Hacker News - It's not for hackers and it's hardly news.

I've improved the section on Doreen Michele beyond what I'd expected. I'll work on the others soon.
 
I don't mind hacker news. They usually have some interesting news stories and other things. I don't mind the comments on some articles. There's usually a few good comments buried in there on programming articles or old computer stuff. I've read some pretty cool stories on there from programmers from back in the old days. But on most articles the comments are trash. The intensely regimented community there is weird and dang's a faggot. The worship they have their for Paul Graham is almost cultlike. The comments on any of his essays biggest circle jerk of praise I've seen outside trannies affirming eachother.
 
HackerNews is better than reddit and twitter but still full of seething impotent troons and other unpleasant terminally online tech types. Good thread.
Oh hey it's one of the butt buddies of Hoaxin' Hector Martin. He's been talked about a few times here:
nigga literally created /r9k/ and was responsible for nuking /pol/ the first time

I can't believe you for not looking into this even further... One Google image search, and you can already see how this Foone guy is so much of a massive fucking faggot?!?!

Since Keffals retweeted this fat faggot, here's his image for everyone to see. This dude is clearly a maladjusted troon!

Felted.
foone hates his tweets being posted on "the orange site" and has done this before. He's such a prolific tweeter doing so many expensive things with retro gear I can't figure it out.

EDIT: typo
I think the only reason he doesn't have a thread is because he's boring and mostly keeps to himself and his retro tech autism sperging.

Good eye. Replies are great too:
Lol. Damn, the 0 interest rate era/tech bubble really made you guys cocky didnt it
You're surrounded by the intellectuals who aren't clever enough to figure out how to surround themselves with brilliant people without paying the SF premium.
 
I've made a few more adjustments, and have started to spread out the screenshots a tad. I still need to build more evidence for dang's behaviour, but I'll probably leave Peter Roberts section as-is. Paul Graham's section is fine to me.

I'd like to mention the woes of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) now. It's so amusing to see the daring capitalists, who believe themselves to be above the law when it becomes inconvenient, begin to cry out for government assistance when a bank run happens. Silicon Valley is supposed to be all about disruption, but I suppose it hits differently when they're affected. For an example of what I mean, here's an article describing how Y Combinator darling DoorDash commits mass fraud while predating on small restaurants (archive). Oh, and it's important to note DoorDash and these similar businesses are still unprofitable.

The gist of this is DoorDash pretends to be a restaurant or to have a business relationship with a restaurant, and then siphons away people who would've called or visited directly. This, understandably, negatively impacts the business that now has dissatisfied customers who are accustomed to the artificially-low prices set by DoorDash. This restaurant in particular was owned by someone who knew someone who knew about this disgusting nonsense, however, and he established that the restaurant owner can get some of that venture capital used to attract customers and grow for himself:

They do this with impunity, because they know small business are either ignorant of their criminal trademark violations, or too small to be able to stop them. This is an example of how they want those nasty laws to get out of their way, for progress. Now according to Garry Tan (archive), Uncle Sam needs to bail out the bank or else innovations in law violation like DoorDash will be set back, and we can't have that:

All little startups, tomorrow's Google's and Facebooks, will be extinguished if we don't find a fix.
Oh I'm crying at the thought that the next big monopolies that try to spy on and harm me could be strangled in the cradle like this.

Here are two Hacker News discussions on this:
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35100743 (archive)
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35096877 (archive)

The first subject is written by Garry Tan, president and CEO of Y Combinator, and so unimportant I only just now learned this. He's crying about this therein.

One actually has a nice joke inside, but it's a joke from someone on Twitter:
Imagine raising $100m for your AI enabled dog washing app - and your bank sets it on fire before you can.

Still, this has the potential to knock over quite a lot of dominoes. A lot of startups sell to other startups which sell to other startups. One example is Stripe, which does nothing besides help other startups collect payment. How Stripe could fail here is obvious, and they've been compared to a seller of shovels to prospective gold miners; well, that can't happen if people stop mining for gold.

The fall can't come hard enough, if it comes.

One strange observation is that HN is simultaneously hated by trannies for being "transphobic" but is filled to the brim with corporate bootlickers, I don't know why though. Also they seem to randomly block tor nodes so I get a blank page when I'm trying to view something.
That’s your standard fare for the Austinite Twitterati new right lorded over by people like Theel, Elong and Marcass. Everything of note in that subculture is a function of glass egoes plus a touch-and-go contact with reality. It’s why you’ll see people ostensibly coming down to “do research” and a year later they find themselves firmly up some rich guy’s ass because they think that’s how you earn your dues. And you know, maybe it is, hell. The whole scene is run like a fucking mafia.

For some reason can’t quote the OP @UERISIMILITUDO’s last reply, but on the dominoes, I will say this: AI is the last stop before the fall. I expect it to be an implosion and all the tech bros will have no fucking idea they stopped being relevant. Expect them all to get 10× hairier and more drug-addled and destitute in the next 5 years, the sick irony pissing on all their cash and affluence they have. Remember the old SF game of homeless or billionaire? Pretty soon it’s gonna be both!
