By the way, in case you're missing it, Marc Andreessen has been showing himself up as a really ignorant fool. Again.

@ianbetteridge I have been missing it, but I don't tend to think of him as doing anything but this anyhow

[klausfiend@mstdn.ca]

@ianbetteridge The bar for him to do that is unbelievably low. Fascism would honestly be slightly more tolerable if these goons weren't all such epic dipshits.

[freya@social.highenergymagic.net]

@ianbetteridge oh no what´s he doing this time

[sdarlington@mas.to]

@ianbetteridge Oh, I wouldn’t say I was missing it.

[ianbetteridge@social.vivaldi.net]

@freya Apparently no one did introspection before 400 years ago. Which would be news to, say, Marcus Aurelius.

@ianbetteridge I'm sorry what the even fuck?

[freya@social.highenergymagic.net]

@ianbetteridge holy shit taht man is the dumbest motherfucker going

[ianbetteridge@social.vivaldi.net]

@freya He's really just packaging his own personality trait (a refusal to dwell on the past) as a grand historical thesis about "great men," arguing that the kind of person who builds empires doesn't sit around quietly questioning themselves.

Again, that would have been news to EMPEROR Marcus Aurelius.

[ianbetteridge@social.vivaldi.net]

@freya Just when I think he's reached the bottom of the pool of stupid, he manages to go down a whole new level

[freya@social.highenergymagic.net]

@ianbetteridge can we set him on fire?

[freya@social.highenergymagic.net]

@ianbetteridge gods, he makes a 2b parameter LLM look like a fucking genius

@ianbetteridge @freya <Aristotle raises his hand at the back.>

[ianbetteridge@social.vivaldi.net]

@bjn @freya Some kid called Hamlet was pretty partial to a bit of introspection.

[meyerweb@mastodon.social]

@ianbetteridge An unexamined life of unearned success yields unwarranted self-confidence. Tale as old as time.

[jef@mastodon.social]

@ianbetteridge I think every time he pops up we should photoshop his dome to be even pointier.

[idlestate@toot.cat]

@ianbetteridge

At this stage I can barely work up any feeling about Andreessen but have to wonder about his interviewer

[klausfiend@mstdn.ca]

@sdarlington @ianbetteridge Came here to say this. To suggest I was "missing it" is to imply a charitable feeling on my part that is wholly absent in my person.
