dang has dunked on the quality of HN discourse remaining repetitive and boring to him, never really changing in the aggregate over the years.

He might consider seeking novel to him work routines rather than complain everyone else is prosaic. I quit treating systems like pets a while ago, while he tends the same flock.

If everyone else’s figurative identity can be a target why not PG, dang, etc.

“Thanks” for being over educated systems admins like many of us, I guess?

You have admin access to the database that includes the comments I refer to; write queries.

Self policing is a powerful tool for self improvement. Go reflect on asking people here to see the “poetry” in their livelihood being usurped by VC backed technology which coincidentally help’s guarantee your employment and rather trashes the environment, eh?

Other themes include finding run of the mill political speak as banal, despite such memes being how the vast majority of the population understands the world, as if you’re the High Mind we should all be soothed by; personally you’re just another over privileged first worlder to me shrug one of billions on Earth. The figurative identity you feel yourself to be is shrug to me. The energy SV projects to everyone else.

I get the difference between theory backed by evidence versus spoken traditions of politics, but it’s not unreasonable to describe some of your comments as tone deaf, lacking empathy for those made anxious by the rapid economic and social change, from your Ycombinator backed ivory tower.

The audience is here to rescue your figurative identity though by burying reasonable takes on your past comments about them. You should be thankful you have yourself such a self loathing flock.

You’re one particle among billions. Whether the rest of us are titillating you correctly is not on us. It’s on you to find a more titillating routine. Having moved from CE, to general SWE, and into ML backed biology research, if I held onto one role for so long I’d question if I am responsible for coloring my view in the same shade of grey.

You even asked for a response and they hivemind flagged it to spare you.

Puritanical white knighting is at an all time high among meaningless meat bags.
