  This place is if anything overly tolerant of Naughty Old Mr Car’s nonsense; HN public opinion on immensely-hyped things which turn out to be a bit shit has an extremely wide turning circle. Witness Bitcoin; HN is now generally sceptical, but it was _late_. Similar happening with Musk now; the penny is dropping that maybe he is _not_ in fact a magical super-genius (this is, of course, a penny that dropped for anyone sensible with, at latest, that Thailand cave diver thing, but HN’s hivemind is slow on the uptake).
