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.

So that answers that, I guess
Seems inappropriate to laugh about this. People spending a fortune on a worthless ugly monkey png deserve ridicule, but not permanent eye damage just because they went to a party with their fellow marks.
good call. I edited my post a little so hopefully it reflects my point better — eyes are delicate as fuck, and it’s very foolish for yuga labs and some of their bagholders to try and minimize how dangerous this situation was, since getting timely medical care after severe eye damage is crucial if you want to keep your sight (I may have some recent experience with that last part)
Did you try to look the basilisk in the eye
Don't look at the abysss
damn...it makes too much sense that it's cheaper in bulk... I was giving them the benefit of the doubt that they paid more thinking it would be some kind of premium black light.
hmm, when I looked up the medical term the resources assured me symptoms were temporary - but if this is the third time this specific thing has happened recently, he might know from experience that this will not go well long term
Yeah I guess it might depend on repeat exposure per person?
I also couldn’t find much ito dosing discussions around the condition, so I have no idea what the effect impact of this may be at 1h vs 4h vs 8h+ etc
Either which way, remarkable clusterfuck
contrast with the cryptobro toxic positivity from the attendees quoted in the 404 article:
