#4Elon almost always overpromises and under delivers. The majority of his projects never really come to fruition.

#6And died in the most gruesome ways imaginable. One of them appears to have chewed off its own toe.
Elon's folks tortured them to death for a goal I cannot properly articulate, tbh.

I wish we had more people who under-deliver the way Elon Musk does.

A marketer's trick. But he has at least one big win - SpaceX.

#9“Pretty much every single monkey that had had implants put in their head suffered from pretty debilitating health effects,” said the PCRM’s research advocacy director Jeremy Beckham. “They were, frankly, maiming and killing the animals.”
Elon's desire for human trials in 2022 definitely isn't going to work. Human trials in 2032 seems a much more realistic timeframe.

So far he's...
- planning to dig tiny tunnels with no ventilation or emergency egress for cars instead of, you know, trains [1] - [edit](as if the only reason we have traffic is because lanes are uncovered? maybe just put a roof over the highway as a beta test?)
- he's walked back the whole hyperloop thing almost entirely [2]
- some electric cars where he tried to overthrow the government of Bolivia to source lithium [3] - at a company which produces a single digit percentage as many cars as say Toyota, but is valued at the entire rest of the car industry put together
- [edit] and a publicly available beta of an autopilot system that seems hell-bent on murder (including having tried to off me, a few times - btw, super fun when it's not)
- some very expensive space internet [4] cat heaters [5] (although after reading this article I assume the cats are being slowly roasted in some sort of bandwidth trial)
- built rockets that aren't actually less expensive than competitors - they hope to be, but presently are not, and tbh, I don't see a path (but would be happily proven wrong) [6]
- and tortured a bunch of monkeys to death.
11/10. Nailed it.
