Ah, nihilism. The pointless, dead-end philosophy of choice of the pseudo-intellectual.
And how exactly is recognizing that twitter is a 4chan like cesspool nihilism?

This is total misinformation. UPenn confirmed themselves he holds physics and economics degrees https://www.plainsite.org/documents/tbdmox/2019-email-from-t... It's just insane how Musk can spur such misinformation campaigns. It reminds me off the whole Obama birth certificate stuff. People are just not thinking right.
That's, ahh, a Bachelor of Arts Physics degree. That comes from a broad liberal arts education and attending "Physics for non-physics people" lectures. He's seen the Foucalt's Pendulum and heavy pendulum swinging at the head demonstrations but never had to get into the weeds with tensor calculations or most of the material B.Sc Physics grads would consider essential. It's more physics than a History graduate would ty…

I don't see why what you are talking about is relevant. I simply responded to the person saying he was spreading a fake story. Musk never claimed he had a Bachelor of Science in Physics as far as I know.
It's quite an okay degree combo for a manager to have, Econ, Business, + exposure to some STEM.
And that's it, degree wise (sans any independant skill) it doesn't show any particularly ability in physics and|or engineering and were he to (say) apply to spaceX or elsewhere as an Engineer | STEM graduate for an Engineer | STEM role, on the basis of that bit of paper he'd be either binned or passed to "potential mid manager" pile.
I've been a part time STEM teaching assistent on and off for decades (six months, one or two courses, every third year) as a way of keeping in touch with old uni friends, a STEM consultant group, and upcoming talent looking for work .. liberal arts students doing 101 bridging corses vary widely in ability and mostly pass regardless (if they attend, hand in easy papers, and don't fluff rote exams) .. that's their skill level, STEM aware.
Some have actual STEM talent, many trade on the pretence of STEM talent.
TLDR; the relevance is that degree is no real evidence of any particular STEM skill.
Very probably (and I do mean this) Mr. Bean is|was a better Engineer than Musk (although admittedly he dropped out of his doctoral work for a more lucrative career)

If someone tells you “I challenge you to a cage fight”, tell me what timeline you think they have in mind. “I challenge you” and then we wait two years or what? Do you realize this makes no damn sense. Also Musk issued the challenge in June. Not today. Despite Zuckerberg not issuing the challenge, he gave Musk over two months to get his shit together and he clearly can’t.
To take the GP comments fight as an example, there was 64 days between when Khabib v McGregor was announced and their actual bout. Both camps knew there would be a fight and so consider negotations started at least one month prior to that. So both trained fighters had at least 90 days to prepare. Khabib however trains everyday, that is his life and he has done nothing else his whole life. Connor I'm not so sure but a…
That is the perfect description of Musk, the only fighting experience he had was back when bullies used to beat him up in high school.
And in retrospect, the bullies were right
