NICE. This is the capitalism I signed up for…not OpenAI and Anthropic charging $200/mo for an LLM while trying to do regulatory capture.

Why not frame things from the perspective of rewarding good performance? I am sure this will get bought by companies looking to squeeze their workers…and I will not be surprised if this leads to worse outcomes for staff and employers in t

It is amazing what HN mods choose to step in an unflag. Really speaks to the performative ethos around “intellectual curiosity”. Elon making a nazi salute is not interesting but Graham speaking about wokeness is interesting and should be di

Racism would almost never result in any physical violence or removal of rights in Europe? Hahahahah this gave me a great laugh.

McKinsey is a deeply unethical company that has skirted meaningful accountability over the last few decades. I highly recommend reading When McKinsey Comes To Town [1] - it really opened my eyes to how hypocritical and self-serving the cult

This rings true and is also hilarious. I am tired of the AI hype/grift that seems to pervade the industry - funnily enough some of these same promoters were on the blockchain/crypto hype that was going to revolutionize every indus

This is egregious behaviour on the part of Austen. It is not lost on me how Paul Graham blessed this mess.

ELv2 is not an open source license. Why are so many companies using “open source” to scaffold on traction and interest? This framing is disingenuous.

From a friend: Everyone was laid off with no severance or benefits. The CEO put all the blame on a lender in order to explain why there were no severance packages. This sucks because they took it upon themselves to offer staff retention bon

I find it very interesting how he (Ryan Petersen) bragged about Flexport having $1B in cash [2] but now implies that things are tight so they cannot pay any form of severance[1]. Don’t let the SV propaganda fool you. The implicit contract b
