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.

I'm still partial to "spicy autocomplete" as a good analogy for how these systems actually work that people have more direct experience with. Take those Facebook posts that give you the first few words and say "what does autocomplete say your most used words are?" and make answering the question use as much electricity as a small city.
As much as it is a good phrase, I’m too used to seeing “spicy” as a compliment, so it doesn’t work for me!
