Can't the dude afford to hire his own independent contractors? Why bother Tesla employees with this?

  Well they’re either on company time or being paid separately, either way I doubt they’re doing it for free!

  Trust. He probably has a few engineers he trusts.

    And what “trust” probably means here is that they have technical chops but can also be relied on to tell Elon what he wants to hear.

  It's easier to reach out to one of your VPs and say "hey, I need a few folks" Whether they come from Tesla or are hired, Musk doesn't care. He just wants some DD

  Money is easy. Finding trustworthy people is hard.
