I have no buns to pick here in this discussion really, but doesn't it strike you as slightly pointless to specifically address one particularity of Andrew's blog post while not addressing a single other thing from it, or maybe try to move one step up to about the discussion itself, or something else?
Again, I have no dog in this fight, I "worship" neither of you, I'm just curious about the whole conversation apparently degrading rather than anyone of you trying to step in a different direction.
Bun donates $60,000 per year [month] and Jarred acts with graciousness and soft tones when talking to outside parties. Why do you think it's Jarred's obligation to continue after being insulted for professional dishonesty?
Isn't it Andrew's obligation to show that he was worth that much kindness to begin with?
You want to see him address being "a stinky manager", having "beginner energy", choosing to take VC as opposed to "a solid living via crowdfunding", or "already writing slop well before he had access to LLMs"?
Those are all opinions where arguing about them isn't going to be productive.
Countering the accusation of "an outright fabrication" on the other hand is worthwhile because it's a claim that can be countered.
If somebody called me a liar for something that demonstrably wasn't a lie I wouldn't let that stand, either.
