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.

For those wondering about the LessOnline event, here's the actual plan
My man spent 10 paragraphs failing to describe the intended vibe of the event he's organizing. This is what happens when you only read tweets and substacks, you completely lose the ability to describe the immaterial.
dunno about you, but that absolutely informs me about the event in fullness
No, nope, nononono, nope right off, no, nope.
If the moon gets mad at us that's why
They are a satire of themselves. You really can read only that and perfectly imagine how insufferable the event is.
There is also the 'Creating the Fooming shoggoths after action report' talk where they talk about how hard it was to get the AI to make the songs, and to get all the raunchy popculture references just right without it making references to Ernest Clines poetry.
I'd rather see that than the concert, but that's a pretty low bar to meet. They are spending more time tricking the autocomplete into working than it would take to write goofy songs directly.
Clearly you are not familiar with Clines raunchy poetry.
