Here’s a presentation from Tarpenning on Tesla’s founding. I was seriously impressed.
I thought Elon Musk was the founder of Tesla.
He sued them in order to be able to call himself that.
But no matter how much money he throws at it, he can’t change a definition.
You shouldn’t be downvoted for thinking this. Many people do which is why this post exists to begin with.
Elon the Musky Husky did not found Tesla He signed a contract letting him say he did in advertising.
This post is absolutely stupid, but keeps getting reposted because people have a hate boner for Elon Musk.
Tesla started in July 2003, Elon invested $6.5 Million in February 2004. That makes him a co-founder. Their first electric car was released in 2008 with Elon as CEO.(1)
You don’t get a startup to the seventh most valuable company by being lazy or lucky.(2)
Wow, if only we had a name for someone that invests in a company after it is founded.
Yes an investor. Yet, Elon became the largest shareholder when he did invest and actively helped in development/decision-making of the first car. Take off your shit tinted glasses for a second and be rational.
He became chairman in 2004 are you saying that’s after Tesla was widely successful? When he won the Global Green for the roadster are you saying some random investor would get that?
What the hell does this have to do with antiwork?
It’s an example of a billionaire boss taking all the credit for others work…
I doubt those guys have to work anymore
Hmmm I’m suspicious of this.
I mean, they both claim in this picture that the have a qualification in “Bullshit” computer science
Sus if you ask me
The only thing Musk did for Tesla was give these 2 guys $ from his PayPal buy out, in which Elon fucked everyone else involved too
Elon is a POS
Read my comment again, but this time as if it had one of those /s things the yanks are so reliant on
Canadian here and I prefer the /s because there are too many morons out there. And sarcasm doesn’t translate over text unless you know said person. So just use /s. Is it really that hard?
Ye/s
Then add the /s. Sarcasm doesn’t transfer well over text.
It does if you have reading comprehension more advanced than a seven year old
I guarantee you there are people that think what you posted. But if you want to be unclear and blame others, ok.
Oh my god I’ve just realised the /s is the internet equivalent of laugh tracks on “comedy” programs
