There is a huge amount of space between saying that "We're going to fail" and promising something will be done in "6 months".
> Musk is what plenty of entrepreneurs are...over-confident
The real world describing this is delusional. Which I don't think he is (or was at that point anyway).
- chiefalchemist 3y agoI'm not seeing that space. In fact, given what we know about startups, "in 6 months" has better odds of happening than pitching and ignoring the high risk (i.e., failure is inevitable). I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you, simply asking you to show me the space you speak of.
- Wytwwww 3y ago> I'm not seeing that space. Really? You don't see anything between "we're certain to fail" and "were going to accomplish this thing (even though we haven't got the slightest clue how) in X months"? Would you feel differently about it if Musk said they'll do it in 3 weeks? Because I don't, besides "6 months" being slightly easier to believe.
