  1. Your irregular occasional reminder...

    "Hacker" "News" is neither.

    Pretty much anything you see there will be misinterpreted, misapplied, misclassified, misattributed, misappropriated, misbegotten, or just plain mistaken. [1] [2]

    Simply reading it makes you less informed about the world. Some would argue it actively makes you dumber. Using it supports Y Combinator, which is most famous for turning deadbeats into leeches and funnelling VC money and power to fascists.

    Get your tech news, opinion, and discussion somewhere else. Anywhere else. The #fediverse is a great alternative. Tell your friends.

    [1] A.K.A. "wrong"
    [2] See what I did there?

  3. Saw a headline about how "San Francisco feels 'post-apocalyptic'" and started to worry, but then I saw it was Elon Musk saying it. Screw that guy; I don't believe anything just because *he* claims it.

    Let me know when anyone whose word is worth listening to says something about San Francisco.
