minus-squareokiokbar@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up18·edit-21 year agoPeople hate Elon for good reasons, but with these two in charge, Tesla would have gone bankrupt like most other car companies. They shouldn’t be written out of history, but just be treated as idealistic founders that left when it was their time.
minus-squareBarqsHasBite@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoUmmm they had plans, the whole start with the top end and slowly go down. https://youtu.be/JW95LCkxlb4?si=QLwvcDoi9CuP-wrX They had the Roadster, that was the plan and they did it. Why you’re focusing on a prototype drivetrain is frankly weird.
minus-squareBarqsHasBite@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·1 year agoMost things started after money came in. But that was always the plan. So Elon brought money. Say that. Calling him a founder brings an idea that he brought the ideas, which he didn’t. He should be called a venture capitalist.

minus-squareRedscare867@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoThat’s not true, they’re saving shareholders from losing profits.
Heroes for what reason?
