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.

Can you imagine selling something like a firewall appliance with a setting called "Yolo Mode", or even a tax software or a photo organizer or anything that handles any data, even if only of middling importance, and then still expect to be taken seriously at all?
Setting my oven to YOLO Mode and dying in a fire 7 seconds later
I set my car to YOLO more by pointing the vehicle roughly the direction I wish to travel and then dropping a brick on the accelerator.
We already have this, it's just a Tesla with "FSD" on
I thought FSD only works if there are kids around for the car to aim at.
My tax prep software definitely has a mode called "give me Deus Ex"
Yolo charging mode on a phone, disable the battery overheating sensor and the current limiter.
I suspect that they added yolo mode because without it this thing is too useless.
