I wouldn't trade one CEO working on actual important problems, like automobile deaths, global warming, space travel and universal internet access for a hundred CEOs working on the next social media startup or crypto idea. No matter how many stupid jokes he makes about "$420.69" on Twitter or whatever, he's had so much more quantifiable impact on the world.
- m463 6y agoI think the "$420.69" jokes are a sort of biomarker. Sort of like self-deprecating humor might not be the entire picture of mental health, but a sign that it is probably ok. EDIT: I think if Elon Musk gets too serious, or gets shut down, I suspect some ingredient of entrepreneurial spirit might be lost. The "do the right thing poorly" vs "do the wrong thing correctly"
- sabhiram 6y agoHmm, he certainly is working on automobile deaths by releasing this nonsense, and giving unsuspecting masses confidence that they should not have.
