Elon #Musk: Jack-ass of all trades, master of none.
@davidgerard Bursar's been at the Dried Frog Pills again, I see.
@davidgerard an exciting new era of cheeseburger-tolerant electrical engineering practices
@davidgerard little known fact: the pentium FDIV bug was caused by a guy's Snickers™ bar
@davidgerard I can do that!
I mean, the clean room won't be useful afterwards, but that's small print, thanks for your investment.
@davidgerard At this point anyone who would be willing to put their money in any of Phony Stark's ventures is asking to be committed or legally incapacitated.
@Illuminatus @davidgerard ketamine is a hell of a drug

@davidgerard Mind you if I were Jensen Huang I would tell potential competitors that making everything down to the cardboard box the chips _come_ in is impossibly difficult if I thought I could get away with it.

(Obvs very much not saying Elon "wildest parties" Musk isn't full of it again... :-)

@davidgerard Christ what is the musky one smoking. Having run a clean room 4 orders of magnitude ‘dirtier’ than 2nm facilities I was roiling on the floor laughing. Purely designed to tweak stock prices. Complete bollocks
@davidgerard "here, we've got your chips - salt and vinegar?"
@davidgerard: It becomes more and more obvious day by day that the secret to wealth is not brains. Which should have been blaringly apparent before, but here we are.
