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.

I hate AI as much as anyone, but this article is shitty fearmongering. Buried at the end it admits there's actually no price increase, there's just a new tier with optional features.
Not really fear mongering, when Microsoft has proven that the "for now" is held up. Like the whole Recall fiasco. They canceled it "for now", and now it's published. Their "for now" is actually "for just right now, until heat subsides". Microsoft can go suck on a tailpipe.
Australian users are already reporting they can't actually find the "classic" option at all.
congrats on just learning about the corporation named “Microsoft”
now fuck off
consider the raw, stupid energy of reporting me to myself for violating a civility rule that doesn’t exist and never will
Trump won dontcha know now it's time for C I V I L I T Y
that’s absolutely the ploy — in almost every instance, civility rules are used to punish marginalized people while giving polite fascists a pass (and the ability to normalize the behavior of impolite fascists)
We should harness this and power ChatGPT with it
"for now" doing some extremely heavy lifting there
