It saddens me to see that the HN crowd had been diluted to such an extent in terms of engineering quality that straight up luddism has become the norm, often accompanied with silly ad hominems.

Sounds utterly insane.

Because it’s the right thing to do? Lmao, right? Who would be stupid enough to even consider doing anything but playing the clout games.

To Mr. Adams - what sort of games would you make today if you were starting from scratch?

If you read his books, it’s obvious he’s doing that on purpose in order to get more attention (which eventually is converted to fatter bottom line for him).

Essentially, the dude is a professional troll.

Good, I hope this is just the start of a crackdown on the whole offensive cybersecurity industry of Israel, which is an extension arm of the intelligence departments of the IDF.

I don’t understand the cult of personality around Aaron. It’s like a self insert for people that fantasize about sticking it to the man or something; the tragic hero, the genius boy who died not realizing his potential, the man who dared to defy the authorities. Yawn.

Fact is Aaron was an angsty teen with an axe to grind with the authorities . Reading Chomsky certainly didn’t help. Acting out childishly by spreading copy righted material, getting caught and whining about how all of this is so unfair…

Look, he was no genius. Genius does not invent reddit; it invents facebook and then proceeds to take over the world because actual, real, genius understands the rules of the game.

Aaron was smart enough to understand just how fucked things are but oh so very dumb to act out on his aggressive impulses. The very same impulses that later lead him to kill himself.

Ironically his suicide accomplished far more than his technical know how could ever hope to achieve.

p.s. aaron was no hero. You dont ever want to be him and you certainly dont want your children to be him. His ideals were pure and correct, but he could not accept we’re living in a world filled with trash humans. Should’ve played the game correctly imho.

This is going to age like fine milk; polemics based on subjective aesthetics always do, no matter how tightly wrapped they are in rationalizations.

Fuck Uckerberg and anything that is related to thus human waste

Hn is no different from 4chan. Prove me wrong.

The irony is that this post itself is ironically toxic. Kekw.
