Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

I don't know shit about these stats, and everything can be debated, but just wanted to say: don't let people get you down.

Feeling positive/hopeful isn't always appropriate about everything, but people in here are acting like it's a mental illness.

Sure, people simply don’t like to change their minds. I’ve already conceded several points that I was incorrect about, because learning is part of being a healthy human.

It’s best to make conclusions from the statistics instead of groupthink or gut feelings, and the statistics say that there’s still a lot of good happening in the world right now.
