Actually he has proved to be a bit smarter than that. He has come up 
with problems that can be solved by throwing other peoples money at them

He talked about electric cars. I don't know anything about cars, so when
people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.

Then he talked about rockets. I don't know anything about rockets, so
when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.

Now he talks about software. I happen to know a lot about software &
Elon Musk is saying the stupidest shit I've ever heard anyone say, so
when people say he's a genius I figure I should stay the hell away from
his cars and rockets.

These charismatic entrepreneurs are all the same.
Their genius lies in identifying people smarter than they are, to work 
for them, while identifying investors stupider than they are, to finance it.

the ultimate consequences to which these principles will lead. They must 
face it, then decide whether this is what they want or not.

   Does ANYONE use Ada anymore ???

   It's a FRUSTRATING language, puts barriers
   behind barriers to keep you from doing what
   you need to do in any sane/efficient manner.

   No wonder the govt loved it.

   And NOT sure that makes it so much 'safer'.
   Well-done 'C'/FORTRAN/COBOL can be as good.

   Wrote a few shortish programs in Ada just to
   try it out, lists pointing to lists pointing
   to lists and similar fun, mini-database kind
   of stuff. Never again.

   Just for the record, I don't think they SHOULD
   be using Ada. A highly imperfect 'solution' for

I believe that no Ada programmer ever commits a suicide. I am an
Adaist who will never choose to commit a suicide!
