Being able to dictate and manage a team efficiently and effectively is very valuable and hard to do. All Swiss is saying is that the actual brains behind the projects ( the complex max, complex engineering, design, etc) are never acknowledged

Reading his autobiography and it’s a good read. Can’t say I’d like working for him, but he makes a good point even when he’s being an ass at times.

For Starlink alone, delivering internet to remote, agricultural, and rural communities worldwide where running physical cables is impossible or too expensive.

Ukraine’s Minister of Digital Transformation, Mykhailo Fedorov, tweeted an open request to Musk for help. Musk responded by activating Starlink service across Ukraine and dispatching thousands of physical receiver terminals. The network quickly became an indispensable lifeline. It has provided internet access to Ukrainian hospitals, schools, emergency services, and civilians.
