From the way that Musk has recently embarrassed himself arguing with transit experts on twitter over the last few weeks I am increasingly believing in the possibility that Musk thinks he's the smartest guy in the room, is completely ignoring experts in the field, is trying to do something that actually is impossible, and he's doomed to failure.
- acover 9y agoHe's done the impossible how many times?
- avs733 9y ago0 Literally anything he has done is by definition not impossible. He has done at least 2 very difficult things but let's engage in a discourse grounded in reality please.
- acover 9y agoI mean things claimed to be impossible.
- dotancohen 9y agoThe impossible as defined by experts in the field? Most people count three. _Which_ three pretty much depends on the expertise of the person asking! Paypal, Rocketry and defense startup, hyperloop, electric cars, marketing, upturning the oil industry, etc. etc, not to mention his personal (non-business) achievements.
