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.

The lumina saga continues. https://trevorklee.substack.com/p/luminas-legal-threats-and-my-about
TL;DR: Lumina guy sent Trevor a mean letter and Trevor has reworded some things to protect against libel. He still stands by the original blog post.
The orange site has some fairly milquetoast opinions.
Love to give off snakeoil salesman vibes in a weird faux friendly legal threat.
Surprise Aella reference in those HN comments! (well, surprise that one commenter noted "the Bay Area's most overrated escort", and a replier directly inferred it was her)
Now I wonder if there's an app rating Bay Area escorts...
It's a well recognized rule that every time Lumina comes up, someone has to mention that Aella is connected to the project. Then, someone must make a joke about Lumina adding anti-toothbrushing to her anti-showering arsenal. HN hasn't caught up to the last bit yet.
Tedium and logorrhea in the substack comments, as intended. I wonder how often people on LW use "ink spilled" and "column inches" to describe themselves.
lol @ this austin chen guy, who seems to be an investor in Lumina, as well as a user of the project going like "dude just get on the phone with him, I'm sure he totally won't corner you with threats and such, he's a great guy I swear bro!"
