What country are /you/ talking about? In my city, there are homeless people living in tents under every overpass, in every empty lot, parking lots, tennis courts, in broken down cars, etc. You think these people have trust funds?

Nope, not for fun. Rather, they come from enterprise backgrounds where everything moves at a snail's pace and their methods - which they refuse to update - are wholly unsuited to a fast-moving company. > Or is it possible that they

This is just the nature of the tech industry. This board openly celebrates "disruption," "move fast break things," etc. If you work in tech, expect to constantly be updating your skills and learning/adapting to chan

by trs8080 4y ago
Yeah that's not the point. The point is that your billion dollar idea is worthless without someone to implement it. Without 9,400 people working for SpaceX, SpaceX doesn't exist. It relies on labor, same as any company.

And if nobody else wanted to work for Musk, he would have no company. There is no SpaceX without labor. It exists and has succeeded because of the hard work of ordinary people, not because of Musk. If SpaceX weren't there, they'd

They're not trying to sabotage anything. They're asking for SpaceX to disassociate itself from statements made by Musk, an individual, which harm the company.

Er no, as employees they're also paid partly in stock options (RSUs?). They're literal shareholders in the company, they have a say in how it's run. And I don't know about you, but many people don't just run away wh
