Elon Musk sent an email this morning around 9 AM asking "anyone who actually writes software" to meet him at Twitter at 2PM today, amid a wave of departures at the company following a Thursday deadline for employees to recommit.

According to a source at Twitter, preliminary data at the company indicates that between 1,000 and 1,200 Twitter employees opted not to click "yes," by Thursday's deadline, on a form that required employees to affirm their intention to keep working at Twitter.
