After he called Musk a “grifter.”🧐
Elon Musk has once again shown his not-so-good side by sparring with Jackson Palmer, one of the creators of the cryptocurrency, Dogecoin,. In his tirade on Twitter, Musk even went on to say that his kids"wrote better code when they were 12" than what Jackson had sent to him back in 2018.
For the uninitiated, Jackson Palmer is a software engineer at Adobe, but he is popular as one of the creators of the meme cryptocurrency,. About a decade ago, Palmer was joking about the speculation in cryptocurrencies and suggested that a dog coin be created. He even bought the domain name dogecoin.com, after the former IBM engineer Bill Markus got in touch with him.
The duo, who had never met before, set about writing a program for the meme cryptocurrency and launched it in December 2013. Fast forward to the present day, Dogecoin is one of the most popular cryptocurrencies and has found a fan in none other than Elon Musk, the world's richest person. Musk has often tweeted about Dogecoin, and his companies, Tesla and SpaceX,Musk's anger stems from the comments Palmer made to an Australian news site, Crikey.
During the exchange about this bot, Palmer also revealed that he realized that Musk didn't quite understand coding as he projects and even asked Palmer,"Palmer called Musk a"grifter" and said that the latter is simply good at pretending that he knows. He also cited the example of Tesla's full self-driving promise, a vision that Musk has been promoting in the hope that he will deliver it someday.
Palmer complied and shared the link to the short snippet of code he had already posted to the public repository, GitHub, four years ago. Then, Musk tweeted.Like I said, if it’s so great, he should share it with the world and make everyone’s experience with Twitter better. If he does, you will see what I mean.In another tweet, Musk also said that Palmer forgot to mention that he hasn't written the code for Dogecoin, something that co-creator of the currency, Bill Markus agreed with.
