I wish we could spend less (collective) time here on HN talking about/worrying about Elon Musk.
We're (allegedly) here for "anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity".
What SpaceX and/or Tesla are doing could certainly satisfy that, worrying about Musk himself certainly isn't.
- franciscop 10d agoAgreed; I mentioned Elon because the post made the reference quite explicit by saying "trillionaires", probably given the context Bezos or Gates would've been better examples though.
- bergie 10d agoFair point, but "making billionaires multi-billionaires" didn't have quite the same ring to it :-D (I'm the author of that blog post)
