Makes me wonder how good he is at rocket business. And makes me wonder how good Boeing aerospace is if they make Elon look like a genius.
I’m embarrassed to admit but I brought into the Musk hype early on. You know Tesla and SpaceX.
But the second he started talking about programming (something I know a lot about) I realized he doesn’t have a clue.

He ‘s sufficiently geeky to speak the language, to invest in things beyond the next quarter and be willing to take a risk in things not yet proven to be profitable. Those are good things for a ceo.
Maybe I give him too much credit (like I used to with Trump), but in the beginnings mining I assumed he was forced into twitter after running his mouth off into what could be securities fraud if he didn’t follow through. And he’s so lost

“CEO is smart because he tried to look for profit in multiple quarters at the same time” would make a great headline at Forbes

Electric vehicles and space exploration are two things that need to happen for humanity’s long term survival. It isn’t gullibility to applaud someone for moving either thing forward, even if they’re just the money guy. We live in a capitalist society, that is just what was going to happen short of another FDR or JFK restoring trust in American government.
It’s ignoring the evidence afterwards that is the problem, and you didn’t, so there’s nothing to be ashamed of.

Thank you, that’s very kind.
