Reading through these threads is cursed. This site supposedly attracts the brightest of us but its all just a bunch of people ignoring the article and screaming that Musk is evil so everything he does must be ignored and villified.
Just really dissapointing hysteria on display here.
It's so depressing how many comments here are just people reacting to words ... Just like they were a small LLM trained to associate "Elon" with words like "Nazi".
HN really needs a better way to surface comments based on value rather than just votes which have become increasingly tribal affiliation driven like Reddit.
> This site supposedly attracts the brightest of us
What gave you that impression?
How bright one can be if they only look at things individually and not the whole system?
