What a shitty opinion to respond to, too: King Bazinga only executive meddles with rockets and electric cars and he has to have keys jangled at him to mitigate more bad ideas going into the works.

    I don’t trust like that. Expertise in one area (even if he had expertise in one area) does not automatically translate to others.

      That should be the default way of thinking but decades of bazinga propaganda about “eccentric geniuses” is taking its toll. not-immune-to-propaganda

        It’s weird because I mean, I’ve had an experience while job hunting where a skill set I thought would transfer fairly well didn’t. I can’t imagine I’m too unusual in that regard. (Proficiency with circuits in computers and small electronics not scaling up well to understanding residential scale tv wiring)
