Hackers and Founders meetup near me has become mostly just founders and they are all high on the LLM fumes. It's very weird.

- martin-t 2y agoI don't even see why "hackers" and "founders" should be related in any way. The hacker attitude (or approach to life) is that of curiosity and the need to build and create. The founder attitude AFAICT is how to get competent builders together and make money (on the positive end of the spectrum) or how to extract value from people instead of creating it (on the negative end of the spectrum). I googled it and got "Hackers/Founders is a community of tech founders." I think that is sufficiently telling of what it's really about. It's another scam to "get those socially inept nerds to work for us and make us money without even realizing they are getting less than they deserve".
