"Elon Musk, the Liz truss of the tech world. .imagine being so bitter you compare one of the worlds brightest and richest men to liz truss " Elon Musk is not bright. He takes credit for the work his talented engineers do. He was born rich in a family that got their wealth from apartheid emerald mining. He didn't start up Tesla nor Paypal. He bought them out and listed himself as the founder of both companies. The cracks are starting to show now with the acquisition of Twitter. | |||

"I personally have no thoughts on Musk. Twitter has a failed business model, if he can turn it around and make a success of it good luck to him. The post I responded to suggested that Musk had started saying the wrong thing and would put off potential Tesla buyers, who apparently all have the same opinions. If that is true and Musk has now started offending these people, he must have changed his views or nobody would have bought a Tesla in the first place. In my experience Tesla owners are either well paid public sector knobs or company car knobs who have graduated from BMW's. | |||

Now he is increasingly sounding like he isn't in their club, hence the vitriol.
"Hell hath no fury....." Etc.
Tbh, I think public transport should be encouraged, it’s cheaper and better for the environment. You better start saving up for ab electric car , you will be forced to drive one soon
I don't need to save up for one thanks. And no I won't. People will be driving petrol cars 30 years from now regardless of what happens. My guess is that in five to ten years EV's will be totally obsolete.
They won’t. I know change might be scary , but it is necessary, don’t be afraid, embrace the future imo, they will be different in ways I don't know. (maybe not ten years). Maybe more smaller, bike like vehicles.
The technology is improving rapidly, the combustion engine took over 100 years to get to the level it is now "agreed. Likewise the infrastructure. (Owner of an id3.) | |||

"Elon Musk, the Liz truss of the tech world. Yeah… overpaid The new blue tick is going to be a cluster… If Jack Dorsey does develop the alternative platform he is threatening to…. Musk is done!! The irony of the thing that potentially takes down tesla is his big headedness at twitter .. juicy! Unless he changes his ‘views’ it will deter the very the type of people who buy Tesla’s . He seems to be siding with people who are right wing and climate change deniers, not clever when your selling electric cars
That is the crux of the issue. The rich metropolitan liberal elite thought that Musk was one of them, what with his "saving the planet" and promise of a future where only they could drive his expensive cars on empty roads while the knuckle dragging plebs are crammed on trains and walking miles to work in the rain.
Now he is increasingly sounding like he isn't in their club, hence the vitriol.

Electric cars aren't scary at all. If I want one I'll buy one. I prefer not to waste money on over priced sub optimal products that are worse than the ones they are intended to replace.
My 17 year old diesel does 680 miles on one tank. When electric cars do that I'll buy one. And I'm talking real world miles, not the snake oil ranges that the car manufacturers are churning out with government permission.
But sure, it's "progress". "You are the future".
Be careful, you will get stuck in the past , "The "progressive" speaks. If only I keep deluding myself that I am the future, it will be so. | |||

"Elon Musk, the Liz truss of the tech world. .imagine being so bitter you compare one of the worlds brightest and richest men to liz truss Elon Musk is not bright. He takes credit for the work his talented engineers do. He was born rich in a family that got their wealth from apartheid emerald mining. He didn't start up Tesla nor Paypal. He bought them out and listed himself as the founder of both companies. The cracks are starting to show now with the acquisition of Twitter." Your summary doesn't really tell the whole story and calling him not bright, is well, not bright. He founded x.com along with 2 others and a merge with confinity produced Paypal, that eventually got snapped up by ebay for 1.5billion. He saw a future in Tesla and when the founders were looking for backing Musk invested and became the largest share holder, the rest is history. What I take away from this is his unique ability to see the value, the future or application of services and gets onboard early. Far from dim in my opinion, if you simply don't like him, fair enough but be realistic, he has been far more successful than you or I will ever be. If that makes him not very bright, what does that make you and I? | |||

Why do you think he spent 3 months getting out of the deal before giving in to the inevitable or having to pay 1 billion to get out He is well over his skies on this one | |||

All the ones that have been got rid of have been paid up front 3 months which apparently is 50% more than they would get under consolations ect.
No wonder twitter was losing money all the time as 8,000 employees who mostly work remotely seems to be an over large workforce.
Considering that it’s an internet based business why the need for massive office block buildings full of the twitter Branding when it’s all done on laptops using the internet? | |||

"There seems to be a lot of fuss over the new $8 a month blue check-mark fee. If Twitter means that much to a person we're sure they can find the $8 a month for it." Twitter means very little to many. Their reputation does tho. It's an insurance rather than an investment. I'd be pissed as Twitter are monetising a conflict of interest. They do naff all to ban clones and imposters. | |||
