Whenever Elon speaks of programming, he just spouts the most delusional Point-Haired Boss bullshit imaginable. Truly, he has been promoted to the level of his incompetence.

"I have a lot of respect for you Elon, please don't be a name-caller." What an idiot.

The dBase III joke was pretty good. But dBase IV would have been much, much funnier.
