How do you start a Tesla with small bets?


With the roadster.

He also started SpaceX with Falcon 1, not Falcon 9, and certainly not Starship.


That's a good point. The principle of proving a simple possible version makes sense. Just pointing out that those "small" steps Tesla took are already a lot bigger than most software projects.


Mostly because those projects are badly mismanaged from before they even write the first line of code :P
