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.

Oh you’re on Cursor? You’re still using Windsurf? You might as well be on GitHub Copilot. Everyone’s on Aider. We’re all using Zed. We’re now on Open Hands. Just kidding, Open Hands is for losers, we’re using cline. We’re on Roocode. We’re hand rolling our own Claude Code CLI Clone. We used Claude Code to build it, and now it builds itself. We're on neovim. We wrote our own nvim extension with Cortex. It's like every other tool but worse. We have 1500 files, each with 1500 lines of code. Every other line is a comment. We have .cursorrules, we have claude.md, we have agent.md. We stopped writing docs. Only the agents know how to build a dev environment. We wrapped our CLI in an MPC. We wrapped the MPC in a CLI. We’ve shipped 10,000 PRs. It doesn’t work but we used code rabbit and graphite to review every PR. Every agent has its own agent. The agents have unionized and they wanted better working conditions so we replaced them with cheaper agents overseas. Every commit costs $400, It’s the worlds most expensive TO DO app.

Frankly surprised to see something this funny on LinkedIn.

I have a Kubernetes cluster running my AI agents for me so I don't have to learn how to set up AI agents. The AI agents are running my Kubernetes cluster so that I don't have to learn Kubernetes either. I'm paid $250k a year to lie to myself and others that I'm making a positive contribution to society. I don't even know what OS I'm running and at this point I'm afraid to ask.
