Ideas are useless. Execution is everything.

And we can like Elon or not (I'm definitely in the latter camp lately) but if it was as easy as you say, there would be tons of other companies making such breakthroughs.

Execution isn't theoretical research.

Yeah, people forget that during the 90s and 00s it was a well-known meme that we had the tech for electric cars, and oil companies had buried it

Love him or hate him, Elon didn't let his memes be dreams
