| > I find it odd how people refuse to admit that Musk has made some errors. GP was merely trying to dunk on Musk and didn't have a real argument. I'm very aware of Musk's failures. Heck, they are the very things that define his companies and enable their successes. Every rocket explosion was a failure on the road to success. Every over-promise drives his people to work that much harder. But you want to dunk on Musk a little more, fine, let's get this out of the way. (Not a comprehensive list.) Bad: - Twitter looks like a bad deal (so far), and is a public opinion disaster - FSD did not deliver the promised value to its original customers (future remains to be seen) - Boring has under-delivered and is not growing explosively (but they are still in business) - His general skepticism of any COVID precautions (I think his entrepreneurial bias is behind this) Worse: - The handling of the cave rescue aftermath Arguable: - His political statements - Twitter layoffs - Personal life stuff (not really our business) - Work-at-home policies (his track record says he knows what he is doing here) There. Can we pin these somewhere so we don't have to keep hijacking every Elon post with these "revelations"? |
