“deeply involved in every step” absolutely not, because if he was it would be painfully obvious.
Comment on Why are people impressed with SpaceX?
Tabooki@lemm.ee 4 days agoThat’s not true in the least. He is CEO, CTO and Chief rocket designer. He’s deeply involved in every step

He’s far too busy with X, Trump, and his relationship drama to have any time to do anything close to being involved. Of the company’s he’s bought or been involved in creating SpaceX is toward the bottom of his priorities from what I hear.

He can give himself whatever titles he likes, that doesn’t mean he makes any positive technical contribution.

Watch a few of the multi hour interviews he given while raining through explaining everything. He knows what he’s doing if you’ve not been paying attention. Lots of reasons to not like him but your completely wrong on this one

I hade watched them. He’s just repeating things. He had no grasp of engineering or astrophysics at a fundamental level. He is a sales guy.
The same is true for his software engineering skills. They are novice level, at best. Watching his engineering brainstorm sessions at Twitter was a painful experience. He only knows how to talk the talk. He constantly misuses key tech jargon and design patterns. His engineering group will literally come whenever he makes a suggestion.

You worked with him at Twitter?
