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.

The problem is definitely that screens are bad for people and social media is inherently bad, not that we have handed over power in our society to rightwing silicon valley moguls with these kind of batshit crazy beliefs, and not just general power over society... power to shape how we socialize with one another online.

sigh

I mean someone like Steve Jobs was essentially the """best""" case scenario of this type of person being given power in society and Steve Jobs was incredibly problematic as a person on multiple levels... including that he believed batshit crazy things.

"He annoyingly feels younger than me!" the 30-year-old tells triple j hack.

This man is a fool.

He has been cycling and "cleaning" his blood, replacing some of his blood with other people's blood, taking a hundred pills a day, undergoing dozens of risky, unnecessary, surgeries and living in constant terror of death, for a decade.

He says that he got an autoimmune disease after all this, not because he's triggering the shit out of his own body with a constant barrage of foreign bodies and fear, but because a decade ago he used to eat "poorly" and raising a kid was "stressful". He thinks that "damage" just showed up 10 years later, and it definitely couldn't be the bullshit he's doing now.

I am one million percent behind anti-aging research. I am one million percent behind people doing whatever bio-hacking they want to themselves. Just, don't listen to this guy, he's an idiot. Listen to a biologist that researches all the crazy shit this man did, and disects his corpse.
