This is a Hacker News -> Reddit/r/RealTesla post.

Good to see the "original" RealTesla getting such large attention. Over on the Reddit, there's over 3000+ upvotes, while most of the discussion on Hacker News is supportive of the story.

While Hacker News has [flagged] the story (thereby removing it from the frontpage), it shows that even in the high-tech industry / San Francisco venture capitalism tech-discussion site, Elon Musk's reputation has really nosedived this year.

A million things could have happened to the check: burned in a fire, accidentally thrown away, stolen by an employee.

As long as it wasn't a fraudulent check, the law considers it payment.

On a similar note, a landlord agency demanded second payment after an employee stole the rent money. The courts laughed them out.
