Musk sounding smart in a friendly interview is not the same as actually designing rockets.

  I'm happy to see information to the contrary, but so far this is the closest I've seen to actual human/work style interactions with him. What would you suggest as alternative data sources which could be used to build a more accurate opinion?

      Engineering optimism, even egregious optimism, is not the same as a con job.

        Musk is smart enough to know those were lies.

    This is absolutely despicable. There is no way Musk doesn't know that what he posted is a lie. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2022/oct/30/elon-musk-twitter-baseless-conspiracy-theory-paul-pelosi-attack https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2022/oct/30/elon-musk...

  No, but it is very close to creating an intellectually friendly atmosphere for smart people who want to design rockets.
