alt Hacker NewsHe was being petty, but I wouldn't use the terms "name-calling" or "vitriol".
It's a very bad look, to put it lightly, to throw around the terms 'clueless', 'obtuse', and 'useless', and to tell people they will be replaced. In defense of anything, not just AI.
Edit: Interestingly, the parent was edited to be even more hostile since I commented (usually it's the opposite).
>He was being petty
Making false accusations is more than just "being petty".
>It's a very bad look
HN isn't a beauty pageant and I'm not running for office to value looks over facts. I call things as they are, no BS.
>to throw around the terms 'clueless', 'obtuse', and 'useless'
Then people shouldn't act 'clueless', 'obtuse', and be 'useless' if they wouldn't like to be called out for that. If someone see themselves as matching those descriptions, that then that's on them, nothing I can do about it.
>and to tell people they will be replaced
Well, if people can't do a google/LLM search before attacking people with venom, they ARE useless, and will 100% be replaced, since employers have no use for toxic people who can't use modern tools in the labor force.
And this isn't an accusation or something, this is simply the truth on how the labor market works. That's why there are so many unemployed/NEETs/homeless people. I don't want them to be replaced and unemployed, but they are/will be through their own actions/inactions. Again, nothing I can do about that, this is just how it is, and I'm just calling it out.
