The New York Times announced that the company Twitter has once again fired staff, and this time, it’s no less than 10% of the workforce that was let go.

This massive cutback at Twitter continues, after 200 cuts recently made by Elon Musk’s company.

The number of employees of the business is now less than 2000.

Twitter’s massive job cuts continued this weekend — as the company cut about 10% of its remaining staff, according to a report in the New York Times.https://t.co/A1QvoEi969

Remember that before Musk took over Twitter for 44 billion last fall, nearly 7,500 people were working for the social media platform.

This time around, the cuts affected product managers, data scientists and engineers working on machine learning and site reliability.

In addition to this cut, the team in charge of the monetization infrastructure went from 30 to eight employees, again according to the report.

Imagine for a moment finding a strange package from organized crime hanging on your clothesline while walking outside on a summer morning with a coffee in hand!

This type of scene is not a common occurrence, but a man living north of Montreal was stunned to find a package filled with cannabis, hashish, tobacco, a knife and cell phones, all worth $45,000.

According to information obtained by Radio-Canada, the merchandise was headed, with the help of a drone, to the Bordeaux prison (a Montreal Detention Facility).

It should be noted that the family of the resident in question, who wishes to remain anonymous, lives approximately four kilometers from the detention facility. The family was stunned to see this seven-metre long, tightly sealed serpentine object in their backyard.

The Montreal police rushed to the scene to ensure that the package quickly left a destination that was not its own.

According to the information available at this time, this package was destined for the window of one of the cells in the Bordeaux prison. This serpentine shape fits well in the backstage of a prison.

Note that no less than 300 complaints per year from residents who are disturbed by the noise of the many drones in the sky are filed.

According to a study from Dr. Ishan Paranjpe, from Stanford University, smoking too much cannabis would increase the risk of heart disease (coronary heart disease).

This is a crucial warning to those who smoke a lot of cannabis, a habit that increases the risk of a “silent killer” by 30%, it seems.

This drug, which is classified in the B category , can develop more early deadly diseases versus humans who do not smoke any.

The study in question was done on 175,000 adults in the U.S., while doctors were monitoring them medically very strictly and tightly.

Note that coronary heartdisease causes chest pain, shortness of breath, fatigue and can lead to a heart attack.

Cannabis smokers will need to be vigilant.
