I am going to forcefeed you the Mona Lisa. The chances of me being able to do so may be extremely slim, but do you really want to take that chance?
Very based:
With all the damning evidence, the story was ready. Most reporters would now email their subjects for comment, but Woo elevated the story to performance art. He asked Austen for a recorded interview, without revealing its nature. Austen, lulled into a false sense of security by tech press puff pieces, agreed. What followed was the most riveting hour of tech journalism I've ever heard.
The premiere venture capitalists of our time, drawing from near infinity riches during ZIRP, and the most innovative thing they have is student loan debt racket but faster.
Did YC seriously think because a growth hacker was in charge, you could value a private school like its an overinflated tech company? PG going mask off to endorse slavery (sorry, "trying out a worker") for a hack like Austen is so many levels of brainworm capitalism, how has Silicon Valley not sunk into the ocean.
It's "reasonable" in context, I just thought it's funny that rbuttcoin would be headpatting AI at all, since its basically the exact same people pushing AI as the people pushing crypto with the exact same motives.
This is quite minor, but it's very funny seeing the intern would-be sneerers still on rbuttcoin fall for the AI grift, to the point that its part of their modscript copypasta
Or in the pinned mod comment:
AI does have some utility and does certain things better than any other technology, such as:
- The ability to summarize in human readable form, large amounts of information.
- The ability to generate unique images in a very short period of time, given a verbose description
tfw you're anti-crypto, but only because its a bad investing opportunity.
Imagine being such losers that you get owned by the fucking Guardian, and as your brilliant followup, you start screaming "I'M NOT OWNED"

Orange site post with a bunch of people saying burnout is a learning experience and that its okay to be perpetually depressed because it makes you more disruptive.
I don't have anything clever to say about this.
Don't sell me potential if you're not a battery manufacturer.
It must be exciting when you find out your startup is in the only industry that's in VCs sightlines, and it must be fucking exhausting crafting a pitch for them.
The VERA story of pet euthanasia reinforces my bias that there is nothing good to be gained at an industry conference, so I'm tempted to believe it's true. Either it's truly insane marketing copy crafted to suck up sociopathic VCs attention because these people live in hell, or it's actually real and they're happy that they've created ~~Uber~~ a killbot for dogs because these people live in hell.
Even when you luck out and somehow get a chance to win at capitalism by a coincidence of destiny, it still eats your soul.
ScarJo being what takes down Saltman's wannabe Sky~~net~~ isn't what I have on my bingo card, but ~~would be~~ is insanely funny.
You know that Factorio is a fictional video game, right?
