Bernadetta, 18 Nov 2022He's the personification of the Dunning Kruger effect Yeah, that's why the world has scores of ignoramuses making money out of Electric car companies and rocket companies... oh wait!

He's definitely overestimating his capacities and joins fights he absolutely has no need or reason to fight (like those kids being buried in a cave fiasco). However he's far from incompetent. He does not have a history of incompetence even if he has made questionable moves.

Jumping straight from "he overestimated his abilities" to being "a poster child of Dunning Kruger effect" on people's estimations *is* reflecting badly on people making those estimations.

I mean Twitter was a sinking ship long before he even showed any interest in buying it. If it goes down faster (under him) will reflect badly, but not as badly as you (or those publications) make it seem. A bad (stupid, rather) business move is a bad business move, it is not some weird psychological metric.

And in general for all his faults, it's better to have business people who take risks and sometimes fail than business people who never take risks and all they ever do is milk the same product for decade (hello Apple/iphone).

One at least has a chance to move the world forwards, the other ends up a leech...

    Musk: Twitter should be a lot more efficient!
    World: (checks numbers) It definitely should be!
    Musk: I need money to make it happen.
    Investors: Here, do it.
    Musk: DIE TWITTER, DIE DIE! BURN IT ALL DOWN!1!!
    World: Whoa, what?

            Anonymous, 19 Nov 2022Nothing can compete with TikTok.. Good job ChinaIndeed, it's always hard to rip-off Vine, especially after the creator decided to kill it because he considered that platform to be a disservice to humanity (i.e., making people even more stupid). Clap, clap, clap, "well done China".

                          I kinda get the feeling that everyone wants Twitter to end and for a replacement to take over. Jack Dorsey is working on something isn't he.

                            Sono, 18 Nov 2022I would disagree on the YouTube part. The truth is that the... moreMy kids watch the silly clips, so that's why more of them are recommended. We haven't subscribed to any channels.

                                  I saw a video of Project Veritas, they secretly taped a Twitter engineer, he said the only works 4 hours a week! Musk needs to get more work out if people. You can't run a business where people don't work much.

                                      YUKI93, 18 Nov 2022Definitely true. I used to think that number of subscribers... moreYep. I have noticed the same about certain YouTube channels. Subscriber count isn't an accurate indicator of content quality. For example I watch Tech Spurt and Tim Schofield, both are under a million subs, but their content looks better and honest compared to paid, big youtubers that just talk praises about any new devices that lands in their office. And PBK reviews, which gets the latest phones for teardown but has less than 100k subs. There are plenty of such small reviewers, and I keep looking for those when it comes to tech, at least. Some big youtubers are actually good example Jerry Rig and Doug Demuro, but ones like Everything Apple Pro for example, they're the ones to avoid

It is those who aren't in it for the profit, but rather a passion for their subject, that make good content
