It's only a matter of time before either:
1) someone shoots him
2) he does something that he can't blag his way out of a jail sentence for
He's managed to avoid #2 a number of times already.
Particularly with the "paedo guy" thing.
Earlier this year I stated that "musk is a fucking idiot", the response i got to that was "but he's made a lot of money", "aye so fuck".
On seeing the diagram my first thought was that I'm curretly writing something more complex in a team of 6 developers, and if we fuck up people might die*.
Yes, that diagram was a bit special, basically
My Little First Technology Stack (colouring book version). As someone who used to manage a data platform with a substantial technology stack, all I can say is the the man is an true Business Genius for rendering so much complexity in such simple terms. Bejesus, you should see our current data architecture schema, you'd need a ocean-sized white board to write that out, it's the Lucid chart from Hell (actually not quite, you should see the one Finestre, the Demon of Such Things, has), though I credit her for some inspiration in these matters, though I really have to blame the engineering teams who maintain it. I'm going to write recommendations for their damnation.
Anyway, he's explaining this shit to the engineers that build and maintain it. There was some prime chin-stroking in the picture though.
Apparently he's currently asking everyone to send him weekly updates with 'code' etc. because like, yes, he'll understand it, and sure, isolated snippets of code are, erm, really fucking useful and exactly what you'd want a CEO of the large, foundering business to be doing.
