      It's all the same stuff The ego and pettiness, the ridiculous carnival barker PR stunts, the reputation for being a miracle worker based on just screaming at everyone at every level of the company to "WORK HARDER GODDAMN YOU"

      The real Tesla walked out on the real Edison because he was sick of being told to solve every problem by brute-forcing it and pulling 18-hour days until it was perfect And then getting screwed out of his bonus for doing it

      Man Edison, Steve Jobs, Musk It's eerie how nothing changes Some boss man always gets to be the "genius" who "brings out the best in his people" by literally locking you in a room and not letting you go home until you give him the perfect solution to his problem

      That story about how in the olden golden days Jobs told Steve Wozniak the client wouldn't pay them unless the code fit in less than some ridiculously small amount of memory so Woz spent a whole month ruining his health hand-optimizing it in assembler

      And it turned out Jobs just made that up and the clients were clueless about the concept of hardware memory limitations and would've paid for any number of chips on the circuit board And this gets told as a funny story about how Jobs always brought out the best in Woz

      That story about how Edison built the first working carbon filament light bulb by making everyone sleep at the office and live on coffee and donuts he had a lady bring in and just work continuously making prototypes until they fainted from exhaustion

      And this gets taught in school as a *good thing*, as an *inspiring story* With the same spin they do for Musk - "Well he was right there on the floor with them"

      I don't give a shit No union organizer says "Well if Elon is there too then that's okay" Assuming that hype is true that's his own neurosis and his own fucking problem

      Now do Michael Jordan. Can you really fault the process if it results?

      Michael Jordan's teammates got paid a lot more than Elon's employees and the baskets they scored were recorded by statskeepers as theirs and not his It's really not the same thing

      Although, yes, punching Steve Kerr was not okay and should not be normalized as the kind of thing you do to win basketball games

          Edison, Jobs, Musk, Jordan. All leaders with that ownership complex. But the difference with Bulls is MJ didnt have control of the paychecks? Pippen was criminally underpaid throughout Bulls career.

          No no you don’t understand, the NBA didn’t have champions for like the first 70 years of existence because nobody was willing to punch teammates or fat/height shame a team executive.

          But seriously, as much as I enjoyed the Bulls title teams in my youth, it’s nice to see seemingly nice guys like Curry and LeBron win stuff.
