weird how smart engineers always need a dumbass visionary to make them useful

Dumbass visionaries (read CEOs) are just the spokespeople OP. They're the ones who draw attention to it. Clowns dancing for the circus.

>>108518183
He's not an engineer. He has no engineering experience, no engineering training, and has not passed the two required tests. To call yourself and engineer or have engineering in the name of your company requires like 15 years of recordable history and exams.

stop projecting, anon, just because you do that kind of shit doesn't mean everyone does
>>108518998
I don't really see how, was I wrong in any way? Majority of CEOs in tech companies haven't actually developed any of their products or research.

I wasn't really focusing on the south african rat on that post, my comment was more of a generalization

Elon is just a reasonably smart (iq125) autistic nerd who got really lucky, and then started doing just enough drugs to be unhinged without ruining his life. He's no genius, but he's not a dumbass. In fact he's just about your average (white employed) /g/entleman. He's not a visionary either, his ideas are all based on a combination of practically unlimited wealth, a love for sci-fi, and getting high. Insisting he's anything far from this in either direction is just different flavours of mental illness.

It's not as simple you dumbasses. What he is doing is as old as the civilisation itself.

I respect the effort your image took, though it's undone by feeling the need to make it anyway. If you put that much grift into the right things, maybe you could be 1/1000th as successful as Elon. Though I imagine the HRT and such probably commands a lot of your attention
>>
I bet a lot of people in this thread feel inferior to someone with an accounting or business admin degree.
Some of you are even convinced a girl making 30 dollars an hour in HR fucked you over and that's why you can't get ahead in life.
>>
>>108519163
hitting shift+U for the screenshot and ctrl+V to upload it is not really an effort, are you legitimately retarded? This is /g/ right?
>maybe you could be 1/1000th as successful as Elon
If my dad had an emerald mine in south africa I could also be a fraction as successful as Elon, but I'd rather shoot myself in the face than try to compare myself to a giga-autistic balding rat.

looooooooooooooooool

Lots of companies like HP and Boeing were built up by engineers. It wasn't until the MBAbros and the "visionaries" took over that they went to shit.
>>
>>108519244
He went to Canada first. If you can't even get that detail right, why should we believe anything else you post? BTW, he still retains citizenship in Canada and South Africa, begging the question of where his loyalties lie and how quickly he'd turn his back on the US if he doesn't get his way.

he didn't say elon came to the usa first, did he? he just said elon came to usa and started fresh

>weird how smart engineers always need a dumbass visionary to make them useful
I wouldn't say it's always, but the problem with engineers is that they overestimate their importance and don't take the time to foster relationships with people. If you're not capable of effectively communicating with the common man, then you'll always be shit at business dealings. Elon is an outlier in all regards though. You can try to shit on him for doing or saying dumb things from time to time, but he is more capable than most people on the planet and he certainly knows more about tech/science than your average CEO.

How come I have heard this a hundred times already and it amounts to this every time? Schizophrenics are LLM's with a neocortex

You can shit on boeing 747 max but it doesn't matter. They secured the contract for the f47 next-gen fighters. If you thought the f35 was a waste of money, you've seen nothing yet.
>>
>>108518183
He's not even a visionary
He's a marketing muppet that draws eyes, which is what investors want and that's where all the money comes from
The actual product is secondary

>>108519244
Musk literally admitted otherwise on twitter and said he got money from his dad for his first inverstments. Are you actually braindamaged?
