The Hyperloop was never meant to be built. Elon Musk admitted it was all about fueling opposition to California’s high-speed rail project so it would get canceled.
He never planned to improve transportation; he just wants to keep people trapped in cars.

That just means his opinion is likely well informed. Still an opinion, though.
Don’t get me wrong, I love me some shitting on Musk just as much as the next guy, but the things he has 100% said and done are already egregious. I don’t get why you’d need to mislead people into seeing Musk as something that reality has shown him to be many times over.
I read that book years ago when Musk’s public persona was almost like he came from the future to get humanity back on track. Electric cars, solar, vertically landing spaceships, that time he opened up all of teslas patents to seemingly try and accelerate electric car adoption.
What a bummer how he turned out. That amount of money just poisons your brain. Or let him feel safe lifting the mask. Never have I done such a 180 on an individual. He was supposed to be the one good billionaire solving humanities problems.
As someone who has always been into cars and technology, I’ve never been able to find anything about that tech that Tesla “open sourced”.
It’s just another lie that Musk used one time to juice stock prices or something. I’ve never found anything like a Git with any of their tech. There doesnt’ appear to be any way to read about it or download it from any Tesla websites.
I mean maybe someone can finally provide me a link here, I would love that.
To me, it seems like it’s just more empty words. Googling/Binging/Yahooing “Tesla Open Source” just brings up nine year old articles and the “All Our Patents Are Belong To You” press release. And no actual meat. And an interview with someone from Tesla who qualifies that they’re not actually open source because they’re not publishing confidential engineering data.

Well it was a great PR move even if it led to nothing. Fit the character I hoped he was. Sadly not surprised if this was also a complete fabrication.
NACs is now an open industry standard.
