Sure - and people can engage with you on that. For example, is that true of your experience? In general HN has been enamored by AI, with the sheen falling off only in the past quarter. This has matched with most people on HN being far more

See, you are in “not even wrong” territory. This is like someone planning a green cheese mining mission to the moon. So when people choose not to engage, you assume that is simply a sign of the fitness of your argument. Not that the argumen
