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.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Semi-relevant, Matthew Garrett has won a court case against the kooks running Techrights:

About the only positive thing you can say about Schestowitz (and probably his wife) is that they are rabidly anti-AI, but that is only because they are also rabidly against anyone who does not subscribe to their personal purity-test vision of Free Software (basically it's them, RMS, and maybe his parrot).
I have an unhealthy interest in them, because during the Andrew Lee putsch they were basically on his side, until he fucked even them, and I kinda drifted into their IRC server to see what was up. It was my unwelcome introduction to the toxic underbelly of FLOSS, with rampant RMS-worship, misogyny, racism and incipient techno-fascism. I ducked out quite quickly.
Tellingly, Techrights is all in on the Gemini protocol.
for what it's worth schestowitzes don't seem to understand that they lost a defamation case and should stop digging.
That seems potentially unwise.
such words never stopped dr. roy before.
