This slop is exactly what ChatGPT spits out when it's leading you down the hole of AI psychosis.

You got me curious now, in what ways do you think you are racist? Racists usually don't think they are racists, I would think, but maybe I'm wrong
My views have changed 180° once I moved into a ghetto. Within two years I witnessed three shootings, and had my belongings stolen twice. There's trash everywhere, and kids are revving engines at 2AM and nobody cares. I don't buy the excuse "the problem is poverty and lack of chances" because it just doesn't hold up when you compare people across countries. You cannot tell me that a Moroccan kid growing up in Paris somehow has fewer chances in life than a white kid growing up in Rădoiești-Deal. Besides, I don't understand how poverty explains the inability to bring your trash to the trash can.
Being gay is literally illegal in almost all Muslim countries, many of them have death punishment for being gay. I don't see a reason why I'd be morally obliged to respect that as a valid way to construct a society. If they want me dead, I want them dead too, tit for tat.
I see countries like Japan or Korea heavily opposing immigration despite demographic crisis. I don't think they're making the wrong decision.
> Oh god people actually go on a hinge date to axe throwing and think it’s the real world. Hinge dates and axe throwing are not my world. I also didn't go to pop band concerts and meat market bars in the olden times. I don't judge the people who did, at least now I don't.
> Oh god people actually go on a hinge date to axe throwing and think it’s the real world. My experience with dating apps was mostly awful, but then I met my wife on one. Now we’re happily married with 3 kids. Axe throwing is just a business fad like so many before it. This started long before the internet. Pinball arcades, video game arcades, tanning salons, self storage, frozen yogurt. The list goes on and on. Not…
This really does - I don't mean it in a disparaging way - read like a mid-life crisis writing. Having to come to terms with the fact that the "old world" is not the current world anymore, which is too bad, because you like the old one, and you don't quite fit in the new one either. This feeling has existed across generations and most of us have to go through it eventually. The world, however, is not any less real tha…
It's more aligned with Baudrillard's concept of Hyperreality, than that I think.
Uh, movies are definitely not more "real" than YouTube videos and they're just as passive.

If you ever saw this guy program you know he's very competent so IMHO that reflects badly on twitter, tbh.
I think the more likely explanation is that he's just not as familiar with frontend web development and react, so he underestimated the difficulty. He was asking for help on Twitter for how to make pills inside of a text field. His failure was caused by a knowledge check rather than a skill check.

People flexing on HN not knowing who geohot is. Sad.
I think you're being accused of being a sockpuppet.
but we're talking about geohot here, entirely possible he built an agent to handle all criticism
From the article: "... there is no other Internet, just a place with five corporate towns and some Chinese ones that are really hard to visit if you don’t speak Chinese." Yeah, that's only true if you don't hang out in the old-style Internet. I spend most of my time on blogs, reading and replying to discussions on wide-ranging topics, talking to interesting people who know a lot more than I do about many subjects (in…
How do you find the non walled garden places?
in some cases, build your own.
This reads more like geohot finally hit the point where he can't stand comments more so than it has to do with what is in the text. Idiots and trolls in the audience put real mental toll on streamers - facing and tackling mean comments straight on don't make them mental Hulks. If anything that wears them down and mentally weaken them. But: what exactly is the problem if AI was going to exceed us humans in intelligenc…
geohot is living in a world where he is reacting to their discussions, instead of harvesting them. of course he burns out.
the game streamers just go LOL and the onlyfans types go "oh honey" and blow it off -- and watch their wallet fill with $$$
but george is making this interactive and isn't harvesting $$$, he feels a need to engage. knowledge workers see all criticism as a challenge, part of the "engineer's disease thing" and can't disconnect, and doesn't have the satisfaction of walking out with 300k a year from the stream.
