Thing that struck me most was that Elon is an excellent email communicator. There’s no fluff or room for misinterpretation.

The best engineers that I worked with that were 100x engineers and some of the most intelligent people I ever worked with

But honestly they weren’t that much better technically than others I knew (some were better and would write more code faster) - what they were really good at - great communicators, and that’s why their ideas got buy in from the team / management etc

there is a certain engineering mindset when it comes to communicating and developing a well-thought, elegant solution. for those that innately have it, it’s like an authentic instinct that’s deeper than something that can be learned
