While the article has its issues, the point about how cavalier these guys are about throwing a billion dollars at something is interesting. I have to submit dozens of pages of documentation to the federal government to get $100k, but these guys shoot a text and get a $1B.

It's their money to lose of course, but if they do this then we shouldn't take their investments in a company with too much gravity.

Why wouldn't you throw $1B to someone who's created over $1T of value from scratch?

Generous of you to overlook the 100-1000x multiple he has enjoyed.
