There are, but you need to remove personal cult from the filter. Musk did not design the rockets or come up with the idea of electric car - he cleverly positions himself as the technology guru running whole factories with his own hands but in fact it's a massive effort to hide the names of people who created his products and avoid giving them any credit.
- eloff 5y ago> he cleverly positions himself as the technology guru running whole factories with his own hands but in fact it's a massive effort to hide the names of people who created his products and avoid giving them any credit. Musk is quick to give credit to his employees if you've actually heard him talk. Also I in no way men to imply that he did anything single handed.
- rasputnik6502 5y ago>Musk is quick to give credit to his employees to whom, for example? And it's true i dont listen to his talks, maybe i missed important details.
- eloff 5y agoWhy are so quick to judge someone you don't know anything about?
- rasputnik6502 5y agoI don't judge, just state the fact that he will not let any of his employees take even smallest piece of the show. Everything is about Elon Musk and only him, no one else is allowed to speak or show any achievement - anonymous bunch of idiots who can't even run factory without Musk showing everyone how to do their job. And they would apparently be nothing without the self proclaimed genius. Sorry I thought it only happens in North Korea but I was wrong.
- eloff 5y ago> it's true i dont listen to his talks So you admit you don't know what you're taking about. Then you say the don't judge and then proceed to do exactly that. This is you: http://paulgraham.com/fh.html http://paulgraham.com/fh.html
- rasputnik6502 5y agoWe have some uninformed judgment here, don't you think? Btw I have heard enough of Musk talk to know what's on the show. Don't need to listen to it anymore.
- eloff 5y agoApparently not, because you don't know that he gives credit to his employees. You also say he calls himself a genius, but I've never heard him say that - although technically he may well be. Certainly he's well above average intelligence to teach himself rocket science. You have this opinion of him in your head and you're just trying to say that's the real Elon Musk. But it's not, and you haven't actually seen enough of him to know that. It's a strong opinion held in ignorance - which is something the world could use less of.
- rasputnik6502 5y agoThat's true i haven't seen him give credit to anyone but himself. We can agree here that he's a master of self promotion.
- pizzazzaro 5y agoWhen someone is in the top 3 richest men in the world? Most of the reasons for considering self-diagnosis valid fall apart. He doesnt lack access for a diagnosis, he can afford to see the doctor. He doesnt have to worry about any stigma - he's always been "that quirky executive figure" obsessed with buying the title of "Founder". Unless he wants to fight our world's pathologizing of Autism? And even then, he has the means to do so better with an official diagnosis. The rest of us have to worry about being shoved in a corner, with bosses assuming we're incapable of contributing to a team, and thus any work at a meaningfully profitable scale. So... Elon doing a self-diagnosis? Feels like it misunderstands the premise. Then again, we might be misreading his "coming out" moment.
