product feedback on the internet be like "I hate it and you and I think you're ontologically evil for creating it and if you ever take it away from me I will kill you"

Why would you even want C-levels at a company. You should at least want As or Bs

a hacker news comment saying "hiring pfraze was the biggest mistake the company ever made"

which one of you posted this

Getting word that the new leadership is swapping everyone’s alts and mains. Mains are now alts and alts are mains. I didn’t know he had the power to do this

neoluddism empowers the new masters

seize the models of production

ideally in a way that enables local hardware but if you need to pool resources then perhaps via a coop

real best of times worst of times energy

a claude code session where the user typed "yas queen" and claude responded "glad you like it!"

I won't tell people I'm at my ballmer peak but there will be signs

too much first-hand experience of this cycle:

- members of group X are incredible assholes to person Y
- person Y responds in kind
- "wow you hate group X"

no dawg they hate assholes

me: why so you can fund my company and then slag me off in the press too
robin williams: it's not your fault

stop being an asshole to people on the internet

terminator except the AI is a twee anime bot that the audience falls in love with

we take human advancement for granted. a gun would kill a medieval peasant

so this whole latest round of ai coding discourse was lobbed at us from the AP world and, straight up, if AP wants to be the AI haters protocol and atproto is the AI embracers I'm good with that

ButtLover420: Did you order the AI coding policy

me: I did the job --

ButtLover420: -- Did you order the AI coding policy!?

me: YOURE GOD DAMN RIGHT I DID

I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a claude subscription and crank out your own app. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to

I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very website that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it.

You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that claude max -- you need me on that claude max.

We use words like "bugs," "code," "quality." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent making you apps. You use them as a punch line.

You weep for crafstmanship, and you curse the vibecoders. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that hand-coding's death, while tragic, probably shipped features; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, ships features.

Son, we live in a world that needs code, and that code has to be written by devs with computers. Who's gonna do it? You? You, ButtLover420?

actually, yeah

I only use artisanal hand-coded protocols

you can tell atproto is vibecoded because all of the specs and sourcecode were written by [checks commit dates] time travelers with claude

a breakdown of AI adoption by language to tell us which ones suck the most

I know nothing about code but just looking at him, I can tell

The discourse has led to claims that Why’s code is bad, that he’s a bad coder, and I support this
