Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

I assume a lot of people are using this moment to do the 'I never liked him' hate.
I disagree with Tante on the second article btw. Dont think people drop others on a dime, Inthink it is a slower process where someone you look up to does more and more small things you dislike (or you reread and start to realize you perhaps had a few too rose colored glasses on) and then your opinion turns. (With some exceptions of course, lot of people have a few things they consider red lines, like a lot of leftwingers not being fan of sex crimes, or people on the right not being a fan of treating poc like equals).
E: i do have a hit skeet on bsky saying 'Guess even Doctorow must eventually enshittify' hope this didn't trigger this blog post. (I meant it both as he got worse, but also im using enshittify intentionally wrong cause Cory said a very weird thing about how anti AI was neoliberal purity culture, which I also think is misusing terms).
