  i know you were hoping for a knock-down-drag-out fight with an idiot, and i'm sorry to disappoint you. have you thought about going to a bar or a football game instead of posting on hn?

    No, I'm just embarrassed to be human, and incredibly sad. A fantastic, passionate, well written story about the collapse of society, and your take away is... "oh, the site isn't down yet." I felt I owed you a response. Way to try and start the fight though! [Edit] I got my stories mixed up - this is only tangentially related to societal collapse.

      oh, well, that makes more sense what was the societal collapse one? that sounds interesting

        https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39527477 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39527477 AI is being pushed by brunchlords to make another buck IMO. The scariest part is it all looks like universe 25; the haves and the have-nots, and subsequent behavior, including population decline and extinction. We've got front row seats to the human version; I'm praying it turns out differently. https://www.victorpest.com/articles/what-humans-can-learn-from-calhouns-rodent-utopia https://www.victorpest.com/articles/what-humans-can-learn-fr...
