      when @SamoBurja says that all bureaucratic crises are a function of information processing errors, this is (i suspect) what he means: the most innovative suggestions for policy responses are being floated on twitter, yet receive no attention in official policy decision loops https://twitter.com/Plinz/status/1345177870688112646 …

      Heard about @Elonmusk's rescue "submarine"? The cave-diver who masterminded the Thai cave rescue called it a "PR stunt"—that was the politest thing he said. You might be wondering: well, he tried to help. Let me explain with this thread and this NYT piece. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/14/opinion/sunday/elon-musk-thailand-hubris.html … pic.twitter.com/MWicaJKaA6

      Replying to @alexandrosM @ciphergoth

      Quick summary: not a diver, he didn't mastermind it, Elon built the submarine after confirming it's worthwhile with the lead of the operation, and of course SpaceX is incredibly safety conscious and Tesla cars dominate the safety rankings. She's retrofitting a pre-made narrative.

      No I’m not. I’m a diver. Happy to talk about this at length. It was terribly, profoundly irresponsible of him. Yes I have actual information on what that “confirmation” meant.

          I have huge respect for both of you, it would be a joy for me if you were both able to respectfully hash out this disagreement.

          I'm not seeing how Musk's actions was irresponsible. He came up with a plan B that the lead of the operation thought might end up useful, it wasn't needed in the end so it wasn't used. Where's the harm?

          I'm not saying you're not a diver. I'm saying Unsworth was not a diver but a caver. Early coverage conflated him with the people that did the actual rescuing, which he was not involved with.

          Here's Elon posting his back and forth with Richard Stanton, one of the actual divers:https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1016684366083190785?s=09 …

          The former Thai provincial governor (described inaccurately as “rescue chief”) is not the subject matter expert. That would be Dick Stanton, who co-led the dive rescue team. This is our direct correspondence: pic.twitter.com/dmC9l3jiZR
