Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

there’s an alternate universe version of this where musk’s attendant sycophants and bodyguard have to fish his electrocuted/suffocated/crushed body out from the crawlspace he wedged himself into with a pocket knife

If they have a full room to themselves, a DC might let them fuck around without supervision. There's no way I would let them into the structural/electrical bits without seeing his signature under the mother of all responsibility waivers, though.

After that, if this was just a regular asshole I'd hope their fuckaround trip goes without a major incident both to save myself from a lot of trouble and out of common decency towards a fellow human. This particular asshole would really be testing the limits of the latter.

this is apparently NTT, presumably one of the bits that used to be Verio, and they've been fundamentally competent in my experience. To fuck around seriously, he'd have to buy NTT first.
