>What's the opposite of "Go woke, go broke"?
Also, why do american based tech companies need to have such a public CEO?
Musk, Zuckerberg, Gates, Jobs, Ballmer, Dorsey, Bezos etc etc all have cringe inducing interpersonal skills. Why do they do it? I look at other tech industries around the world and the CEO's don't feel the need to humiliate themselves in public to sell their products.
So anyways, when did we stop viewing engineers and inventors as the creators of a product (Isambard Kingdom Brunel , Nikola Tesla, Alexander Graham Bell etc etc)? Musk et al have a gift for logistics and self-promotion etc but they didn't really invent anything. Who invented the iphone? I don't know but it wasn't jobs.

Ballmer is not cringe
Ballmer had to buy an NBA team because he didn't realize that if you bring in ringers for Metro League high school basketball, they have to actually attend and pass classes or else the league will flip a shit.
That's pretty embarrassing.
I didn't understand what you said but sounds interesting. Can you explain it again for someone who knows nothing about basketball?
Okay so basically the Metro League is the AAA sports league in Seattle that includes most of the private schools; Blanchett, Seattle Prep, O'Dea, and Lakeside in particular. Rainier Beach is a Seattle public school in the same league that is only kept around *as a school* because the basketball program pays for just about the entire operation and consistently puts kids in the NBA. Around the time in question, Nate Robinson, a Beach graduate and NBA star, was basically paying out of pocket for the entire Basketball Program and financed a massive remodel of their gym and athletic facilities.
Blanchett, Seattle Prep, and O'Dea are Catholic schools, and they have essentially been recruiting pro-level Basketball players with needs-based scholarships since forever. The most obvious example from around the time was Martell Webster, who went directly to the NBA out of high school.
Ballmer sent his kids to Lakeside. Lakeside is the Alma Mater for Bill Gates and Paul Allen, and it is the school where all the high level microsofties send their kids. Lakeside's athletic programs were pretty mediocre historically, and Ballmer wanted to win Metro and win State, so he got a few high level players into Lakeside so they'd start winning.
...Except they didn't actually attend or pass their classes. In contrast, Martell Webster, who was basically illiterate when he was accepted into Prep, was a sought after college prospect precisely because by the time he graduated high school he could easily meet the academic requirements for the NCAA for D1 play. (Which aren't very stringent, but they do exist)
When all this came out, Ballmer basically got kicked out of Seattle High School Basketball, and it happened to be exactly the same time the Clippers came up for sale, so he basically was confined to a smaller, less important basketball league.
tl;dr
mutts love Black folk and will spend billions to watch them dribble

Come on, nobody knows Gates, Jobs, Ballmer, Dorsey or Bezos. Everyone knows Musk and Zuckenberg because of social media.
The only reason you even hear of Bill Gates is because he gets interviewed by the news and the news posts on social media. If social media didn't exist, you would never know about him.
All CEOs are cringe. American CEOs are cringe on the internet.
True dat.
My grandmother knows who gates, jobs and bezos are. She's not on social media.
>nobody knows Gates
Okay, zoomer.
>nobody knows Gates, Jobs
Do you live under a rock or something?
No one knows about Gates/Jobs day to day life. troony seethers makes fake narratives about Musk's every single day to day action.
>Come on, nobody knows Gates, Jobs, Ballmer, Dorsey or Bezos
pay attention to grandma and grandpa this thanksgiving, you'd be surprised
go trad go rich
Go fash, make cash

because that's american culture
Its stand up to israeli power and be destroyed. Many such cases...
Tesla doesn't need to get woke to go broke, it's just a manufacturer of terrible products.
Reading commie media gets you these takes

well yeah those phrases are meaningless without sources (and their methodology) but as long as you provide them they're completely fine
>but as long as you provide them
>Caliber's "consideration score" for Tesla, provided exclusively to Reuters, fell to 31% in February, less than half its high of 70% in November 2021 when it started tracking consumer interest in the brand.
>Caliber CEO Shahar Silbershatz
>He has an MBA from Columbia Business School and over 20 years of experience working at leading consultancies in New York, London and Copenhagen – advising some of the world’s largest companies in the areas of marketing, communications, business strategy and stakeholder relations.
Caliber is a shake-down consulting operation.
Not to mention there's plenty of reasons to suspect that there's not as many people who both want and can afford a new $40,000-$100,000 electric car as there used to be.
>Caliber is a shake-down consulting operation.
Right, the fact that the company's newest product is a laughingstock is clearly unrelated here.
I'm neutral to very mildly positive about Musk and I still would never buy a Tesla because they're ugly fricking cars made for the worst kind of affluent tech homosexual.
New arrival to the city starter kit: overpriced townhouse, Ring camera doorbell, Tesla
>So anyways, when did we stop viewing engineers and inventors as the creators of a product
When people have seen the real world and realized that even the best ideas are absolutely worthless without good implementation. And as products began to require intellectual effort from hundreds of people and dozens of iterations.
And honestly, imo it seems fair to call Jobs the inventors of iphone and musk the inventor of reusable rockets because they controlled, oversaw the design and pushed these to fruition.
But who am I kidding? You're probably just another baiting threadshitting (maybe) commie who wants to shit on the rich without an ounce of intellectual honesty.
>talk about American tech companies
>no mention of the government
if you’re not asking the right questions what’s the point?
>Also, why do american based tech companies need to have such a public CEO?

Man, communists literally cannot think in terms other than direct commands and permissions, can they?
By the way Ford is losing $15,000 on every F150 lightning they sell (at the dealership door, before servicing commitments) and Tesla is making money on a fricking unicorn vanity project with multiple new proprietary technologies in it.
>Musk, Zuckerberg, Gates, Jobs, Ballmer, Dorsey, Bezos etc etc
Care to name any more astronomically successful business leaders?
that's quite the tangent
The tangent from the raw economic realities of the EV market is this puff-piece from a marketing firm attacking a company for not hiring them. That's what this article is.
The laughingstock product makes money. The serious product from "serious ford tough, 100 years of ford tough, serious CEO, clear-thinking, too big to fail" is losing money.
It doesn't matter how confidently or seriously you place your bet at the roulette table. Completely irrelevant.
>The laughingstock product makes money.
Because of pre-orders, genius. And no, Ford being shit doesn't make Tesla not shit.
>Because of pre-orders, genius.
How the frick do you think profitability is calculated? Do you seriously believe Tesla is sitting down in front of their shareholders pointing at a balance sheet containing only income?
The liabilities of the pre-orders are baked into the analysis. The assumption is made that a pre-order means the factory gets a build order. Believe it or not billionaire investors are able to make the inference that fulfilling a pre-order requires a vehicle to be constructed.
Tesla is the only US maker currently selling EVs at a profit, Aptera might soon join them, but for now it's Tesla, and Tesla somehow made the Cybertruck profitable despite all of it's absurd excesses, which should tell you something about how much they're making on their conventionally engineered panelled-monocoque cars.
BYD is where it's at. I liked what he did to Twatter but his EVs are not the end all be all of things. Kekw.
You're probably not even old enough to own a car buddy.
I don't care anyway. Mutts were honking all over the world the holiness of the EV and Musk even made fun of the chink brand. Now chink cars are everywhere and suddenly, EVs are baaad. Cope and seethe, free trade losers.
when will he realize the only people who want electric cars are the same liberals and trannies he claims to hate so much?
Doesnt he hate the nazi huwhite supremacists because he doesnt make gas cars?
because the only reason many of those companies exist is stock speculation, brand is everything, just like crypto
and much like crypto, you can make money from it even if you think it is moronic. most people aren't as cynical however, some have legitimately fallen for the constant, intrusive marketing campaigns because they spend too much time on the internet and have no critical sense whatsoever
and bots. more than half of this site are bots, specially on threads like this one that are about <brand>
>Who invented the iphone?
Key people in the creation of both iPhone and Android can be traced back to General Magic, a company spun off of Apple in 1990.
Be broke, go woke.
Pretty sure the reason people are picking other vehicles is that the major manufacturers - Volkswagen, Honda, General Motors, etc - ditched the whole "our EVs must look really homosexual and stand out" internal memo they seem to have initially been operating on and started making EVs that actually look good. So now people are picking the good build quality of existing automotive companies instead of Tesla's tech company style shitware.
I mean, making cars is easier than writing code
proof: you can buy almost any car and be confident it is probably not going to kill you. but you will never fully trust any kind of autopilot on your car
>making cars is easier than writing code
You'd think, but somehow Tesla fricks it up pretty bad, panel gaps up the ass.
It's because they have a highly cost optimized assembly line. It's a fact that Tesla is the only western company who's able to financially sustain EV production and it's because they made their assembly line fast and cheap.
brother why are you using an euphemism for a company that isn't yours. they sell low quality overpriced cars and even then they have to cut corners to stay alive. and the subsidies, lots of subsidies through different venues
I don't trust their book-keeping, they are probably lying when they say they are making profits. the man is a grifter
You have invented an entire universe for yourself about the company, the employees, the products, the founder, etc.
This isn't a coherent analysis, its cult behavior.
Doesn't Tesla get shittons of government subsidies? Here in Canada there were big rebates for buying a Tesla (which only wealthy people could afford, so basically taxpayers money went towards helping the wealthy buy stuff)
>I mean, making cars is easier than writing code

It's to make you think YOU could do this if you just worked hard enough. The truth is, they all had family connections and existing wealth. It's all narratives to keep suckers feeding the system.

Go woke, OR go broke
Has little to do with his personality. Shit is too expensive now.
Holy shit, just admit you wanna suck his dick already. Stop making these worthless threads about some african homosexual. Imagine being this gay over some african c**t.

*like 20 people pay for twitter pro*
*libtards stop buying teslas*
total money gained thanks to this flawless plan: negative
It's more to do with trying to install a more sympathetic administration in the white house. Right now Space X can't do space shit because they're getting shaken down by the EPA DVD having the DOL and NRLB enforce conflicting regulations on them.
Its not just SpaceX getting shaken down, its every government agency shaking down him and his companies because the current political cult leader told his tribe to go after him. FAA, EPA, NHTSA, NTSB, DEA, FCC, CISA, etc
Thats what you get for going against the current death cult cult pushed by the current political party in control.
Technology?
the opposite of "go woke go broke" is artificially induced, to be fair.
as in there's a set of legal and then cultural norms (e.g. DEI shit) proliferating through institutions that is harming musk and tesla. without those legal norms he'd be fine.
You'd think the people who can afford teslas have high enough IQ to understand people with aspergers have specific type of output and they dont obsess over "personalities" since it doesnt impact their lives.
