Grok is a little niche lingo word from, at this point, older programmers and coders meaning to fully immerse yourself in some kind of new programming language or methodology/technique, and gain a comprehensive understanding of it.
Grok isnt specifically from or for old programmers, it’s mainly old slang from nerds from the 60’s. It hails from Stranger in a Strange Land a sci-fi book written by Heinlein in 61’.
Tbh, I think his understanding of Grok probably comes from the book. While Heinlein was a brilliant writer… He was also a rabid libertarian, and I can see some aspects of his writings resonating with Elon.

The sexism is pretty bad too.
