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.

People who struggle to find basic things via web searches. That is, before the somewhat recent ratcheted up enshitification

This is you: LLMs are good, except they are enshittifying search, which follows from the fact that LLMs are bad. But actually, even though they are bad, I know how to use them, so LLMs are good, actually. Normies are dumb and I’m better than them and it doesn’t matter if search is good or bad, normies r dumb and normies will never learn to google good which they can learn from me, a LLM understander who is very smart

You misunderstood me.

The enshitification I was referring to is the increasingly bad, non LLM search results Google is returning.

I've said this elsewhere but a good 90% of my searches don't involve LLM results whatsoever.

Normies also don't seem to know what should stay a "standard" search (most searches, IMO) and what might be useful to utilize an LLM for.

I think your response is a bit aggressive TBH.

nah, an aggressive response is me telling you to fuck yourself as I ban you for a second(!) time for making these exact terrible fucking posts

I’ve saved many hours of work with it, in languages I don’t really even know.

maybe by next ban you’ll figure out why your PRs keep getting closed

fucking imagine coming back to a place you’re not welcome with this “eeehhh you’re being a bit aggressive tbh” shit
