Oh, it has a very long history of tech development, including that one guy whose name was stolen for that other overvalued EV company.
- tgv 3y agoI haven't seen much of that history, and Tesla might have been born in current Croatia, but was ethnically a Serb, but most importantly, he did most of his work in the US. I think that's what makes that car company more remarkable: talented tech/entrepeneur doesn't go to the States.
- BerislavLopac 3y ago> most importantly, he did most of his work in the US That is correct, and I agree that it's most important -- his ethnicity is completely irrelevant (no more than Steve Jobs's Syrian one) and his place of birth just slightly more, as it defined where he went for education (Graz and Prague) and early work (Budapest and Paris, which led directly to his move to the US). > I haven't seen much of that history Which is fair, especially considering the fact that it wasn't a separate country for most of its history. But things like electric speedometer, military torpedo, rubber hot water bottle and a few others came from there.
