Ah, reminds me of the good ol' days in Sept 2013 : https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/380454034659753984

 

Hardcore engineers are required, but this project also needs a few outstanding scientists doing basic research (not just applied research) on the topic.

Just my opinion, of course.

Best wishes to the entire Tesla team,

Putting more programmers on a project that is already late just makes it twice as late.
