You're the one who cares about his opinions on things, not me. And yeah dweb has kinda been a mess since venture capitalists took a two-billion-dollar shit on us and called it web3. Whatever, we'll bounce back.

Why do you think I care about his opinions? You're the one who wants to work for him. People in his employ who don't simp for him don't last long. Frankly, I think this is all hilarious. I don't even use twitter. If you want to work for a guy who thinks 2fa is "bloatware," and fires people for disagreeing with him, I guess I can see the appeal of having ring-side seating as the company burns to the ground. https://www.smartcompany.com.au/industries/information-technology/twitter-two-factor-authentication-elon-musk/ https://www.smartcompany.com.au/industries/information-techn...

  I think you care about his opinions because you continue to use them as a rhetorical appeal even after I point out that it doesn't work. "Simp" is an ugly word that makes you look stupid, misogynistic or homophobic depending on your audience. If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. If you're not ready to watch a company collapse around you, then tech is a bad career choice.

    > "Simp" is an ugly word that makes you look stupid, misogynistic or homophobic depending on your audience. Isn't that the direction you want "the conversation" to go? Because that's where your daddy is driving. If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. > If you're not ready to watch a company collapse around you, then tech is a bad career choice. I've been working in this industry for 25 years, child, and I haven't spent a day unemployed.

      I mean, I think the word simp is funny but it's not an HN word. I know lots of ugly words that I wouldn't use on HN. Congrats on the 25-year streak.

      Remember that two wrongs don't make a right. If you use offensive slurs to justify your disagreement towards what you perceive is the direction of (possibly more offensive) speech on Twitter that doesn't make you right, it makes you double-wrong.
