“Nano applies to everything and therefore means nothing. Definitely indicates bs.”
What? When will your companies switch from those bs nanometer scale transistors in their CPUs and use down to earth millimeter etching? Make it even more awesome! Centimeter wavelength!
While I appreciate the effort (and the info!) I don’t think anyone in good faith actually needs to be told that nanotechnology is real and potentially very useful.
The first reply to this post was asking what nano was so I thought I’d add an explanation with added Musk nonsense. Yesterday I posted in !confidently_incorrect and found that some people didn’t know what “soup du jour” meant in English so I’m erring on the side of caution today!
You’re welcome! Someone replied on the soup de jour post that they “didn’t speak French” and I thought they were trolling at first. I assumed it was a well known loan word for all native English speakers, like RVSP, déjà-vu, cul-de-sac, chaise lounge etc etc. That’s what I get for making assumptions!
I think there’s a chance you might indeed be overestimating the average English speaker’s proficiency in loan words! Good thing dictionaries are not hard to find these days. :)
How could anyone use uncyclopedia as a source for anything other than laughs? That’s ridiculous.
Here’s their article on redundancy, as a reference to anyone that doesn’t know how intentionally and obviously non-serious the site is.
Here’s a little more context. Elon doubling down and linking Uncylcopedia, a crowd-edited satirical website, to support his stupid stance.

Electric cars don’t need physics! Just money!!!
Real men make their electronic components in scales that third world children don’t need microscopy to manufacture.
We’re engraving our boards with hammer and chisel, like god intended us to do.
I’m starting to think this Elon guy might not be as smart as we all think he is
No way! He has money and his own private transportable sink. He’s got it all!
And here’s someone much cleverer than me explaining just a few of the uses of nanotechnology and why it’s not BS.

It’s absolutely appreciated regardless!
It’s always nice when stupid discussions introduced by trolls in bad faith ends up being an opportunity to actually learn something interesting. :)
Also got me googling to check if “soup du jour” meant something else than soup of the day in English - you had me intrigued for a second!

Haha, I saw that post and laughed. I didn’t go into the comments though.

Ohh, so nano does not refer to the Texteditor

How is this man the guy who owns the most important, bleeding edge technology company in the world.
We need SpaceX to succeed but do we really want to give this dumbass that amount of power? Oof
