The Space Systems Command satellite was launched 12 days before the OTV lands, after a nearly 3 year mission in orbit.
X-37B lands Nov 12th after 908 days in space:
The US military’s experimental X-37B space plane is back on Earth, having completed a mysterious 908-day mission. While we’ll probably never know everything the autonomous spacecraft got up to while it was in space, it did it long enough to set a new record for time spent in orbit. Previously, the X-37B’s record was a measly 719 days in orbit.
On Nov 1st, Space Systems Command sends up a secret satellite https://www.extremetech.com/extreme/340615-falcon-heavy-rocket-aces-first-launch-in-3-years
The government declined to explain what, exactly, it was launching with the latest Falcon Heavy. All we know is the satellites (USSF-44) are part of Space Systems Command’s innovation and prototyping division, which focuses on the rapid development of space technology. Whatever it is, it weighs a lot. This is only the third operational launch of the Falcon Heavy, not including the 2018 maiden flight during which Elon Musk launched his Tesla Roadster into space. The first mission deployed a massive telecom satellite for Arabsat, and the other was another secret Department of Defense project in 2019.

Musk looking to cut around half of the workforce -internal plans
Employees file class action lawsuit against Twitter
Nov 4 (Reuters) - Twitter Inc temporarily closed its offices on Friday after telling employees they would be informed by email later in the day about whether they are being laid off.
The move follows a week of uncertainty about the company's future under new owner Elon Musk.
The social media company said in an email to staff it would tell them by 9 a.m. Pacific time on Friday (12 p.m. EDT/1600 GMT) about staff cuts. "In an effort to place Twitter on a healthy path, we will go through the difficult process of reducing our global workforce on Friday," said the email sent on Thursday, seen by Reuters.

On Thursday evening, all employees received an email stating that they will be informed of their employment status at 9 A.M. PT on Friday. Each email will be sent with the subject line “Your Role at Twitter.” If an employee is keeping their job, they’ll be notified via their work email — if they’re let go, they’ll be notified on a personal address.
“To help ensure the safety of each employee as well as Twitter systems and customer data, our offices will be temporarily closed and all badge access will be suspended,” the email reads. “If you are in an office or on your way to an office, please return home.”
