely ever hit like and rarely retweet stuff.
As the Twitter app on my phone doesn't handle polls I'd have to faff around logging in on a computer if I really wanted to vote, and there's almost literally no point at all in participating in a twitter vote. Plus it's Musk & Trump and I really don't give a flying fuck about either.

And I'm sure I've read somewhere that the loan he took from JP Morgan to buy twitter used Tesla (and space x?) as collateral? So if that's not paid, he loses Tesla shares, and as the value of them (the shares) goes down he loses more and more of them.
Obviously he's never going to go to zero himself, but he's at financial risk I believe.

This is the thing he and his fan boys miss.
His finances will have already been structured so that his family are taken care of. And if he filed for bankruptcy he's going to make sure he doesn't leave his house.
So when he says he doesn't care about money what actually means is yachts and RM watches. Not literally having to live in social housing, repaying debts and being unable to build a safety net.

Yes, there's presumably no loss (apart from incarceration or something extreme like that) that would threaten his, or any, billionaires lifestyle.
It must be the first thing that they address. His own valuation is higher than oil majors market cap; there must be hundreds of people employed solely to manage it. Bet they're delighted right now.

It was real, but it was on his Truth.Social site (a Mastodon instance no less): https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/108636743295734643

Twitter down to 2700 employees from the 7500 when he 5ook over. Musk claims this has been a "moderate wing" takeover, not a right wing takeover. Shortly after he unbanned Andrew Tate, Jordan Peterson and Trump.

It’s the focus on the individual that gets me - good products come from teams, and it’s not uncommon, at least in my experience, for the individually amazing dev to be a drag on a team. A dev with exceptional ability also needs to be able to communicate what they’re doing to other lesser mortal. These folk do exist, but there are less of them than people that turn out unsupportable crap that’s, in isolation (ie. looks great in a “passing the desk code review test”) fantastic.
I think google did some research suggesting that the best products were built with teams with high levels of psychological safety - and that was a far greater factor than individual ability.
