yes but it's ok because only the CSE team saw the material

don't think about that's only possible if the content was known to be CSE material already, or if there's basically someone watching everything that guy posts all the time just in case

Strangely, banks sometimes refuse to deal with people because of things they said, too. Like "I hate paying my bills on time" is a good example.

do you think he was ever like, a little bit smart? precocious, maybe? like maybe he was good at doing sums in his head. maybe his brother took him to the casino to count cards some time, and then felt bad for exploiting him so he paid a prostitute to be nice to him.

I havent looked at his game published at 12 or whatever but I was doing simple qbasic games at that age so who knows it mightve been on that level which IMHO is definitely in the "precocious" range but still pretty far from "prodigy"

I dunno I just wonder because his actions and words make him seem very stupid but I wonder what set him on the trajectory of spending his whole life presenting himself as a super genius. was he that way at paypal? or was it a transition he made after having plastic surgery. gently caress do I gotta read that paypal book to see or did someone else here already read it because I think "super genius" would be less persuasive coming out of that balding chinless dork

It's money. He has a lot of money so he says he's smart and pays people to say it. It's how Trump is always pushed as a smart business man, but two seconds of Google prove he's not. Leno's Jaywalking skit on the Tonight Show proves this works.

well we can't justify the team we pay to watch this guy's posts for child porn if we ban him from x dot com for posting child porn, so there's really only one logical solution here

Hotz: Well, when you say a total re-write, do you mean starting with the skeleton, or a bunch of engineers sit down with a whiteboard and say 'what is Twitter?'

Musk: Umm... *awkward pause*

Hotz: Revolution or reform?

Musk: I mean, I just think like, literally - *stammering* you could either try to amend the crazy stack that exists, or re-write it.

Brown: When you say 'crazy stack', what do you mean? Break it down.

Musk: *Awkward pause* Have you seen George's, like, diagram?
