I listened to an interview with andreesen once, and that dude is dumb as fucking rocks. I understand how llms work better than this dude

Why does he look like Notch without the g*mer energy?

[–] Parsani@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have no idea who that is. Andreesen mainly exudes boomer energy

The alt right bigot who made Minecraft.

Ah like "look at all this great shit I literally can't explain further because I'm the money man, I'm literally just here yo make money but convince myself it's good ol American dream libertarianism" sort of energy?

alt right

I stopped using that term about a week after Charlottesville. I started to call everybody on the right-wing - right-wingers except those rare times I use "conservative" because that's the term the US media insists on even though it's ridiculous to call fascists conservative.

I usually just call them nazis and wait for the inevitable "the alt right aren't nazis" slop from libs.

Ah, I see.

Kinda, he's an "I'm making the world a better place" guy peppered with "I was a coder 30 years ago" confidence. Guy also has e/acc in his twitter bio, which I hope makes everyone finally convinced that x/acc is deeply uncool

Oh the willy wonker doublethink capitalist meets veteran coder trope?

Lmao I'm just making these up now trying to home in on the type of person you mean without having to waste time listening to them.

I'm out of the loop, what is "x/acc"?

Had to look it up too. Looks like it's some LessWrong nonsense, and he calls himself an "effective accelerationist".
