Thanks, half of the videos I didn’t even know.

Also, Musk was doing a physics PhD in battery tech at Stanford when he dropped out to found Zip2.

Yup, I think he has done like 1 day of it, before he dropped off.

There is some long running pattern here with getting cold feet on bad decisions ^^ .

He was accepted into it, that’s the important part. But then the internet took off and it was the right time to be in that place. Remember, back then he was just another immigrant kid.

It’s funny how quickly the left changed from loving him for turning the car industry on its head to hating him for taking away the left’s hate machine. Oh well.

> He was accepted into it, that’s the important part.

Being accepted is not the important part of PhD work, no.

Am I on Reddit here?

Don't be jealous of Musks intellect. The behavior is very childish. Just study and try harder and one day you can be successful, as well.
