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.

For actually-good tech, you want our NotAwfulTech community

Memoirs of the almost a year I lasted at Google. The name of that year? 2008. Yeah. Topics include: Third World, precariat, tech elitism, queerness, surveillance, capitalism.

Y'all encouraged me to submit this as a full post, and I clearly overcommited to this blog so I hope TechTakes fits for it lol

A surprising number of the commenters seem to be at least considering the intended message... which makes the contrast of the number of comments failing at basic reading comprehension that much more absurd (seriously, it's absurd how many comments somehow missed that the author was living in and working from Brazil and felt it didn't reflect badly on them to say as much in the HN comments).
