    It’s partially an ego thing for Musk. I work with tons of these dunning Kruger techbro types who think they know better than everyone else and will eat a lot of shit to “prove” it. They have a chip on their shoulder because they think their engineering degree should give them some mythical status and get increasingly agitated when nobody fucking cares.

      Musk doesn’t have an engineering degree. He’s a clown with an economics degree that wrote spaghetti code for Paypal so bad, they gave him forked code to play with. When he found out, he demanded the real code and they would undo all his commits after he was done. He was ousted by Peter (delusional sociopath) Thiel when he went on his honeymoon and given a hefty number of shares to compensate. Dude has been failing upwards his whole life, a millionaire from birth, white South African Apartheidist. In the reveal for the Cybercuck he says regenerative breaking “Means you’ll never have to buy break pads again.” This guy doesn’t understand how friction works. He is literally just a rich kid from birth, with no background, or understanding of physics, biology, chemistry, engineering, or government. He’s Peter Thiel’s pet retard who just lies about his accomplishments and surrounds himself with yes men, who agree with him and blow smoke up his ass:

      1. Because He is desperately insecure

      2. Because he has money

      He does not have an engineering degree, that’s why his shit rockets blow up all the time.
