Most people get the sack for sleeping on the job. I suppose it different if it’s daddys money.focuszing723 said:rick_chasey said:Musk's whole bit isn't inventing anything new.
It's getting existing technology and securing a boatload of financing and investment to make it commercially viable.
He's a walking case for the value of R&D, rather than some mad scientist.

Musk should get a partnership deal with Ann Summers doing scale replicas of his rockets. I think I know who’d be first in the queue.0

Given the state of computing in 1969, I think it's much more impressive that Apollo 11 got to the moon and back. Just sayin'...0

Hehe, for nerds:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_Guidance_ComputerThe Apollo Guidance Computer (AGC) was a digital computer produced for the Apollo program that was installed on board each Apollo command module (CM) and Apollo Lunar Module (LM). The AGC provided computation and electronic interfaces for guidance, navigation, and control of the spacecraft.[3] The AGC was the first computer based on silicon integrated circuits. The computer's performance was comparable to the first generation of home computers from the late 1970s, such as the Apple II, TRS-80, and Commodore PET.[4]
The AGC has a 16-bit word length, with 15 data bits and one parity bit. Most of the software on the AGC is stored in a special read-only memory known as core rope memory, fashioned by weaving wires through and around magnetic cores, though a small amount of read/write core memory is available.
Astronauts communicated with the AGC using a numeric display and keyboard called the DSKY (for "display and keyboard", pronounced "DIS-kee"). The AGC and its DSKY user interface were developed in the early 1960s for the Apollo program by the MIT Instrumentation Laboratory and first flew in 1966.[5]0 -

I see that Saltys mate is now being sued by Tesla shareholders over a tweet. That claimed he’d secured funding for a private buyout or something.0

Meh, mortals who haven't landed reusable rockets.

Meh, Knight Industries had a car that could do that and more in the early 80s. It could even talk to you. Musk is decades behind the curve.0
