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.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Raytheon can at least claim they're helping kill terrorists or some shit like that, Artisan's just going out and saying "We ruin good people's lives for money, and we can help you do that too"
Grift tech that claims to do awful shit that ruins everyone's lives, but really just makes Stanford grads sit around pretending to invent something while funneling VC money directly in their bloodstreams.
You'd think these would overflow the evil scale and end up back into being ethical but really they're just doing the same thing as the non-vaporware evil companies with just some extra steps.
Right? At least it the knife missile does what it says on the tin.
Apologies in advance for the Rick and Morty reference, but Artisan seems to be roughly congruent to "Simple Rick" candy bars.
The (poorly executed) distillation of the life's work of actually talented and interesting people, sold as a direct replacement, to fill a void that the customer doesn't even know exists.
