HN has a 10X persona bias. (A bias. There are many personalities etc.) In turn one of the recurring memes is the AI-enabled Senior Developer who gets superpowers based on their experience. The junior developer, curiously, does not get superpowers, because they just lean on the machines and learn nothing. But the senior developer by the power of pre-AI experience (doing stuff) gets wings to fly with.

Regular people are just, I don’t know, I guess they are token whales waiting to get washed ashore.

Born just in the right time to both get experience doing stuff and also to experience wearing their wings. It’s that simple.

That’s the biggest thing for HN folks to at least be aware of.
