@rodhilton @annamal sure. Do we know that's the case? I don't. I don't know if I'd call him a genius or not, because I don’t know him, but this kind of projection seems like it’s own competing brand of stupidity.

@joseph @rodhilton Most knowledgeable IT,social media and law experts have made it clear that he is not listening to experts when it comes to twitter. Everything I know about code/systems maintenance tells me that his current approach is not one that anyone would advise. Unless there are facts not n evidence then I think it would be fair to say that he is ignoring the experts on twitter.

@annamal @rodhilton if you can show me where I disagree with that assertion I’d love to see it.

@joseph @rodhilton I assumed when you said "Do we know that's the case? " you were asking about whether we were sure that he is ignoring advice from experts on twitter. Sorry to misinterpret, what were you actually asking about?

Joseph Ottinger

@rodhilton @annamal I was asking if we knew he was ignoring experts on other subjects as well. The claim was that he was wayward and ignorant on all subjects and I don't that I can agree with the assertion yet, esp since a year ago everyone was all YAY SPACEX or whatever, as we drove our Tesla 3s about.

@joseph @rodhilton We don't *know* that, but given multiple reference points where we know he *is* ignoring advice from experts (HR, legal, international law, IT, cave diving, truck cab design) it seems *likely* that he would ignore advice on other fronts as well. Not a certainty of course but likely.

@annamal right. But WE are people who believe in science and reason and logic, and extrapolation, while valid, isn't very strong as a basis on which to form a valid opinion, and our commitment to truth and honesty is greater than our desire to dunk on musk. ... Right?
