that's musk approach, which is double edged sword
interesting that bill joy did use a similar way, but i assume that an incomplete text editor is a lot less critical than a failing compiler :)

I don't know what "musk approach" is, presumably referring to Elon Musk?

I think it's very common. GitHub is probably full of projects that do this to some degree. But most people also don't pay attention to these projects.
I'm not saying the V people are without blame or couldn't have be better, but there's definitely a lot of toxic feedback looping going on here.
Musk says "full self driving car next year for 60k" means "partial self driving in 5 years for 75"
I don't have a full explanation of why V made me so angry, but coming up with so many bold claims invalidating whole decades of an entire industry is mind boggling for sure.
Ah right. Well, Tesla is a company, whereas V is basically just a few people working on it in their spare time. I don't think you can really compare the two or hold them to exactly the same standards.
Or to put it in another way: people can be flawed, and I think that's okay. I don't think it's right to jump on that with assumptions of malice.
