Why would you make such a prediction, must less post it as if it is informative?
From your bio you have zero expertise in this area (beyond, I suppose, that you follow some narratives on Twitter). Your predictions are literally worthless noise.

- dang 6y agoPlease don't respond to a bad comment by breaking the site guidelines yourself. That just makes this place even worse. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
- dang 6y agoThis comment crosses into personal attack and name-calling. Please don't do those things: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html. Hacker News is a conversation place, an internet watercooler. People want and need to have conversation on things they aren't experts on. Users certainly don't have to be experts to post here—that would be an entirely different kind of forum.
- hn_check 6y agoIt is neither a personal attack or name calling.
- dang 6y agoI get that these points can seem kind of subtle or even vacuous, but it's necessary to understand that they're a thousand times more obvious to the receiver. "literally worthless noise" is calling names in the sense that the HN guidelines use the term: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html. "From your bio you have zero expertise in this area" is crossing into using someone's personal details as ammunition in an argument. https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&query=by%3Adang%20%22personal%20details%22%20&sort=byDate&type=comment https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu... "beyond, I suppose, that you follow some narratives on Twitter" is a nasty personal swipe. Please don't do that kind of thing on HN. If you review the site guidelines you'll notice that the intended spirit is quite different.
