I'm seeing speculation that Musk's announcement of an unnamed female CEO for #Twitter to take over in 6 weeks suggests that he has cloned a female version of himself. Unlikely but amusing.

@lauren That would be amazing but almost certainly this is the extreme version of the phenomena of elevating members of an underreprented group to being in charge only once disaster is inevitable.Oh look they have a term for that: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_cliff

@lauren I'm struggling to answer: what set of character attributes would make a success of this job, and how would we define "success" in this context?Musk's going to remain as CTO, and we know that'll effectively end up with CEO reporting to him. Even the natural hierarchical outcome given his equity seems primed for disaster, but the idea of Musk being a tame embed as CTO on an org chart is off-the-charts nuts.

@lauren I wouldn’t put it past #Elon to literally show up in a wig just as a prank that he would find hilarious for all of 10 minutes.
