Actually, I think it makes a solid point, even if it is concise. Pithy is the word that comes to mind. And I appreciated the pun.
We constantly hear the mantra about iterating quickly, changing/breaking things, not worrying about initial quality, etc.
But, there's something to be said for investing in quality and striving for excellence every time out of the gate. And from the outside, it's certainly inspirational.
Ok, so guess I just signed up to absorb some of the downvotes. Whatevs.
I agree that he (and you) shouldn't be getting down voted.
But I don't think that "Move Fast and Break Things" necessarily means not striving for excellence every time. To me it or more of, since in Programming there is (usually/almost) no bad side effects of breaking the code, go ahead and try new things. Worst case, revert to your last committed version. And I have to assume that SpaceX has most definitely had ideas that didn't work, or in other words 'broke'. They just hopefully never make it to the actual rocket testing phase!
So in my opinion, you can both "Move fast and break things" and strive for excellence every time out of the gate.
And to comment on the original video, I think it's really impressive seeing a toy helicopter do stuff like this on it's own. And this is a fucking ROCKET!!
