Debatable but likely not insane: there MAY be an issue with SpaceX' hiring

4 points by adinhitlore ↗ HN
OK, this is just social science but note this:

Musk posted today for people to give 3 proofs of exceptional ability if they want to join the most expensive and "most innovative" company ever - Spacex.

But how can you innovate when you follow the rules? what if you send 1, 2 or 4 reasons? and why would anyone work for someone with very questionable and controversial views? It doesn't seem possible for Spacex to revolutionize the world, change it: sure they do...for 20+ years but they fail to revolutionize for 20+ years. And the reasons are obvious.

I don't understand what this means "It doesn't seem possible for Spacex to revolutionize the world, change it: sure they do...for 20+ years but they fail to revolutionize for 20+ years.And the reasons are obvious."

Please explain.

Thanks for doing the internet version of texting someone and then throwing your phone into a river.

Please stop posting in this style. This is not what HN is for and it destroys what it is for. Many of your comments break the guidelines, notably these ones:

Be kind. Don't be snarky. Converse curiously; don't cross-examine. Edit out swipes.

Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.

When disagreeing, please reply to the argument instead of calling names. "That is idiotic; 1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be shortened to "1 + 1 is 2, not 3."

Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer...

Please don't use Hacker News for political or ideological battle. It tramples curiosity.

Please don't use uppercase for emphasis. Instead, put *asterisks* around it and it will get italicized.

We eventually have to ban accounts that keep posting like this, so please take a moment to read the guidelines and make an effort to observe them if you want to keep participating here.

Look. If you don't have the emotional consitution to handle putting your opinion online and then having other people say its wrong. Then don't do it.

I asked you nicely to explain yourself and you copped out and said "they failed. Period" like a child instead of having an intellectual conversation.

I'm not sorry.
