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.

standard “fuck off programming.dev” ban with a side of who the fuck cares. deepseek isn’t the good guys, you weird fucks don’t have to go to a nitpick war defending them, there’s no good guys in LLMs and generative AI. all these people are grifters, all of them are gaming the benchmarks they designed to be gamed, nobody’s getting good results out of this fucking mediocre technology.
I'm not arguing against any of that.
I hate LLMs, never really used them, and I dislike people who do for anything.
But I still like that DeepSeek wiped some of the bubble on the stock market, and feel like the disinfo around it is just OpenAI/MS/nvidia FUD to pretend they still matter.
Nothing more.
