Scope issues, mostly. I'm left unsure of what products to expect, so I'm less likely to follow up/check in later on. A lot of time is spent on the analogy, too, which may mean there's not much substance to say yet. It may have been worth waiting to announce until they had something specific to present. I don't know! I'm just an outsider/random person's perspective.

- WendyTheWillow 3y agoElon has taught me not to believe in that idea.
- nl 3y agoI don't think much of Elon either, but if he was starting a new company it's probably a good bet it's going to succeed (despite the Twitter debacle). I don't think there is a better predictor of future success than past success. Or at least I can't think of one - can you?
- WendyTheWillow 3y agoPast success... at what? The relevance of past success is likely a lot narrower than you may think. Neither person here has "past success" at pushing a vague idea-less organization through to value and profitability. In fact, I would wager both would caution against such an idea, absent their personal involvement.
