Next time someone criticizes my coverage of Elon Musk and says something along the lines of "have you built the first successful EV company or launched rockets into space? Then you shouldn't comment!" I'm going to point out that the answer is no, but I've also never destroyed this much shareholder value in a year.
@mmasnick I have launched rockets into space, so Iβm gonna be bold and say that this is bad.
@clickhere @absolutspacegrl @mmasnick not for nothing but I was doing IT for small spacecraft at Ames in 2008 when everything they put on a SpaceX rocket ended up as hot shrapnel in the ocean, so I have a poor opinion of him acting like βheβ launched anything without epic amounts of federal money and patience
