I mean there's something to be said if he hates the company direction he needs to tear it down to the studs...Good luck getting a bunch of new people in there pumped to work 80 hours a week for a tyrant boss.
I'm pretty wait and see on this whole thing, I am enjoying the craziness more than anything.
There are so many unknowns. This $8 thing, people are running with it like he came down from Mt. Sinai with some stone tablets.
He's floating ideas! He can say tomorrow that he looked into it, and they will have a free 'layer' of verification, and we will have people explaining why THIS is the best way to do it. Or the worst.
For SURE, we should consider the source when it comes to opinions. And I don't mean left/right, I mean, can this person benefit or take a loss depending which way it goes?
If someone has skin in the game, and their livelihood, their MONEY, depends on how this turns out, that needs to be considered.
The only hard and fast opinion I have is that I don't see how the company makes money. Turning it into a different app, or a more inclusive app will take MORE money, it's not just writing code. And he already overpaid by a lot, so there's about 20-25 billion that was spent that will not go into changing this company.
Doesn't mean Elon or investors couldn't make money. But I don't see how the company can stand on it's own two legs, starting from a hole that big.
