Musk is known to make predictions which fail and to make announcements which are either false or misleading.
Musk does a lot - but says even more, and some of what he says robs him of trust.
- TeMPOraL 11y agoHe seems to have a typical engineer problem with underestimating time, but at least is not trying to bullshit anyone; even in his "misleading" announcements he's straigth and to the point. You can see that he honestly does his best to deliver. It's a refreshing quality.
- avmich 11y agoMay be he doesn't know something? Elon several times praised Merlin engines - which are certainly quite impressive. But he seemingly omitted some other rocket engines which were technically even better. He's very good in delivering - and delivering a lot, but I think he still promises even more. And that's not too typical for engineers.
