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.

the concept that copyright is about art or artistic value and not money, is about as attached to reality as the ai technorapture
this barely has to even be argued, in spirit or in practice. even the concept of "ownership" as ascribed to creators is basically just a right to sell the work or sublicense said "ownership"
@ebu
"the concept that copyright is about art or artistic value and not money"
I didn't say it was.
"Real artists do it for love, not money" is as stupid as saying "Real artists shoot heroin and have untreated mental illness."
Real artists have bills to pay and families to feed.
you definitely did in fact say that the idea that "copyright is about trading art for money" is bollocks. that is in fact a thing you said, straightforwardly
compare and contrast with "real artists do it for love, not money", which is a thing nobody in this entire thread said
and wouldn't you know it, a complete devolution into full-tilt """debate""" shadowboxing is my cue to turn off notifications. best of luck in the ring, i hear the spectre of communism has a nasty left hook
