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.

Musk appropriating "grok" from Stranger in a Strange Land is on-brand for him, seeing as he fundamentally misunderstands Banks' Culture series and reduces it to "the one with the cool ship names".
Edited for clarity
@gerikson @cstross
Yeah he has no self-awareness at all that in the culture universe he’d be taken out by Zakalwe
@szbalint @gerikson @cstross
But Joiler Veppers was taken out by Lededje Y'breq.
@resuna @szbalint @gerikson @cstross IIRC by-as-in-close-to Lededje Y'breq, but by-as-in-responsible-for the avatar of the Falling Outside the Normal Moral Constraints.
But 100% with you on Musk = Veppers
