Elon Musk Gambled Tesla to Save SolarCity
Well, Tesla is one long stream of gambles. You dont get to school an established, global, trillion dollar industry without taking risks.<p>The only notable thing here is that hating on Musk is really popular these days. So the failed gambles (this, falcon doors, the initial overautomation of the Model 3 production, etc) will be highlighted and mocked, while the successful gambles will go unmentioned or incorporated as a matter-of-fact developments.<p>Running Tesla stories through a selection bias filter is really useful, as it'll discard most stories that pop up.
