Dear CDC friends. Today was the most foolish of April Fool's days. We have not just lost jobs. With entire teams and offices being cut, we have lost vast amounts of institutional knowledge. Take the time you need to grieve. Then join your fired colleagues in the fight.

When I heard Musk say this on Tuesday, my assumption was that it was a programming issue. Because I can code and have written to databases and because I am familiar with other examples of default values being misinterpreted.
Yet somehow Musk isn't.
