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.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Maybe it's just because it's all actually real, but there's a mind-melting yet quiet horror to this article that I feel Lovecraft could only dream of imagining.

Like some sort of Ionesco's Rhinoceros mixed with a reverse Kafka's Metamorphosis, grotesquely stretched over Primo Levi's If This Is A Man.

That's probably too convoluted of a metaphor to mean much to anyone else, but, fuck, I don't have the energy or the will to unpack it further than that.

To think, when I first read the post title, that my initial reaction was "here we go, techtakes has finally gotten too edgy for me".

I need a cigarette and a scalding hot shower.
