@jeffowski To be fair, he stole the idea of zip2 from a yellow press salesman.

@jeffowski Musk is similar to Steve Jobs. Jobs never invented anything. He was a marketer.

@mickymorse similarity: both treated their employees like shit.

Difference: Jobs cared about his customers.
@jeffowski

@fedops @mickymorse — funny because Simon Sinek loves to use Apple and Jobs as his example for good leadership.
As a former Apple employee, you are a number and that’s it, like in every corporation, but the guy at the top steering the ship still matters. Jobs led Apple pretty well. Musk continues to drag down Tesla, SpaceX, and is killing Twitter/X.
Seems a massive contrast versus the comparison you’re trying to make.

@jeffowski I'm not arguing he led Apple badly. As you say musk is a billion dollar liability to anything he touches. Basically like any fascist.

I can't speak with authority but some stories I've heard from people directly working with Jobs universally indicate he was very tough on his direct reports. Interesting to hear your experience is different.
@mickymorse

@jeffowski he seems to be the “one-person private equity firm” buying companies and amassing profits while they slowly die…

@jeffowski he didn't do anytthing but he is more successful than all the victims combined which is remarkable

@gary_alderson -- I bet if you started off rich, you'd be rich too.
Before you lick that guy's balls, you should know his history.

@jeffowski he will likely self destruct but he knows something not nothing

@jeffowski 95% of the people here are licking corp balls on the daily - you have to come up witth something better

@gary_alderson -- So the only way you can end an argument is to make up statistics - you have to come up with something better.

What do you know of if you're going to suck him off?

@jeffowski He designed the Cybertruck. No other person could have done that.

@jeffowski
But, but- I thought he knew more about manufacturing than anyone currently alive on earth :neofox_googly_woozy:

@livi_wusky - manufacturing lies and deceit. It’s what Billionaores all do.
And how fast they become fascist to protect their wealth.

@jeffowski He manages to be even worse at creating things than Thomas Edison.
