    He still has childish charm. He is still a dreamer- his dreams became big. He talks positively and affectionately about what he is all about and what makes him tick. You see his eyes light up. He is very much alive. He is a dreamer and a leader. You can actually see his eyes light up when she asks him something about things he is interested in. He has become more controlled and mature obviously, but he still depicts a childlike charm. This man is humble but a natural born dreamer. He thinks outside of the box and it’s really took him places.

      As an old quote says: Give a Man a Fish, and You Feed Him for a Day. Teach a Man To Fish, and You Feed Him for a Lifetime. This is the point of my comment, people should get to know and use technology to understand the world better and solve their problems. Elon is just an inspiring figure.

    @severussnape5171 6 років тому +3

    For some time now I've been telling some religious buddies of mine that I think that technology is to me such a "miraculous" thing (that many have come to take for granted because of its ubiquity) that something as routine as making a phone or skype call to someone on another part of the planet and talk to them as if they were a metre from you with almost no lag at all leaves me in awe of the property of the thing travelling between me and them to make that long distance call possible...to me that is "Godly".

    • @rbrtck
      @rbrtck 6 років тому +1

      +Severus Snape Not to undermine your perspective one bit, but for a different perspective, being an engineer I would say that the whole universe is magical, and we're incredibly fortunate that in addition to existing in the first place as sentient, sapient beings, it is even possible to create technology that seems like magic (when it works right). For me, making it happen is a matter of some creativity and a lot of hard, often tedious work, but the fact that such things are allowed and enabled by the laws of physics seems nothing less than, well, miraculous--magical.
      Being an engineer hardly makes one a god, as we (and the scientists who discover most of the things we work with) are just taking what's given to us and applying it by making tools and devices that do things for us. What Elon has that most people, including engineers, do not is a vision and the audacity to dream of changing the world. He's no god, either, but at his best he is one of the most inspiring people around.

    Business men think of the best way to make money for themselfs and when they find it they invest and make money. Elon thinks about what the planet needs and tries his best to make money doing that. He is just so intelligent and hard working that he has made 20 billion dollars doing that. That's way more than most business men will ever make and those businesses men are only trying to make money but still can't reach his level. Elon is very very special and we are really lucky to have him.

      Bezos is infinitely more likely to be a supervillain. Elon's been through several tragedies and continued to do what he does for the greater good. He chose Tesla and SpaceX and 100 hr work weeks over living the rest of his life on a private island.

      I wasn't insulting Musk, not in the least. He's amazing in my own opinion. I was making light of the way Colbert likened him to a Bond villain in an interview because he stated that one of the ways to make Mars more inhabitable is by dropping nuclear weapons on Mars' polar caps.
