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.

Literally "Have fun being poor" all over again.
Crypto did a speedrun of the history of financial regulation, and now AI dorks are doing a speedrun of crypto.
It's also just less effective this time around. Everyone's afraid of being poor, capitalism as it exists functions based on that, so there's a strong emotion that gets people wrapped up with the NFT hype train.
It's a lot less convincing to go "Have fun being as productive as you are right now, loser.", at least without also going mask off and sounding like a supervillain.
