The part 1 when musk was like "that's nothing" to 40 publications per year. Lmao what a fucking dumbass.

Controversial opinion. If you really publish 40 papers per year you are not really a big part of the actual research. Just other people including you because politics and all you do, hopefully, is proofreading them.

This person seems like an ass. Science is only when you publish peer reviewed papers. Ok so you're telling me Archimedes and Eratosthenes and al-Kwharzimi and Newton and everyone who figured shit out before the modern system of academia wasn't doing science? This is not a defense of melon-musk, to be clear. He should have his wealth confiscated and his companies nationalized at the minimum.

God if you willfully ignore all context, you really got him.

I mean Newton thought alchemy was a real science. Apparently he wrote over a million words spread out over years on alchemy and conducted countless experiments, these papers were only found after his death.

Yann LeCun is not a good person, but at least he's significantly smarter than Elon

He bought a blue checkmark.

Every time I see Elon's picture in one of these posts, my brain tells me he's wearing an Ant Man costume.

I'd say someone should get Musk some burn cream, but he can afford to get it himself.
